The first step Niven has to do in his calculation is to Balanced the chemical equation. The answer is letter A. The key in the balancing of chemical reaction is to make sure that you got the exact chemical formula of the substance that is reacting and the yielded product. After getting the formula, identify first the hardest element/atom to be balanced such as Na, Zn, Cl, etc. Then proceed to the easier ones such as O, H. Make sure to not the atoms present in the molecule of the substance.

What forces hold network solids together?
mezya [45]

Answer:

Covalent solids, also called network solids, are solids that are held together by covalent bonds. As such, they need localized electrons (shared between the atoms) and therefore the atoms are arranged in fixed geometries. Distortion far from this geometry can only occur through a breaking of covalent sigma bonds.

The enthalpy of combustion for octane (C8H18(l)), a key component of gasoline, is -5,074 kJ/mol. This value is the Delta. Hrxn f
Inessa [10]

Combustion can be defined as the reaction of a compound with oxygen. The enthalpy of combustion of octane is \Delta H_{\rm rxn} for \rm C_8H_{18}\;+\;25\;O_2\;\rightarrow 8\;CO_2\;+\;9\;H_2O.

<h3>What is the enthalpy of reaction?</h3>

The enthalpy of reaction is the amount of heat energy absorbed or lost by the molecules in the chemical reaction.

The enthalpy of combustion is the amount of heat energy released by the compound in the reaction with oxygen.

The reaction in which heat is liberated with the reaction of a compound with oxygen has an enthalpy of combustion, equivalent to the enthalpy of reaction.

The combustion of octane can be given as:

\rm C_8H_{18}\;+\;25\;O_2\;\rightarrow 8\;CO_2\;+\;9\;H_2O

Thus, the reaction has combustion energy equivalent to the enthalpy of the reaction is \rm C_8H_{18}\;+\;25\;O_2\;\rightarrow 8\;CO_2\;+\;9\;H_2O. Thus, option B is correct.

Why is studying light and electrons important for chemistry and understanding the universe?
Brut [27]

Explanation :

The study of light and electrons are important for chemistry & universe.

   As we know, everything is made up of particles even light & universe also. The particles are made of atoms and that atoms are made up of electrons, protons & neutrons.

   An electron is one of the most important type of subatomic particles. Electrons combine with the proton to form atom. These electrons, protons & neutrons play a vital role in chemistry and universe.

   The importance of an electron is that when two atoms react with each other or approach each other, their outermost shells come into contact first and these outermost shells electrons are involved in the chemical reaction.

    Also important for chemical reactions, creating bonds, for electricity and the understanding of electrons has allowed for the better understanding of some forces which are in our universe such as electromagnetic force.

    We know that the light is act as particle nature and it is a part of universe. As we know that chemists are only responsible for the chemical's study. Chemists cannot study the whole universe that is why they study light and the light is important because nothing would be able to survive.

    The studying of light is important for the photoelectric effect, absorption, bio-molecules synthesis, vitamin D synthesis, vision, colors, drying & evaporation, sterilization, solar energy, spectroscopy, signal system and also for electron excitation.
