Answer:
(a). Biological fixation
(b). Fixation by lightning
Explanation:
Gaseous nitrogen in the atmosphere has to be converted or "fixed" into a suitable form before it can be utilised by living organisms.
There two main ways of nitrogen fixation are
(a). Biological fixation: Majority (approximately 90%) of nitrogen fixation is carried out by bacteria. Bacterias such as Cyanobacteria transforms nitrogen into ammonium and ammonia : N2 + 3 H2 → 2 NH3. The produced ammonia can then be taken in directly by plants and /or the conversion products of ammonium and ammonia may further react in the process of nitrification.
(b). Fixation by lightning: Lightning energy causes the combination nitrogen (N2) and water (H2O) forming nitrates (NO3) and ammonia (NH3) . Rain water dissolves the formed nitrates and ammonia and the solution is drained into the ground, where they can be reached by plants plant roots for consumption.
Answer:
The density is 0, 61 g/cm3
Explanation:
We calculate the density:
Density= mass/volume = 3,8 g/6, 28 cm3 = 0, 61 g/cm3
A is the answer because the others don't make sense. B if you put glass over reactants it doesn't change anything in the reaction. C using a solid with a low surface area will actually be doing the opposite, a higher SA will increase the rate of reaction. D decreasing the concentration will decrease the reaction
Answer:
Pb(NO₂)₂(aq) + 2 LiCl(aq) ⇒ PbCl₂(s) + 2 LiNO₂(aq)
Explanation:
Let's consider the reaction between aqueous lead (II) nitrite and aqueous lithium chloride to form solid lead (II) chloride and aqueous lithium nitrite.
Pb(NO₂)₂(aq) + LiCl(aq) ⇒ PbCl₂(s) + LiNO₂(aq)
This is a double displacement reaction. We will start balancing Cl by multiplying LiCl by 2.
Pb(NO₂)₂(aq) + 2 LiCl(aq) ⇒ PbCl₂(s) + LiNO₂(aq)
Now, we have to balance Li by multiplying LiNO₂ by 2.
Pb(NO₂)₂(aq) + 2 LiCl(aq) ⇒ PbCl₂(s) + 2 LiNO₂(aq)
The equation is now balanced.
