Answer:
S(s) + O2(g) --> SO2(g)
Upper S (s) plus upper O subscript 2 (g) right arrow with delta above upper S upper O subscript 2 (g).
Explanation:
The reaction is given as;
Sulfur + oxygen --> Sulphur dioxide
Sulphur = S
Oxygen = O2
Sulfur dioxide = SO2
So we have;
S(s) + O2(g) --> SO2(g)
The crrect option is option A. Upper S (s) plus upper O subscript 2 (g) right arrow with delta above upper S upper O subscript 2 (g).
Answer:
B. Cu + 4HNO3 → Cu(NO3)2 + 2H2O + 2NO2
Explanation:
Hello,
In this case, we should understand oxidizing agents as those substances able to increase the oxidation state of another substance, therefore, in B. reaction we notice that copper oxidation state at the beginning is zero (no bonds are formed) and once it reacts with nitric acid, its oxidation states raises to +2 in copper (II) nitrate, thus, in B. Cu + 4HNO3 → Cu(NO3)2 + 2H2O + 2NO2 nitritc acid is acting as the oxidizing agent.
Moreover, in the other reactions, copper (A.), sodium (C. and D.) remain with the same initial oxidation state, +2 and +1 respectively.
Regards.
Answer:
The outer core of the earth is liquid.
Explanation:
Seismic waves travel through the Earth at different speeds and are reflected and refracted diffracted differently as they encounter layers of different densities.
By analyzing these waves, they have concluded that there is an inner core of solid iron surrounded by a liquid outer core consisting of nickel and iron.
A is wrong. The Earth consists of several layers
C is wrong. Seafloor spreading is caused by the movement of tectonic plates away from each other.
D is wrong. The mantle is mostly solid rock.
Solid, Liquid, Gas, and Plasma
