Mud is a suspension because it is a heterogeneous mixture that has many solid particles that have sedimented in various parts of the mixture, meaning they can be easily seen or removed. A solution is homogeneous like putting sugar in water or similar.

A buildup of charges in an object is called

8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

Static Electricity.

Explanation:

Static electricity is defined as 'an electric charge that has built up on an insulated body, often due to friction.' It is an outcome of the disparity among the positive, as well as, negative charges residing in a body or object and causes the charge to build up on the surface of the body. The accumulation of electric charges on the objects like wool, hair, silk, plastic, etc. causes them to possess static electricity. These charges stay on the surface until it is discharged or released through a source. Thus, 'static electricity' is the correct answer.

Nitrogen dioxide is produced by combustion in an automobile engine. For the following reaction, 0.377 moles of nitrogen monoxide

Contact [7]

Answer:

The amount of NO₂ that can be produced 8.533 g

Explanation:

According to question

2 NO(g) + O₂(g) → 2 NO₂(g)

Given

Moles of nitrogen monoxide = 0.377

Moles of oxygen = 0.278

$'For NO'=\frac{Mole}{Stoichiometry}=\frac{0.377}{2} =0.1855\\'For O_{2} '=\frac{0.278}{1}= 0.278\\$

Since 'NO' is the limiting reagent according to this ratio.

According to equation

2 moles NO reacts to form 2 moles NO₂

So, 0.1855 moles NO give = 0.1855 moles of NO₂

Mass of 1 mole NO₂ = 46 g/mole

Mass of 0.1855 moles = 46 x 0.1855 = 8.533 g
