Answer:

Burning of fossil fuels releases a lot of pollutants such as sulphur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide into the atmosphere, and reacts with the water in the atmosphere to form sulphuric acid or nitric acid. Hence, acid rain is formed as that acid comes down from the atmosphere along with the rain.

Which of the following requires an oxidizing agent?
laila [671]
Correct Answer: First Option

An oxidizing agent causes the oxidation of the other atom/element by itself being reduced. In simple words we can state that oxidizing agent gains electrons from the other atom/element i.e. the other atom loses electrons.

From the given options we have to find in which of them electrons are being removed. When the electrons are removed, the number of protons in the atom will be more than the number of electrons. As a result the net charge on the atom will be positive. 

First option lists such a change. Initially charge on Al is neutral, 3 electrons are removed and it get +3 charge. This shows that Al is being oxidized, so it needs an oxidizing agent.

Consider the following reaction at equilibrium: 2CO2 (g) ↔ 2CO (g) + O2 (g) ∆H° = -514 kJ Le Châtelier's principle predicts that
Elza [17]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

increase the partial pressure of CO2

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

2CO(g) + O2(g) -------> 2CO2(g) + heat

  • Removel of Oxygen makes the equilibrium to move towards the left side (reactants) because the reactants concentration is decreasing. According to the LeChâtelier’s principle equilibrium moves towards the lower concentration.
  • When the partial pressure of any of the gaseous reactants or of the products is increased, the position of equilibrium is shifted so as to decrease its partial pressure. In this case, the removal of oxygen causes a shift to to the left which causes an increase in the partial pressure of CO2.
