6 0

Answer:

a = 4

b = 3

Explanation:

<u>SOLUTION :-</u>

Balance it by using 'hit & trial' method , and you'll get the answer :-

2Fe₂O + 3C → <u>4</u>Fe + <u>3</u>CO₂

⇒ a = 4 ; b = 3

<u></u>

<u>VERIFICATION :-</u>

<em>In reactant side of equation :-</em>

  • Number of atoms in Fe = 2×2 = 4
  • Number of atoms in O = 2×3 = 6
  • Number of atoms in C = 3×1 = 3

<em>In product side of equation :-</em>

  • Number of atoms in Fe = 4×1 = 4
  • Number of atoms in C = 3×1 = 3
  • Number of atoms in O = 3×2 = 6

Number of atoms of each element is equal in both reactant & product side of equation. Hence , the equation is balanced.

The reason why modelling is used in the study of earth science processes is further explained below

<h3>What is earth science?</h3>

Earth science is defined as the branch of science that deals with the geology, oceanology and meteorology aspects of life.

Because these fields covered by earth sciences is are often not visible, models are used for its study for better understanding.

What properties characterize ionic compounds
nevsk [136]
<span>The atoms in a compound are held together by a chemical bond. The chemical bonds can be either covalent bonds or ionic bonds. Both the bonds are considered very strong bonds. These bonds are mainly formed by sharing of electrons or in the case when one of the elements making the compound donates electron to the other element. The nucleus of each atom attracts to form a strong bond. This property of attraction between the nucleus of the atoms actually helps in forming the chemical bonds. </span>
