Answer:

2H2(g) + O2(g) ------------------> 2H2O(g)

Explanation:

Basically, the reaction of hydrogen and oxygen is a type of combination reaction and forms steam as its end product. The pure hydrogen burns with a blue flame with oxygen. Industrially, where the combination of hydrogen and oxygen is needed to undergo rapidly, platinum catalyst is introduced. This reaction gives steam rapidly. Platinum speeds up the rate of the reaction of hydrogen and oxygen gases.

Is a tick autotroph or heterotroph? Pls explane

LiRa [457]

Answer:

Autotrophs are known as producers because they are able to make their own food from raw materials and energy. Examples include plants, algae, and some types of bacteria. Heterotrophs are known as consumers because they consume producers or other consumers. Dogs, birds, fish, and humans are all examples of heterotrophs

Explanation:

So they are heterotrophs

Ticks are tiny parasites that feed on the blood of their hosts (humans and animals) in order to survive and advance to the next life cycle stage.

Two nonpolar organic liquids, hexane (C6H14) and heptane (C7H16), are mixed. Do you expect ΔHsoln to be a large positive number,

Aliun [14]

Answer:

ΔH of solution is expected to be close to zero.

Explanation:

When we mix two non polar organic liquids like hexane and heptane,the resulting mixture formed is an ideal solution.An ideal solution is formed when the force of attraction between the molecules of the two liquids is equal to the force of attraction between the molecules of the same type.

For instance if liquids A and B are mixed,

$F_{A-A}$ = $F_{B-B}$ = $F_{A-B}$

Hence the condition before and after mixing remains unchanged.

Since enthalpy change is associated with inter molecular force of attraction the enthalpy change for ideal solution is zero.

More examples of ideal solutions are:

1. Ethanol and Methanol

2. Benzene and Toluene

3. Ethyl bromide and Ethyl iodide

Lars observes a substance to be a solid and to float in water at room temperature (23°C). Based on the given properties, which s

Triss [41]

Answer:

D. Sulfur Hexafluride

Explanation:

above it says the substance floats above water at room temperature and lists some substances and their density at room temp!
we know that the density of water is 1.0 so the substance in order for it to float has to be less than 1.0 and the densities for Sulfer Hexa, are all less than 1!!

I hope this helped !!
