Why is the nitrogen important to humans

Chemistry
1 answer:
alexandr402 [8]2 years ago
7 0

Nitrogen is important for all humans because it is a major part of amino acids, which are the building constituents of proteins and of nucleic acids such as deoxyribonucleic acid, which transfers genetic information to the next generation.

<h3>What is the nitrogen cycle?</h3>

It is the biogeochemical circuit that supplies nitrogen to living things and keeps it circulating in the biosphere.

Importance of the nitrogen :

  • The nitrogen that is part of the atmosphere in the form of N₂ cannot be used by animals and plants, and for this reason, this mechanism is needed to convert the N₂ into usable forms.

  • Following the order of the food chain, the nitrogen in the plants passes to the herbivorous animals and then to the carnivores, spreading between the different links of the food pyramid.

  • Humans use nitrogen to make amino acids, proteins, nucleic acids, and DNA.

Therefore, we can conclude that the nitrogen is a vital circuit for the existence of Humans and all other living organism since we are unable to fix nitrogen from its gaseous form.

According to the following balanced equation, 2 formula units of Iron (III) Oxide (Fe2O3) can be formed by reacting 4 atoms of i
-Dominant- [34]
You have to use Avogadro's number (6.02x10^23 molecules/mole) to find the number of moles each reactant starts off with.
moles of Fe and O₂:
12 atoms/(6.02x10^23 atoms/mole)=1.99x10^-23 mol Fe
6 molecules/(6.02x10^23 molecules/mole)=9.967x10^-24 mol <span>O₂
</span>Then you find the limiting reagent by finding how much product each given amount of reactant can make.  Which ever one produces the least amount of product is the limiting reagent.
amount of Fe₂O₃ produced:
<span>(1.99x10^-23 mol Fe)x(2mol/4mol)= 9.967x10^-24mol Fe</span>₂O₃<span> 
</span>(9.967x10^-24 mol O₂)x(2mol/3mol)= 6.645x10^-24 mol Fe₂O₃<span> 
</span>since oxygen produces the leas amount of product, oxygen is the limiting reagent.  since we know that oxygen is the limiting reagent we can use the amount of product formed with oxygen to find the amount of iron used.
6.645x10^-24 mol Fe₂O₃x(4mol/2mol)=1.329x10^-23 mol Fe consumed
<span> find the amount left over by subtracting the original amount of Fe by the amount consumed in the reaction.
</span>1.993x10^-23-1.329x10^-23= 6.645x10^-23mol Fe left
 find the number of atoms by multiplying that by Avogadro's number.
<span>(6.645x10^-23mol)x(6.02x10^23 atoms/mol)=4 atoms
</span>therefore 4 atoms of Fe will be left over after the reaction happens.

I hope this helps.

What was Thompson’s model of the atom called
shtirl [24]

J. J. Thomson, who discovered the electron in 1897, proposed the plum pudding model of the atom in 1904 before the discovery of the atomic nucleus in order to include the electron in the atomic model. In Thomson's model, the atom is composed of electrons (which Thomson still called “corpuscles,” though G. J.

A student has a piece of aluminum metal what is the most reasonable assumption a student can make about the metal
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

<h2>- It could be stretched into a thin wire.</h2>

Explanation:

As per the question, the most rational claim that the student can make about the aluminum metal is that 'it could be stretched into a thin wire' without breaking which shows its ductility. It is one of the most significant characteristics of a metal. Metals can conduct electricity in any state and not only when melted. Thus, option A is wrong. Options C and D are incorrect as metals neither have the same shape always nor do they break on hitting with a hammer. Therefore, <u>option E</u> is the correct answer.
