Almost always oxidation,
the speed of the reaction is the big difference between fire and explosions
<span>(and slower yet - the "respiration" reactions that keep you alive).</span>

PLEASE HELP!!! URGENT!!! WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

A silicone atom shares an electron pair with each oxygen atom

Explanation:

Because the silicone dioxide molecule has one silicone atom:two oxygen atoms....

Hence...since silicone has four electrons in the outter shell..which are used for bonding...each oxygen atom shares two electrons(an electron pair) with the silicone atom...so as to fill the outter shell of the oxygen atom

The use of fertilizers in agriculture has significantly altered several nutrient cycles including:
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

potassium, nitrogen and phosphorous cycle

Explanation:

A fertilizer is a substance which is applied on the plants by farmers to increase the supply of nutrients for the plants. Fertilizers have known to be toxic in many ways such as they alter the potassium, nitrogen and phosphorus cycles. Nitrogen, potassium and phosphorus are present in abundant amounts in the fertilizers. Draining of these fertilizers into rivers and ponds is toxic for the aquatic life. Hence, the use of fertilizers disrupts the natural cycles and is toxic for many aquatic plants and animals.

Find the number of moles of water that can be formed if you have 126 mol of hydrogen gas and 58 mol of oxygen gas.
Elden [556K]

Since a water molecule is H2O, you would divide 126 hydrogen molecules by 2, and you would get 63. That means you have 63 double hydrogen molecules, and 58 oxygen molecules to pair up with them. So that means you could have 58 molecules of water, with 5 double hydrogen molecules, so basically 10 extra molecules of hydrogen along with the H2O molecules. Hope I helped! :)

SO42- + 2Cr(OH)3 + 4OH- → + 2CrO42- + 3SO32- + 5H2O
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

Reduced species and oxidizing agent: sulfur in the form of sulfate.

Oxidized species and reducing agent: chromium in the form of chromous hydroxide.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, for the reaction:

SO_4^{2-} + 2Cr(OH)_3 + 4OH^- \rightarrow  2CrO_4^{2-} + 3SO_3^{2-} + 5H_2O

We can see that the oxidation states of sulfur and chromium change from +6 to +4 and +3 to +6 respectively; in such a way, since the oxidized species is the same reducing agent because it undergoes an increase in the oxidation state, we infer that chromium is it as it goes from +3 to +6.

Moreover, since the reduced species is the same oxidizing agent because it undergoes a decrease in the oxidation state, we infer that sulfur is it as it goes from +6 to +4.

Best regards!
