Atmospheric nitrogen has to be combined with other elements, or fixed, in order to be used by plants. Lightning is one way that

nitrogen is fixed. When lightning occurs, the extreme heat breaks the bonds in nitrogen molecules, allowing nitrogen to combine with oxygen and form nitrogen oxides. In what way is most of the nitrogen fixed by lightning made available for use by plants?

Answer: rain

Explanation:

The nitrogen is present in the earth atmosphere around 78%. The lightening split the molecules of nitrogen into nitrogen atoms which combines with the oxygen in air. The nitrogen dioxide get mixed with water of rain and nitrates are formed. The nitrates are added to the soil by rain. These nitrates are absorbed by the plants. This helps plants in fixing nitrogen.

Why is the sunset red or orange?
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

According to the science magazine Scientific American, the sunset is reddish because, when the sun is setting, the light that reaches you has had to go through lots more atmosphere than when the sun is overhead, hence the only colour light that is not scattered away is the long wavelength light, the red.

When methane (CH4) combines with oxygen (O2), carbon
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

C. CH4 + 202 – CO2 + 2H20

Explanation:

CH4+O2-CO2+H20

The above equation represents combustion of methane to produce carbon-dioxide and water.

One carbon atom is present on the reactant side as well as on the product side. Four hydrogen atoms are present on the reactant side  and two hydrogen atoms on product side. In order to balance this equation, we would multiply water molecule by two. Now there are four atoms of oxygen in the product side but only two on reactant side, so we will multiply oxygen molecule by two on the reactant side. Now the equation is balanced.

The balanced chemical equation is:

CH4+202-CO2+2H2O

This equation obeys the law of conservation of mass as the mass of the reactants is same as that of the products.
