Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

An ionic bond is defined as the bond which occurs when there will be transfer of electrons between the combining atoms.

For example, potassium donating an electrons to chlorine atom will result in the formation of an ionic bond.

So, the analogy presented by student C, shows that greedy dog stole away the bone from a smaller dog. This is similar to an atom whose one valence electron is readily taken away by an electron deficient atom.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options, student C: A big, greedy dog stealing away a bone from a smaller dog, presented a correct analogy.

A. $2Fe_2O_3(s) +3C(s)$ → $4Fe(s) + 3CO_2(g)$

B. $2Al(s) + 3FeO(s)$ → $Fe(s) + 3Al_2O_3(s)$

C. $2Al(s) +3H_2SO_4(aq)$ → $Al_2(SO_4)_3(aq) + 3H_2(g)$

What is a balanced chemical equation?

An equation that has an equal number of atoms of each element on both sides of the equation is called a balanced chemical equation.

A. $2Fe_2O_3(s) +3C(s)$ → $4Fe(s) + 3CO_2(g)$

B. $2Al(s) + 3FeO(s)$ → $Fe(s) + 3Al_2O_3(s)$

C. $2Al(s) +3H_2SO_4(aq)$ → $Al_2(SO_4)_3(aq) + 3H_2(g)$

In a lab experiment 80.0 g of ammonia [NH3] and 120 g of oxygen are placed in a reaction vessel. At the end of the reaction 72.2

valentinak56 [21]

The percent yield of the reaction : 89.14%

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Reaction of Ammonia and Oxygen in a lab :

mass NH₃ = 80 g

mol NH₃ (MW=17 g/mol):

$\dfrac{80}{17}=4.706$

mass O₂ = 120 g

mol O₂(MW=32 g/mol) :

$\tt \dfrac{120}{32}=3.75$

Mol ratio of reactants(to find limiting reatants) :

$\tt \dfrac{4.706}{4}\div \dfrac{3.75}{5}=1.1765\div 0.75\rightarrow O_2~limiting~reactant(smaller~ratio)$

mol of H₂O based on O₂ as limiting reactants :

mol H₂O :

$\tt \dfrac{6}{5}\times 3.75=4.5$

mass H₂O :

4.5 x 18 g/mol = 81 g

The percent yield :

$\tt \%yield=\dfrac{actual}{theoretical}\times 100\%\\\\\%yield=\dfrac{72.2}{81}\times 100\%=89.14\%$

Based on the wildfires that are occurring along the west coast in Washington,

aniked [119]

Answer:

Yes, wind and temperature are responsible for the spreading of fire.

Explanation:

Chemistry play a key role in the chemical reaction that is occurring in the wildfires because chemistry is the study of chemicals and in wildfires, the reaction of chemicals is responsible for the occurring and spreading of fire. Yes, wind currents and temperature has a great influence on the fire spreading in the forests. The fire occurs in the forest is due to temperature while its spreading happens due to wind. Placing water on the fire does not help extinguish the fire because the the fire particles can be transmitted for a fair distance by wind.
