Answer:

This will be the balanced half reaction:

NO₂(g)  + H₂O (l) →  NO₃⁻(aq)  + 1 e⁻  + 2H⁺ (aq)

Explanation:

In acidic medium, the redox balance has to be done as this way.

As it is an oxidation, we know that oxidation state has increased.

NO₂(g)   →  NO₃⁻(aq)  + 1 e⁻

Nitrogen in NO₂ acts with +4; in the nitrate, N acts with +5

The nitrogen has released 1 electron.

As we are in acidic medium, we must complete with water, in the same side, as we have less oxygens and in the opposite side, with protons to balance the H. This will be the balanced half reaction:

NO₂(g)  + H₂O (l) →  NO₃⁻(aq)  + 1 e⁻  + 2H⁺ (aq)

Which of the following equations is balanced correctly and has the correct products for the reactants RbNO3 and BeF2?
Pavel [41]

Answer:

2RbNO₃ + BeF₂ → Be(NO₃)₂ + 2RbF, because Be keeps a 2+ charge throughout the reaction

Explanation:

2RbNO₃ + BeF₂ → Be(NO₃)₂ + 2RbF, because Be keeps a 2+ charge throughout the reaction

Rb is a +1 cation, NO3 is a -1 anion, Be is a +2 cation and F is a -1 anion.

In writing an ionic compound the charge of the cation becomes the subscript of the anion and the charge of the anion becomes the subscript of the cation.  

So the ionic compound formed between Be2+ and F- is BeF2. The ionic compound formed between Be2+ and NO3- is Be(NO₃)₂.  

As there are two NO₃ on the product side it is balanced by writing a 2 coefficient before RbNO₃ on the reactant side.  

And as there are two F on the reactant side it is balanced by writing a 2 coefficient before RbF on the product side.

Plz help thank you!!!

Answer:

1. Covalent Bond

2. Ionic Bond

Explanation:

Covalent bonds are defined as the bond in which sharing of electrons takes place between atoms. The sharing of electrons is in equal number so that it form a stable balance of attraction and repulsion between atoms. In the given example of CO2 (first image) oxygen is sharing equal number of electrons with carbon to form a stable bond called covalent bond.

Ionic bonds are formed when valence electrons are transferred to other atoms and form oppositely charged ions. In ionic bond formation, the atoms that gain electrons become negatively charged and the atoms that loses electrons become positively charged. In the given example of Ca Cl2, Ca is also giving its 2 valence electrons to each Cl and there is no stable balance of attraction and repulsion between atoms.

Hence, the correct answer is:

1. Covalent Bond

2. Ionic Bond

How does the presence of a nucleus provide a method of basic cell classification?
Zanzabum

Answer:

Sample Respond: The nucleus maintains the integrity of genes and controls the activities of the cell by regulating gene expression—the nucleus is, therefore, the control center of the cell.
