Answer:

C. Count the atoms in each substance in the reactants and products.

Explanation:

A chemical reaction can be defined as a chemical process which typically involves the transformation or rearrangement of the atomic, ionic or molecular structure of an element through the breakdown and formation of chemical bonds to produce a new compound or substance.

In order for a chemical equation to be balanced, the condition which must be met is that the number of atoms in the reactants equals the number of atoms in the products.

This ultimately implies that, the mass and charge of the chemical equation are both balanced properly.

In Chemistry, all chemical equation must follow or be in accordance with the Law of Conservation of Mass, which states that mass can neither be created nor destroyed by either a physical transformation or a chemical reaction but transformed from one form to another in an isolated (closed) system.

One of the step used for balancing chemical equations is to count the atoms in each substance in the reactants and products.

For example;

NH3 + O2 -----> NO + H2O

The number of atoms in each chemical element are;

For the reactant side:

Nitrogen, N = 1

Hydrogen, H = 3

Oxygen, O = 2

For the product side;

Nitrogen, N = 1

Hydrogen, H = 2

Oxygen, O = 2

When we balance the chemical equation, we would have;

NH3 + 3O2 -----> 4NO + 2H2O

Some scientists speculate that our universe is not the only universe that exists, but the only one we can gather evidence about.

This idea is called the multiverse theory

<h3>What is the Multiverse theory?</h3>

According to multiverse hypothesis, our universe, which spans tens of billions of light-years and contains hundreds of billions of galaxies and almost innumerable stars, may not be the only one. Instead, there may be a whole distinct world, far away from ours, and then another, and another. In fact, there may be an infinite number of universes, each with its own set of physical laws, stars and galaxies (if they can exist in those worlds), and perhaps even sentient civilizations.

The idea of the multiverse appears in a few branches of physics (and philosophy), but inflation theory provides the best-known example. According to inflation theory, a hypothetical occurrence took place when our universe was really young—less than a second old. According to NASA, the cosmos had a brief period of fast expansion before "inflating" to become several orders of magnitude larger than it had been.

According to Heling Deng, a cosmologist at Arizona State University and an authority on the multiverse hypothesis, the expansion of our universe is assumed to have stopped some 14 billion years ago. However, Deng noted in an email to Live Science, "inflation does not disappear everywhere at the same time." It's possible that if inflation slows down in one area, it picks up in another.

Im stuck can someone help me?
mixer [17]
In 2.34 hours, the bus travels 16.34 km.

Average speed = (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance).

Average speed = (16.34 km) / (2.34 hours) = 6.983 km/hr

What force is needed to accelerate a child on a sled (total mass = 65.0 kg ) at 1.25 m/s2?
ratelena [41]
Given; Mass m = 65.0 Kg;   acceleration a = 1.25 m/s²

Required: Force F = ?

Formula: F =ma

               F = (65.0 Kg)(1.25 m/s²)

               F = 81.25 N
