Answer

Reactants: $O_2$ and $NO$ Product: $NO_2$

Work Step by Step

Reactants: In the reactants, we can identify 2 different molecules. 1. A molecule made of 2 red spheres. 2. A molecule made of 1 red sphere and 1 blue sphere. Since red spheres represent oxygen atoms, and blue spheres represent nitrogen atoms: 1. 2 oxygen atoms: $O_2$ 2. 1 oxygen atom, and 1 nitrogen atom: $NO$ Products: In the products, we can identify one compound: - 2 red spheres and 1 blue sphere. Since red spheres represent oxygen atoms, and blue spheres represent nitrogen atoms: - 2 oxygen atoms, and 1 nitrogen atom: $NO_2$
