The steel rods will enable the concrete to form without any bumps and it will add shape to the cement and strength, so no odd massive lumps are formed.

That is what I think anyways :)

Lead(IV) nitrate is formed via a single replacement reaction between lead and nitric acid. What is the coefficient of hydrogen g
Bas_tet [7]

Answer : The coefficient of hydrogen gas in the balanced equation is, 4

Explanation :

Balanced chemical reaction : It is defined as the reaction in which the number of atoms of individual elements present on reactant side must be equal to the product side.

Single replacement reaction : It is defined as a reaction in which the the more reactive element replace the less reactive element.

The balanced chemical reaction will be:

Pb+4HNO_3\rightarrow Pb(NO_3)_4+4H^+

In this reaction, lead is more reactive element than hydrogen so it can displace hydrogen element form its compound and form lead(IV) nitrate.

Thus, the coefficient of hydrogen gas in the balanced equation is, 4

Which force always attracts objects to each other?
GrogVix [38]

Gravity is a force that always attracts or pulls objects toward each other without direct contact or impact. Gravitational attraction depends on the mass of the two objects and the distance they are apart. Objects on Earth are pulled toward the center of Earth.

Energy from the Sun contributes to these two main factors that create ocean currents: _____ and _____.
BigorU [14]
The sun also heats up the air in the atmosphere at the equator. This air will move towards the poles & cool over time. In the process, wind that occurs due to air currents will introduce currents at the surface of the ocean. Wind & Air

Enter your answer in the provided box. To draw a Lewis structure, first add the number of outer (valence) electrons contributed
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

14 is this value for a molecule of CH_3Cl.

Explanation:

Lewis-dot structure : It shows the bonding between the atoms of a molecule and it also shows the unpaired electrons present in the molecule.

In the Lewis-dot structure the valance electrons are shown by 'dot'.

Number of total outer valence electrons is carbon = 4

Number of total outer valence electrons is hydrogen = 1

Number of total outer valence electrons is chlorine = 7

For total number of outer electrons is CH_3Cl

=1\times 4+3\times 1+1\times 7=14

14 is this value for a molecule of CH_3Cl.
