Answer 1

Answer:

Please mark as brainlist answer please..

Answer 2

Answer:

THE BALANCED CHEMICAL EQUATION IS

N₂  +  O₂  →  2 NO

CONDITIONS

LIGHTENING DISCHARGE

Explanation:

• So the formation of nitric oxide (NO) from nitrogen and oxygen is only carried out in thunder storms as they help in the dissociation of N₂ and O₂ which are very stable and have a high bond dissociation enthalpy thereby are not easily dissociated

• In order to create this NO artificially it is very difficult as it needs high amount of energy like in a thunderstorm or lightening.

• To achieve this we need to use something called as a silent electric discharge

• This is an artificial medium which acts similar to the lightening

• This provides a reasonable explanation onto why nitrogen and oxygen don't combine in air under normal conditions

• A balanced electric equation is one which follows law of conservation of moles

• The balanced chemical equation is

                   N₂  +  O₂  →  2 NO
