What is the coefficient of h2 when you balance the equation for this redox reaction? no2(g) + h2(g) → nh3(g) + h2o(l)?

To balance any redox equation, first divide the reaction into two half reactions, and balance the atom whose oxidation number is changing: 

<span>NO2 --> NH3 </span>
<span>H2 --> H2O </span>

<span>Next, balance oxygens by adding H2O where needed, and then balance hydrogen by adding H+: </span>

<span>NO2 --> NH3 + 2 H2O </span>
<span>H2O + H2 --> H2O </span>


<span>7 H+ + NO2 --> NH3 + 2 H2O </span>
<span>H2O + H2 --> H2O + 2 H+ </span>

<span>Next, balance charges by adding electrons (e-): </span>

<span>7 H+ + NO2 + 7 e- --> NH3 + 2 H2O </span>
<span>H2O + H2 --> H2O + 2 H+ + 2 e- </span>

<span>Now, multiply one or both equations by small numbers to make the number of electrons the same in the two half reactions. In this case, multiply the top equation by 2 and the bottom one by 7 to give you 14 electrons in each half reaction: </span>

<span>14 H+ + 2 NO2 + 14 e- --> 2 NH3 + 4 H2O </span>
<span>7 H2O + 7 H2 --> 7 H2O + 14 H+ + 14 e- </span>

<span>Finally, add the two half reactions and simplify by cancelling anything that is on both sides. This will give you the final balanced reaction: </span>

<span>2 NO2 + 7 H2 --> 2 NH3 + 4 H2O </span>

<span>So, the answer to the original question is (A) 7

a block of iron has the dimensions of 3.00 cm x 3.00 cm x 3.00 cm. it has a mass of 213 g. what is its density? a. 638 g/cm3 b.
Juliette [100K]
Volume = 3 cm × 3cm × 3cm
             =  27 cm ³

Mass  =  213 g

Density  =  \frac{MASS}{VOLUME}
 
              = <span>\frac{213 g}{27 cm ^{3} }
</span> 
<span>              =  7.89 g / cm³

Thus answer is D.</span>

BRAINLIESTTT ASAP! PLEASE HELP ME :)
gogolik [260]

Answer:

"Heat of combustion"

Explanation:

A physical property is characteristic of a substance that can be observed or measured without changing its chemical composition, such as color, molecular weight, and volume. A chemical property can only be observed or measured by changing the chemical composition of the substance, such as reactivity, flammability and oxidation states.

Hope this helps! :)

Why did the laser beam move when the magnet was placed near it
podryga [215]
No because the light can only produce the color the manufacturer gave it and it is thin air unless the laser beam was able to make things on fire then the substance would be called a gas
