The answer is (A) burning fossils fuels releases excess amounts of CO2 ( Carbon dioxide) which reacts with H2O in the atmosphere.
CO2 + H2O -> H2CO3

H2CO3 is known as carbonic acid.
Carbonic acid contributes to problems such as ocean acidification and can dissolve limestone ( CaCO3) sculptures.
Shown by this reaction H2CO3 + CaCO3 -> Ca(HCO3)2 producing Calcium Hydrogen Carbonate.

There are also different causes of acid rain such as Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) and Nitrogen Oxide (NO) which can cause respiratory problems.

What is the balanced form of the chemical equation shown below?
Tanzania [10]
B. 1, 1, 1, 2
Explanation:
You only need to balance the NaNO3 on the right. Since there is 2 NO3 on the left, you need to put a 2 in front of the NaNO3 on the right. Everything else is already balanced so the only coefficient needed is 2 in front of the NaNO3.

Provide your answer in the following format: [element name], [chemical family]
erastova [34]

Answer: Bismuth (Bi) , Nitrogen family

Explanation:

As the element has 5 valence electrons in the sixth energy level, which mens it belongs to 6th period as the valence electron has entered the 6th energy level.

Now as the electrons are  filled according to afbau's rule , the electronic configuration of the element will be :

[Xe]4f^{14}5d^{10}6s^26p^3

Now as the atomic number of element is equal to the number of electrons in a neutral atom , the atomic number is 83 and the element is Bismuth (Bi). As the last electron enters p -subshell , it is  a p block element. It lies in group 15 which is nitrogen family.
