What do the symbols tell you about the conditions of the reactions shown to the right? check all of the boxes that apply. the products and reactants of both reactions are gases. reaction 1 occurs at high pressure. reaction 2 makes a small amount of an additional product. a catalyst is used for reaction 2. two equations: 1: 3 upper h subscript 2 (g) plus upper n subscript 2 (g), 450 degrees celsius over right arrow, 2 upper n upper h subscript 2 (g). 2. two upper s upper o subscript 2 (g) plus upper o subscript 2 (g), v subscript 2 upper o subscript 5 over right arrow, 2 upper s upper o subscript 3 (g).

Final answer:

The symbols in the equations indicate high temperature for Reaction 1, the use of a catalyst for Reaction 2, and that all reactants and products for both reactions are in the gaseous state.

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the provided chemical equations, we can determine the conditions of the reactions.

For Reaction 1, the equation is 3 H2 (g) + N2 (g) → 2 NH3 (g) with the temperature condition of 450 degrees Celsius indicated above the reaction arrow.

This tells us that the reaction is performed at a high temperature, likely to increase the rate of reaction and that all the reactants and products are in the gaseous state.

There is no explicit indication of high pressure, despite temperature being a condition; therefore, the statement that reaction 1 occurs at high pressure is not supported by the given information.

For Reaction 2, the equation is 2 SO2 (g) + O2 (g) → 2 SO3 (g) with a catalyst (V2O5) written above the arrow.

The presence of V2O5 indicates that a catalyst is used to increase the reaction rate without being consumed in the process.

Similar to Reaction 1, all substances involved are gases.

There is no information provided to suggest that Reaction 2 makes a small amount of an additional product.

The correct options are: The products and reactants of both reactions are gases and Reaction 2 makes a small amount of an additional product.

**Here are the correct boxes to check based on the symbols in the reactions:**

- **The products and reactants of both reactions are gases.** (All chemical species have the (g) symbol, indicating gaseous state.)

- **Reaction 2 makes a small amount of an additional product.** (The "n" in the product 2SO₃ indicates a variable yield, suggesting a small amount of an additional product is formed.)

**Incorrect options:**

- **Reaction 1 occurs at high pressure.** (There's no symbol in the reaction equation indicating high pressure.)

- **A catalyst is used for reaction 2.** (The "nO₅" above the arrow in reaction 2 does not denote a catalyst; it's a coefficient for a variable yield product.)

The probable question may be:
