Answer:

This reaction has infinite ways to be balanced

Explanation:

To balance this equation we can use the algebraic method:

N2O4(g) + CO → NO(g) + CO2(g)+NO2(g)

Where we write each molecule as a letter:

A + B → C + D + E

Then, we write the equations according the number of atoms of each molecule. That is:

Oxygen → 4A + B = C + 2D + 2E <em>(1)</em>

Nitrogen → 2A = C + E <em>(2)</em>

Carbon → B = D <em>(3)</em>

Then, we have to give 1 arbitral number for a letter. For example:

B = 1; D = 1

<em>(1) </em>4A + 1 = C + 2 + 2E

4A = C + 2E + 1

2A = C + E <em>(2) </em>Twice <em>(2):</em>

4A = 2C + 2E

Subtracting <em>(1) </em>in <em>(2)</em>

C + 2E + 1 = 2C + 2E

C + 1 = 2C

1 = C

Si 1 = C:

4A + 1 = 1 + 2 + 2E

4A = 2 + 2E <em>(1)</em>

y:

2A = 1 + E <em>(2)</em>

Twice:

4A = 2 + 2E

As <em>(1) </em>and <em>(2) </em>are the same equation:

<h3>This reaction has infinite ways to be balanced</h3><h3 />

For example:

N2O4(g) + CO → NO(g) + CO2(g)+NO2(g)

Which characteristic do valence electrons indicate about reactions between atoms?
Setler [38]

Bond number

The characteristic of reactions that depends on valence electrons is the bond type.

In chemistry, a chemical bond could be;

Ionic

Covalent

The type of bond formed depends on the number of valence electrons present. When there are few valence electrons on an atom, it mostly forms ionic bonds.

When there are more electrons on an atoms, it mostly forms covalent bonds and the electrons between the atoms are shared.

Explain how chemists overcome the problem of low yield In industry
mrs_skeptik [129]

High temperature and pressure produce the highest rate of reaction. However, this must be balanced with the high cost of the energy needed to maintain these conditions. Catalysts increase the rate of reaction without affecting the yield. This can help create processes which work well even at lower temperatures.

I hope this helps you.

Lithium arsenate (Li3AsO4) and iron nitrate (Fe(NO3)3) are dissolved in water. What precipitate would you expect to form? what i
Alla [95]

Answer:

  • CO₃²⁻ +  H₂O <---------------->  HCO₃⁻ + OH⁻
  • The chemical formula of the precipitate is Fe(OH)₃

Explanation:

  • Fe(NO₃)₃ and K₂CO₃ are strong electrolytes and completely dissociate in water. Carbonate ions is a weak base and combine with water to form hydroxide ions (OH⁻), CO₃²⁻ +  H₂O <---------------->  HCO₃⁻ + OH⁻
  • Ferric, Fe (III), combines with these hydroxide ions to form insoluble precipitates. Fe(OH)₃ is only partially soluble i.e., it does not completely dissociate in water. When the solutions of Fe(NO₃)₃ and K₂CO₃ are mixed, Fe(OH)₃ precipitates out due to the strong electrostatic attraction between Fe (III) and hydroxide ions.
