The answer is B. the occurrence of huge events in Earth's natural history

The geologic time scale is a system of chronological dating that relates geological strata to time. It is used by geologists, paleontologists, and other Earth scientists to describe the timing and relationships of events that have occurred during Earth's history.

During combustion, methane yields carbon dioxide and water. The unbalanced equation for this reaction is:CH4(g)+O2(g) → CO2(g)+

almond37 [142]

Answer:

CH₄(g) + 2O₂(g) → CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(l)

Mole ratios for the balanced equation be:

1:2, 2:1, 1:1, 1:2, 2:2

Explanation:

CH4(g)+O2(g) → CO2(g)+ H2O(l)

To balance a chemical equation, you must have the same mole of each element in both sides of the reaction (reactant side and product side)

CH₄(g) + 2O₂(g) → CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(l)

2 C

8 H

8 O

In both side.

It takes 1 mole of methane to react with 2 mole of oxygen in order to produce 1 mol of dioxide and 2 mole of water.

Mole ratios for the balanced equation be:

1:2, 2:1, 1:1, 1:2, 2:2 - We should compare each compound

1 mol methane → 2 mole of oxygen

2 mole of oxygen → 1 mol of methane

2 mole of oxygen → 1 mol of dioxide

1 mole of dioxide → 1 mol of Methane

2 mole of water → 2 mole of oxygen (the same as opposite)

1 mol methane → 2 mole of water

2 mol of water → 1 mol of methane

A. 6.07 x 10-15 How many significant figures are there in this equation

Harman [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

In scientific notation, the number of integers in the first part will always be the amount of significant figures.

For example,

1) 1.542505 x 10^17 =7 significant figures

1) 1.54 x 10^17 =3 significant figures

Rate law equation The rate of a chemical reaction depends on the concentrations of the reactants. For the general reaction betwe

jekas [21]

Answer: The reaction order with respect to A is 'm'

Explanation:

Order of the reaction is the sum of the concentration of terms on which the rate of the reaction actually depends. It is equal to the sum of the exponents of the molar concentration in the rate law expression.

Elementary reactions the reactions for which the order of the reaction is same as its molecularity and order with respect to each reactant is equal to its stoichiometric coefficient as represented in the balanced chemical equation.

The given chemical equation follows:

$aA+bB\rightleftharpoons cC+dD$

The rate of the above reaction is given to us as:

$Rate=k[A]^m[B]^n$

In the above rate law expression, the order with respect to the reactants is not equal to the stoichiometric coefficients. Thus, it is not an elementary reaction.

Order with respect to reactant A = m

Order with respect to reactant B = n

Hence, the reaction order with respect to A is 'm'
