Know what decomposition is. The compound is "breaking down".
Di means 2 while, Tetra means 4.
First, we will simply follow the instructions and break down the compound as so: The decomposition of dinitrogen tetraoxide into nitrogen gas and oxygen gas
*Take into account that diatomic molecules (HNOFClBRI) will always have a subscript of 2
N₂O₄⇒N₂+O₂
After breaking down the compound, we must now balance the equation.
To balance the equation, we must make sure that each element has the same amount of atoms.
Starting with compound at the left of the yield: N=2 and O=4
But, at the right of the yield: N=2 and O=2
We have now discovered that the oxygen gas is not balanced throughout the equation.
N₂O₄⇒N₂+2O₂
*We simply multiply the oxygen gas on the right of the equation by 2
After multiplying, on the right side of the equation, O=4. We now have a balanced equation because all elements have the same amount of atoms on each side.
So your final answer for this balanced decomposition chemical equation is: N₂O₄⇒N₂+O₂
X rays are the correct answer :)
Answer:
Plucking occurs when rocks and stones become frozen to the base or sides of the glacier and are plucked from the ground or rock face as the glacier moves. HOPE THIS HELPS!~

Answer:
3.2 g O₂
Explanation:
To find the mass of O₂, you need to (1) convert grams H₂O to moles H₂O (via molar mass), then (2) convert moles H₂O to moles O₂ (via mole-to-mole ratio from reaction coefficients), and then (3) convert moles O₂ to grams O₂ (via molar mass). It is important to arrange the ratios/conversions in a way that allows for the cancellation of units (the desired unit should be in the numerator). The final answer should have 2 sig figs to reflect the sig figs of the given value (3.6 g).
Molar Mass (H₂O): 2(1.008 g/mol) + 15.998 g/mol
Molar Mass (H₂O): 18.014 g/mol
2 H₂O -----> 2 H₂ + 1 O₂
Molar Mass (O₂): 2(15.998 g/mol)
Molar Mass (O₂): 31.996 g/mol
3.6 g H₂O 1 mole 1 mole O₂ 31.996 g
---------------- x --------------- x --------------------- x --------------- = 3.2 g O₂
18.014 g 2 moles H₂O 1 mole
