Answer:

<em>Liquids and gases are called fluids because they can be made to flow, or move.</em>

<em> In any fluid, the molecules themselves are in constant, random motion, colliding with each other and with the walls of any container.</em><em> </em><em>So</em><em> </em><em>that</em><em> </em><em>they're</em><em> </em><em>called</em><em> </em><em>fluids</em><em>.</em>

Fluids are liquid and gases. They take the shape of their containers. They are called fluids because of their ability to flow.

Enter a balanced equation for the reaction between solid silicon dioxide and solid carbon that produces solid silicon carbide an
givi [52]

Answer:

SiO2(s) + 3C(s)  ------> SiC(s) + 2CO(g)

Explanation:

The formula for silicon oxide is SiO2 and carbon is C. silicon carbide is SiC

and carbon monoxide is CO.

An arrow is always used to separate the reactants (left) and products (right).

A balanced equation must contain equal number of atoms in each side of the equation.

For example in the equation above, there are 1 atom of silicon appears on each side; 2 atoms of oxygen and three atoms of carbon.

The equations given in the problem introduction can be added together to give the following reaction: overall: N2O4→2NO2 However
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

Reverse the 2 NO_2 \longrightarrow 2 NO + O_2  reaction

Explanation:

Reactions:

2 NO_2 \longrightarrow 2 NO + O_2

N_2O_4 \longrightarrow 2 NO + O_2

Overall:

N_2O_4 \longrightarrow 2 NO_2

As can be seen, in the overall reaction we have N_2O_4 in the reactants like in the second reaction and NO_2 in the products. The NO_2 is in the first reaction but as a reactant so we need to reverse that reaction:

2 NO + O_2 \longrightarrow 2 NO_2

N_2O_4 \longrightarrow 2 NO + O_2

Combining:

N_2O_4 + 2 NO + O_2\longrightarrow 2 NO + O_2 + 2 NO_2

N_2O_4 \longrightarrow 2 NO_2
