The element that has been oxidized is Al ( Answer A)

Explanation

if the oxidation number of an element is greater in the product side than the reactant side then the element has lost the electrons . This mean that the element has been oxidized.

Al is oxidized because it move from oxidation state Zero(0) in reactant side to oxidation state 3⁺ in product side.

This implies that Al loses 3 electrons.

The following thermochemical equation is for the reaction of nitrogen(g) with oxygen(g) to form nitrogen dioxide(g). N2(g) + 2O2

Rzqust [24]

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of nitrogen gas reacted to produce given amount of energy is 5.99 grams.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The given chemical reaction follows:

$N_2(g)+2O_2(g)\rightarrow 2NO_2(g);\Delta H=66.4kJ$

We know that:

Molar mass of nitrogen gas = 28 g/mol

We are given:

Enthalpy change of the reaction = 14.2 kJ

To calculate the mass of nitrogen gas reacted, we use unitary method:

When enthalpy change of the reaction is 66.4 kJ, the mass of nitrogen gas reacted is 28 grams.

So, when enthalpy change of the reaction is 14.2 kJ, the mass of nitrogen gas reacted will be = $\frac{28}{66.4}\times 14.2=5.99g$

Hence, the mass of nitrogen gas reacted to produce given amount of energy is 5.99 grams.

Why doesnt iron burst into flames when it rusts

Katarina [22]

Rust does not have the properties to catch onto flames. However, if you light it on fire, then it would probably catch in flames but not instantly and will not continue to burn unless you have soaked it in oil or flammable object or substance. :) Hope this helps!
