Bikes that are kept outside are not used as often, speeding up the chemical reaction of metal rusting.
Heat energy from the sun slows down the chemical reaction of the metal rusting.
Moisture and oxygen cause oxidation, which speeds up the chemical reaction of the metal rusting.
Wind energy outside speeds up the chemical reaction of the metal rusting.
Answer: Question 3
Group 14, Period 3 is a metalloid
Explanation: Question 3
The element in group 14, period 3 on the periodic table is Si. Metalloids are elements which share both non-metallic and metallic characteristics.
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
</span>
Answer: The size, mass, and arrangement of atoms affect the density of a substance. How might these factors work together to cause a substance to have a high density? A substance with smaller more massive atoms that are close together is going to have a higher density.
