The balanced equation :
2NaHCO₃⇒CO₂ + Na₂CO₃+H₂O
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
Reaction
NaHCO(s) --> _CO2+_NaCO(s)+_H2O
Required
The balanced equation
Solution
Maybe the equation should be like this :
NaHCO₃⇒CO₂ + Na₂CO₃+H₂O
Give a coefficient
NaHCO₃⇒aCO₂ + bNa₂CO₃+cH₂O
Make an equation
Na, left=1, right=2b⇒2b=1⇒b=1/2
H, left=1, right=2c⇒2c=1⇒c=1/2
C, left=1, right=a+b⇒a+b=1⇒a+1/2=1⇒a=1/2
The equation becomes :
NaHCO₃⇒1/2CO₂ +1/2Na₂CO₃+1/2H₂O x2
2NaHCO₃⇒CO₂ + Na₂CO₃+H₂O
Polar bonds are formed between atoms of different electronegativities.
Food web should be the correct answer

Answer: Oxidation is defined as the reaction in which there is loss of electrons. It is accompanied by increase in oxidation number.

Zinc in solid state has oxidation number of zero and on losing electrons changes to
with oxidation number of +2.
Reduction is defined as the reaction in which there is gain of electrons. It is accompanied by decrease in oxidation number.

Hydrogen ions with +1 oxidation state gains electrons and converts to molecular hydrogen with oxidation state of zero.
In the given redox reaction, both oxidation and reduction takes place. They go hand in hand.

Zinc converts to
and gets oxidized.
gains electron and convert to
.
