5 0

An alginic acid is bio polymer.  The two modified carbohydrate units make up the basic building block of this polymer are guluronic acid ( G) and mannuronic acid (M).

Alginic acid is a biopolymer formed from chain of polyuronic acid. Alginic acid is polysaccharide found in brown algae. Alginic acid is also known as Algin. it is linear co-polymer.

Polysaccharides  are found in the food and it is most abundant carbohydrates. It is long chains of monosachharides. Polysaccharides  is formed by glycosidic linkage or bonds .

Example of polysaccharides are cellulose , starch , glucogen.

Which two ions have the same electron configuration?
djverab [1.8K]

Answer: A) Na+ and O2-

Explanation:

To know the electronic configuration, one has to determine the numbers of electrons present in each atom.

Na+ means a sodium atom that has lost one valence electron. A Sodium atom  initially has 11 electrons, but having lost an electron making it 10 electrons remaining with electron configuration of 1s2 2s2 2p6.

O2- means oxygen atom that has gained two valence electrons. An oxygen atom  initially has 8 electrons, having gained two electrons makes it 10 electrons with electron configuration of 1s2 2s2 2p6. same as Na+

The purpose of gaining or losing electrons is to attain a stable duplet or octet structure.
