Answer:
1. Exothermic reaction
2. Is being released
3. The energy comes from the change in energy between reactants and products
Explanation:
The reaction is producing energy. A reaction that produce energy is called a <em>Exothermic reaction.</em>
<em />
As the energy is produced, the energy is being <em>released.</em>
<em />
As you can see in the image, the energy of the reactants is higher than the energy of the products. This change of energy in the chemicals produce the production of energy as heat.
<span>Oxidation is the loss of electrons and corresponds to an increase in oxidation state. The reduction is the gain of electrons and corresponds to a decrease in oxidation state. Balancing redox reactions can be more complicated than balancing other types of reactions because both the mass and charge must be balanced. Redox reactions occurring in aqueous solutions can be balanced by using a special procedure called the half-reaction method of balancing. In this procedure, the overall equation is broken down into two half-reactions: one for oxidation and the other for reduction. The half-reactions are balanced individually and then added together so that the number of electrons generated in the oxidation half-reaction is the same as the number of electrons consumed in the reduction half-reaction.</span>
The correct answer is industrial smog. This type of smog exists in coal power plants which creates smoke and sulfur dioxide which may mix with fog creating a thick blanket of haze. Sulfur dioxide is one primary component of an industrial smog.
