Answer: A. Pollution

Explanation:

Fossil fuels are the fuels which are excavated from undersurface and deep regions of the the earth crust. These are produce by millions of years of decomposition activity of soil microbes on organic matter generated after dead and decaying plants and animals. These fossil fuels are used as a source of energy.

The fossil fuels like coal, petroleum and natural gas produces toxic,harmful and polluting gases like carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, nitrous oxides on combustion and burning. These gases contaminate the air and water hence causes pollution.

Therefore, the main advantage of using fossil fuel is pollution.

Write the balanced molecular and net ionic equations for the reaction between aluminum metal and silver nitrate. identify the ox
asambeis [7]

Well in this case, silver nitrate is reduced:

Ag<span>+  </span><span>+  </span>e<span>−  </span>→ Ag(s) ↓

 

Meanwhile, the aluminum is oxidized forming a positive ion:

Al(s<span>)  →  </span>Al<span>3+  </span><span>+  3</span>e−

 

To get the overall reaction,  we add the half equations so that the electrons are eliminated:

Al(s<span>)  +   3</span>Ag<span>+  </span><span>→  </span>Al<span>3+  </span><span>+  3</span>Ag(s)

 

And similarly:

Al(s<span>)  +  3</span>AgNO3(aq<span>)  →  </span>Al(NO3)3(aq<span>)  +  3</span>Ag(s<span>)</span>
