Answer: C. The number of atoms of each element is the same on each side of the equation.

Explanation:

The Law of Conservation of Matter shows that it is not possible for matter to either be created nor for it to be destroyed so the number of atoms of each element on the reactant side of the equation must equal the number of atoms in each element on the product side of the equation.

This is why the following equation is incomplete:

H₂ + O₂ ⇒ H₂O

The oxygen atoms are not the same on either side.

Equation will therefor have to be balanced which will make it:

2H₂ + O₂ ⇒ 2H₂O

Notice now that atoms are the same on both sides.

Putting rock salt on the roads during a snowstorm is an example of: A. Boiling point elevation B. Vapor pressure raising C. Vapo
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

The correct answer is - D. Freezing point depression.

Explanation:

When rock salt is spread over snow-covered icy roads, it generates a liquid layer over it by melting from the surface thereby lowering or depression in the freezing point below the ice.

Therefore, due to this liquid layer comes into the contact with the ice present on the road and causes other ice to melts. This keeps on decreasing the volume of the ice on the road therefore, rock salts spread on the roads during a snowstorm.
