The reduction of nitrogen monoxide is described by the following chemical equation: 2H2 (g) +2NO (g) 2H20 ()N2 (g Suppose a two-

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

Reasonable Second step- $N_{2}O(g)+H_{2}(g)\rightarrow N_{2}(g)+H_{2}O(g)$

Explanation:

The given single step chemical reaction is as follows.

$2H_{2}(g)+2NO \rightarrow 2H_{2}O(g)+N_{2}(g)$

Suppose a two-step mechanism is proposed for this reaction,

The reaction occured in two steps they are as follows.

$Step -1:H_{2}(g)+2NO \rightarrow N_{2}O(g)+H_{2}O(g)$

$Step-2:N_{2}O(g)+H_{2}(g)\rightarrow N_{2}(g)+H_{2}O(g)$

Which of the following is a correct formula unit? PbCl AlP Li3Al ClO

zavuch27 [327]

Answer: AIP

There are two types of substances mixture and pure substance. Mixture has NO chemical formula and a pure substance has a chemical formula. There are two types of pure substances, elements (mono atomic and molecular) and compounds ( covalent and ionic).

Ionic compounds do not exist in independent molecular form. They form three dimensional crystal lattice, in which each ion is surrounded by oppositely charged ion. so the ratio of ion is called the formula unit
