true

downstream to the riverbed. However, the most common mechanism to produce older rocks on top of younger is by thrust faulting. Thrust faults form where rocks are being compressed, usually by plate tectonic mechanisms. Thrust faults rip up older strata and pile it on top of younger rocks.

Why do chemical equations need to be balanced?

velikii [3]

Because if they are not balanced, then the amount of reaction is not equal to the amount of the product. You must have the same ratio of atoms on both sides of the equation because we are not losing moles of each element.

Which one of the following is not a valid expression for the rate of the reaction below? 4NH3 + 7O2 → 4NO2 + 6H2O Which one of t

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer : All of the above are valid expressions of the reaction rate.

Explanation :

The given rate of reaction is,

$4NH_3+7O_2\rightarrow 4NO_2+6H_2O$

The expression for rate of reaction for the reactant :

$\text{Rate of disappearance of }NH_3=-\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{d[NH_3]}{dt}$

$\text{Rate of disappearance of }O_2=-\frac{1}{7}\times \frac{d[O_2]}{dt}$

The expression for rate of reaction for the product :

$\text{Rate of formation of }NO_2=+\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{d[NO_2]}{dt}$

$\text{Rate of formation of }H_2O=+\frac{1}{6}\times \frac{d[H_2O]}{dt}$

From this we conclude that, all the options are correct.
