According to Dalton's Law, in a mixture of non-reacting gasses, thetotal pressure<span> exerted is the sum of the </span>partial pressures<span> of the component gasses. In more complicated circumstances, equilibrium states come into effect, but fortunately for us, </span>oxygen<span> is non-reactive with </span>water vapor<span>.</span>
Answer:
C + O2 → CO2
Explanation:
C + O2 → CO ----------------- (1)
from equ (1) on reactant side, C has 1 mole, O has 2 moles
from equ (1) on product side, C has 1 mole, O has 1 mole
Thus, to balance the equation, O should have 2 moles
C + O2 → CO2
The early atmosphere was probably mostly carbon dioxide, with little or no oxygen. <span>The proportion of oxygen went up because of </span>photosynthesis. The photosynthesis was conducted from <span>tiny organisms.
</span><span>cyanobacteria, or blue-green algae. </span><span>
They </span>used sunshine, water and carbon dioxide to produce carbohydrates and, yes, oxygen. This change to the atmosphere was very important because the <span>breathable air we enjoy today was created.</span>
Answer:
heat energy
Explanation:
Chemical reactions often involve changes in energy due to the breaking and formation of bonds. Reactions in which energy is released are exothermic reactions, while those that take in heat energy are endothermic.
