The equation given in question is as follow,
ZnS + NO₃⁻ → Zn²⁺ + S + NO
Oxidation state of elements in reactant side are as follow,
Zn = +2
S = -2
N = +5
O = -2
Oxidation state of elements in product side are as follow,
Zn = +2
S = 0
N = +2
O = -2
So, In this reaction Nitrogen is Reduced while Sulfur is Oxidized.
Now Split the reaction into two half cell reactions,
Reduction Reaction,
ZnS → S + 2e⁻
Oxidation Reaction,
NO₃⁻ + 3e⁻ → NO
As the oxygen atoms are not balance, So, in acidic medium add H⁺ on the side having greater number of Oxygen atom and H₂O on the side having less number of Oxygen atoms,
Hence,
H⁺ + NO₃⁻ + 3e⁻ → NO + H₂O
Now Balance the reaction,
4H⁺ + NO₃⁻ + 3e⁻ → NO + 2H₂O
So, write both half cell equations as,
ZnS → S + 2e⁻ --------- (1)
4H⁺ + NO₃⁻ + 3e⁻ → NO + 2H₂O -------(2)
Multiply eq. 1 with 3 and eq. 2 with 2 to equalize the electron.
So,
3ZnS → 3S + 6e⁻
8H⁺ + 2NO₃⁻ + 6e⁻ → 2NO + 4H₂O
_____________________________________(e⁻ cancelled)
3ZnS + 2NO₃⁻ + 8H⁺ → 3Zn + 3S + 2NO + 4H₂O
A) machinery lubricant.
Explanation:
Judging from the given description about the compound or material, it can best be used as machinery lubricant.
- A lubricant is substance that eases motion between two bodies.
- It makes motion to occur.
- Highly viscous materials are usually desired.
- Viscosity is the resistance to motion in liquids.
- Since the material has a high viscosity at a high temperature and it is unreactive, then it would fit a good lubricant.

Most likely the geometric form of the molecule will be linear.
Explanation:
One possibility is the central atom being an atom with two valance electrons. This will create a liner molecule with no lone pairs of electrons
Another possibility is a central atom being an atom with four valance electrons. If the two atoms each require two bonds like oxygen the result will be a linear molecule with no lone pairs of electrons.
Answer:
6.48 L
Explanation:
From the question,
Applying
PV/T = P'V'/T'......................... Equation 1
P = initial pressure of the helium balloon, V = Initial volume of the balloon, T = Initial temperature of the balloon, P' = Final pressure of the balloon, T' = Final temperature of the balloon, V' = Final volume of the balloon.
make V' the subject of the equation
V' = PVT'/P'T......................... Equation 2
Given: P = 1 atm, V = 4.5 L, T' = 253 K, T= 293 K, P' = 0.6 atm
Substitute these values into equation 2
V' = (4.5×1×253)/(0.6×293)
V' = 1138.5/175.8
V' = 6.48 L
