Answer:

Soil is a mixture of organic matter, minerals, gases, liquids, and organisms that together support life.

We get these from the plants that grow, and the animals that we eat that eat the plants. Most soils have a large supply of nutrients in them, and they get taken up by plants when plants absorb water. Soils need to be healthy to grow large quantities of plants, and animals need plants to grow strong.

select the equations that are correctly balanced. h2o 2o2? h2o2 fe2o3 3h2? 2fe 3h2o al 3br2? albr3 caco3? cao co2 can you clarif

natta225 [31]

The choices are as follows:
h2o + 2o2 = h2o2
fe2o3 + 3h2 = 2fe + 3h2o
al + 3br2 = albr3
caco3 = cao + co2

The correct answers would be the second and the last option. The equations that are correctly balanced are:

 fe2o3 + 3h2 = 2fe + 3h2o
caco3 = cao + co2

To balance, it should be that the number of atoms of each element in the reactant and the product side is equal.
