There is a missing portion of this question which shows the reaction that needs balancing:
"In a balanced equation, the same number of each kind of atom is shown on each side of the equation. Calculate the number of iron (Fe), oxygen (O), and carbon atoms (C).
Fe2O3+ 3CO --> 2Fe + 3CO<span>2
</span><span>Based on these values, is the equation balanced?</span><span>"
</span>
To check if this equation is balanced we simply compare the number of each element on each side of the equation.
On the reactant side of the equation we have:
2 Fe atoms
6 O atoms
3 C atoms
On the product side of the equation we have:
2 Fe atoms
6 O atoms
3 C atoms
Therefore, both side of the reaction have the correct and equal number of each atom, so the equation is balanced.
Hope you could understand.
If you have any query, feel free to ask.
Explanation:
Ok so water is H2O and cabon dioxide in the air is CO2, so the water goes through the carbon dioxide and makes acid rain H2SO4.
Now we have our limestone which is CaCO3.
What happens is that the acid breaks apart our limestone into Ca2+ and CO3 2-. This then reforms into Calcium bicarbonate Ca(CO3)2.
Calcium bicarbonate is soluble in water and is hence washed away by the rain eroding the limestone.
The correct answer is A. Mitochondria is the one that is responsible for everything that has to do with energy.
