Oceanic crust is the relatively thin part of the earths crust which underlies the ocean basins. it is geologically young compared with the continental crust and consists of basaltic rock overlain by sediments

First determine the formal oxidation numbers:
N changes from +2 to +5 going from NO to (NO3)- O remains -2 the whole time Cr changes from +6 to +3
Now write the half reactions, balance the oxygens with the required number of waters and then balance the hydrogens with the required number of protons:
Oxidation half reaction:
NO(aq) + 2 H2O(l) ---> (NO3)-(aq) + 4 H+(aq) + 3 e-
Reduction half reaction:
(Cr2O7)2-(aq) + 14 H+(aq) + 6 e- ---> 2 Cr3+(aq) + 7 H2O(l)
Now balance the number of electrons on both sides and add them together:
2 NO(aq) + 4 H2O(l) ---> 2 (NO3)-(aq) + 8 H+(aq) + 6 e- (Cr2O7)2-(aq) + 14 H+(aq) + 6 e- ---> 2 Cr3+(aq) + 7 H2O(l) --------------------------------------... 2 NO(aq) + (Cr2O7)2-(aq) + 6 H+(aq) ---> 2 (NO3)-(aq) + 2 Cr3+(aq) + 3 H2O(l)
Notice that the charge is the same in both sides, which is an indication that the redox equation has been balanced correctly:
-2 + 6 = -2 + 2(+3) +4 = +4
Answer: energy is transferred, but it can go to the products or the reactants.
Explanation: in a chemical reaction, the atoms and molecules that interact with each other are called reactants.
Answer:
This one represents calcium atoms that have lost two electrons >>Ca+2
