2[H⁺] + [O²⁻] → H₂O

Explanation:

Half reactions are usually composed of components of oxidation-reduction (redox) reaction where one element is losing electrons while another is gaining so they can come together into a compound. The half-reaction shows part of a reaction where the combining elements are charged and the product, from the redox, is neutral.

In this case, the H⁺ is carrying the positive charge because it is donating an electron to O²⁻, which is the reason the O²⁻ is carrying the negative charge. Note that we need 2 H⁺ for every one O²⁻. The O is being reduced while the H is being oxidized.

Answer and Explanation:

D) 7 is the answer

Together, the crust and the upper part of the mantle form the lithosphere, Earth's solid outer shell. This rocky, brittle layer is broken up into seven major and several minor tectonic plates (also known as lithospheric plates) that fit together like puzzle pieces.

Water vapor is not usually seen.

xeze [42]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Water vapor is totally invisible.

Without it, there would be no clouds or rain or snow, since all of these require water vapor in order to form. All of the water vapor that evaporates from the surface of the Earth eventually returns as precipitation - rain or snow.

Determine the percentage composition of Ptl2

Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Percent Composition

1. Find the molar mass of all the elements in the compound in grams per mole.

2. Find the molecular mass of the entire compound.

3. Divide the component's molar mass by the entire molecular mass.

4. You will now have a number between 0 and 1. Multiply it by 100% to get percent composition.

The sulfur atom of sulfur dioxide is considered to be sp2-hybridized. The expected bond angle is 120°, but is actually slightly

Alja [10]

Answer: The bonds are intermediate between double and single bonds

Explanation:

A closer look at the diagram below shows that the bonds in sulphur IV oxide are intermediate between double and single bonds. Hence they do not have the exact bond angle of single bonds. This is why the bond angle is not exactly 120°. There are two resonance structures in the diagram that clearly show this point.
