Fantom [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

A combustion  involves the reaction of a fuel with oxygen (O₂). During the reaction of combustion of hydrogen (H₂), H₂ reacts with O₂ to form water (H₂O). The <em>balanced chemical equation</em> is the following:

2 H₂(g) + O₂(g) → 2 H₂O(g)

According to the chemical equation, 2 moles of H₂O are obtained from the reaction of 2 moles of H₂ with 1 mol of O₂. All reactants and products are in the gaseous phase.

Question 3 of 5
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

A. More mass

C. Shorter distance between them

Explanation:

The two characteristics of a body experiencing greater gravitational force are that they have mass and a shorter distance between them.

This is conformity with Newton's law of universal gravitation.

The law states that "every object attracts one another with a force that is directly proportional to their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them".

This law implies that the more the mass of two bodies, the more the gravitational force of attraction. And that the shorter the square of the distance between them, the more the attraction.
