Answer:

D) There must be equal number of atoms of each elements on both sides of equation.

Explanation:

The balancing equation must have equal number of atoms of each elements on both sides of equation.

The balance equation shoes mass is conserved thus followed the law of conservation of mas.

Law of conservation of mass:

According to the law of conservation mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.

Explanation:

This law was given by french chemist Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

For example:

In given photosynthesis reaction:

6CO₂ + 6H₂O + energy → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

there are six carbon atoms, eighteen oxygen atoms and twelve hydrogen atoms on the both side of equation so this reaction followed the law of conservation of mass.

Consider the following reaction: NO( g) + SO 3( g) ⇌ NO 2( g) + SO 2( g) A reaction mixture initially contains 0.86 atm NO and 0

DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

The equilibrium pressure of NO2 is 0.084 atm

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

A reaction mixture initially contains 0.86 atm NO and 0.86 atm SO3.

Kp = 0.0118

Step 2: The balanced equation

NO( g) + SO3( g) ⇌ NO2( g) + SO2( g)

Step 3: The initial pressures

p(NO) = 0.86 atm

p(SO3) = 0.86 atm

p(NO2) = 0 atm

p(SO2) = 0 atm

Step 4: The pressure at the equilibrium

For 1 mol NO we need 1 mol SO3 to produce 1 mol NO2 and 1 mol SO2

p(NO) = 0.86 -x atm

p(SO3) = 0.86 -xatm

p(NO2) = x atm

p(SO2) = x atm

Step 5: Define Kp

Kp = ((pNO2)*(pSO2)) / ((pNO)*(pSO3))

Kp = 0.0118 = x²/(0.86 - x)²

X = 0.08427

p(NO) = 0.86 -0.08427 = 0.77573 atm

p(SO3) = 0.86 -0.08427 = 0.77573 atm

p(NO2) = 0.08427 atm

p(SO2) = 0.08427 atm

The equilibrium pressure of NO2 is 0.08427 atm ≈ 0.084 atm

If a gold bar is 16,000 g mass and 800 cm^3 volume what is the density?

ki77a [65]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 20 g/cm³</h3>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

$density = \frac{mass}{volume} \\$

From the question

mass = 16,000 g

volume = 800 cm³

We have

$density = \frac{16000}{800} = \frac{160}{8} \\$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

Explain the role of a primary consumer and a secondary consumer in a food web.

Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Secondary consumers are organisms that eat primary consumers for energy. Primary consumers are always herbivores, or organisms that only eat autotrophic plants.

Carnivores only eat other animals, and omnivores eat both plant and animal matter.
