Answer:

c. 3

Explanation:

Fe₂O₃ + H₂ ---> Fe + H₂O

1) I'd start with balancing the oxygen on both sides as there are three on the left and one on the right. Add 3 in front of H₂O to solve this. Now we have

Fe₂O₃ + H₂ ---> Fe + 3H₂O

Fe₂O₃ + H₂ ---> Fe + 3H₂O

2) Fe is not balanced as there are two Fe on the left and one Fe on the right. Add 2 in front of Fe to give

Fe₂O₃ + H₂ ---> 2Fe + 3H₂O

3) Fe₂O₃ + H₂ ---> 2Fe + 3H₂O

H is not balanced as there are two H on the left and 6 H on the right (3 × 2 = 6) so add 3 in H₂ to be equal

Fe₂O₃ + 3H₂ ---> 2Fe + 3H₂O

the equation is fully balanced

A small hole in the wing of a space shuttle requires a 20.7-cm² patch.
cricket20 [7]

The Patch's area of the space shuttle in km² is 2.07 × 10⁻⁹ km²

Given, that a space shuttle requires a 20.7 cm² patch

We have to convert the patch's area from cm² into km².

Unit conversion is a method in which we multiply or divide with a particular numerical factor and then finally round off to the nearest significant digits.

Patch area of the space shuttle is 20.7 cm²

1 cm = 0.00001 km

or, 1 cm² = (0.00001 km)²

or,  1 cm² = 10⁻¹⁰km²

20.7 cm² = 20.7 ×  10⁻¹⁰km²

20.7 cm² = 2.07 × 10⁻⁹ km²

The patch area in square kilometers is 2.07 × 10⁻⁹ km²

Burning gas on a stovetop transforms chemical energy into what other types of energy?
svp [43]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Burning gas on a stove top transforms chemical energy into thermal energy.</em>  

<u>Explanation:</u>

Cooking food involves in two types of energies. <em>They are chemical energy and thermal energy. </em>

We use gas for a gas stove.Here gas is chemical energy.when we light the stove the fire lits up and here the <em>chemical energy energy is converted into thermal energy.</em>

Breaking and combining of bonds during combustion gives heat and light.This thermal energy heats the vessels and cooks the food through the <em>process of conduction, convection and radiation. </em>
