Chemistry

The <u>secretion</u><u> </u>of acids, buffers, enzymes, and water aids in the breakdown of food.

The food moves through the gastrointestinal tract and breaks down into smaller particles for energy, cell repair, and growth.

Digestion begins when eating and chewing food with the help of teeth in the mouth, then it goes down to the small intestine.

While moving through the gastrointestinal tract it mixes with juices, acids, enzymes, and water which disintegrates the large molecules of food into smaller ones and makes it suitable for assimilation and absorption in the body.

what are we/what has someone did to prevent/lessen the negative side effects of aluminium extraction?
kogti [31]

Aluminum is one of the main factors that reduce plant growth in acid soils. Although it is generally harmful to plants in soils with a neutral medium, the concentration of positive aluminum ions in acid soils increases and malfunctions in root and function growth.

Most acid soils are saturated with aluminum rather than hydrogen ions. Soil acidity is the result of hydrolysis of aluminum compounds. This principle (lime correction) to determine the degree of base saturation in the soil has become the basis of the methods used in soil testing laboratories to determine the lime requirements for soil. Application of lime to soil reduces the toxicity of aluminum to plants. Note This connector loads slowly.

Adaptation of wheat to allow aluminum to be carried out is due to the fact that aluminum releases organic compounds that in turn combine with harmful aluminum cations. It is believed that sorghum has the same endurance. The first genes found to withstand aluminum were found in wheat. Aluminum sulphide bearing has been found to be governed by an individual gene, such as in wheat. This is not the case in all plants.

What is the correct balanced equation for the reaction of sodium with water?
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

 A.    2Na       +    2H₂O   →    2NaOH   +  H₂  

Explanation:

When sodium is reacted with water, a single replacement reaction occurs. The product of the reaction is typically sodium hydroxide and hydrogen gas.

Reactants:

        Sodium +  water

Product:

        Sodium hydroxide + hydrogen gas

So;

         2Na       +    2H₂O   →    2NaOH   +  H₂
