Answer:

Option a is the right one

Explanation:

Redox reactions are defined as the reactions where one element is oxidized (so the oxidation state is increased); and another element is reduced (oxidation state decreases). These changes in the oxidations states are defined by a transference of electrons.

When the oxidation state decrease → reduction → the element gains electrons

When the oxidation state increase → oxidation → the element release electrons

In the reaction N2 + 3H2 → 2NH3, what is the mole ratio of hydrogen to nitrogen?
uranmaximum [27]

Answer: The mole ratio of hydrogen to nitrogen is 3 mole: 1 mole, 3:1

Explanation:

•Mole ratios are determined using the coefficients of the substances in the balanced chemical equation. •Each coefficient represents the number of mole of each substance in the chemical reaction.

•The mole ratio can be determined by first writing out a balanced chemical equation for the reaction.

For this reaction the balanced chemical equation is

N2(g) + 3H2(g) ----> 2NH3(g)

1mol:3mol : 2mol

From the equation we can see that 1 mole of N2(g) reacts with 3 moles of H2(g) or 3 moles of H2(g) react with 1 mole of N2(g) to produce 2 moles of NH3(g).

Therefore, the mole ratio of hydrogen to nitrogen is 3 mole: 1 mole, 3:1

The melting of metamorphic or igneous rock forms what substance? How? Why?
Ugo [173]

Answer:

Extreme pressure from burial, increasing temperature at depth, and a lot of time, can alter any rock type to form a metamorphic rock. If the newly formed metamorphic rock continues to heat, it can eventually melt and become molten (magma). When the molten rock cools it forms an igneous rock.
