Answer:  The balanced equation for the given reaction is

2SO_{2}(g) + O_{2}(g) \rightarrow 2SO_{3}(g).

Explanation:

A chemical equation which contains same number of atoms on both reactant and product side.

For example, SO_{2}(g) + O_{2}(g) \rightarrow SO_{3}(g)

Here, number of atoms on reactant side are as follows.

  • S = 1
  • O = 4

Number of atoms on product side are as follows.

  • S = 1
  • O = 3

To balance this equation, multiply SO_{2} by 2 on reactant side and multiply SO_{3} by 2. Hence, the equation will be re-written as follows.

2SO_{2}(g) + O_{2}(g) \rightarrow 2SO_{3}(g)

Here, number of atoms on reactant side are as follows.

  • S = 2
  • O = 6

Number of atoms on product side are as follows.

  • S = 2
  • O = 6

Now, there are same number of atoms on both reactant and product side. So, this equation is balanced.

Thus, we can conclude that the balanced equation for the given reaction is 2SO_{2}(g) + O_{2}(g) \rightarrow 2SO_{3}(g).

Gases and particles which are put into the air or emitted by various sources are called __________. photochemical smog emissions
Leto [7]
I would say the answer is emissions. These are the particles that are not supposed to be present in air but due to the production of different substances from humans daily activities these substances go with the air we breath. Hope this helped.

Calculate the theoretical yield of glycolysis and complete glucose breakdown
rusak2 [61]
Eukaryotic cells, the theoretical maximum yield of ATP generated per glucose is 36 to 38, depending on how the 2 NADH generated in the cytoplasm during glycolysis enter the mitochondria and whether the resulting yield is 2 or 3 ATP per NADH

Which pair shares the same empirical formula?
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:- 3. CH_3 and C_2H_6

Explanations:- An empirical formula is the simplest whole number ratio of atoms of each element present in the molecule/compound.

For example, the molecular formula of benzene is C_6H_6 . The ratio of C to H in it is 6:6 that could be simplified to 1:1. So, an empirical formula of benzene is CH.

In the first pair, the ratio of C to H in first molecule is 2:4 that could be simplified to 1:2 and  the empirical formula is CH_2 . In second molecule the ratio of C to H is 6:6 and it could be simplified to 1:1. and the empirical formula is CH. Empirical formulas are different for both the molecules of first pair and so it is not the right choice.

In second pair, C to H ratio in first molecule is 1:2, so the empirical formula is CH_2 . The C to H ratio for second molecule is 1:4, so the empirical formula is CH_4 . Here also, the empirical formulas are not same and hence it is also not the right choice.

In third pair, C to H ratio in first molecule is 1:3, so the empirical formula is CH_3 . In second molecule the C to H ratio is 2:6 and it is simplified to 1:3. So, the empirical formula for this one is also CH_3 . Hence. this is the correct choice.

In fourth pair, first molecule empirical formula is CH. Second molecule has 2:4 that is 1:2 mole ratio of C to H and so its empirical formula is CH_2 . As the empirical formulas are different, it is not the right choice.

So, the only and only correct pair is the third one. 3. CH_3 and C_2H_6
