The three functional groups shown in the image are: ester, alkoxy and carboxyl.

<h3>What are functional groups?</h3>

Chemical properties depend on its structure. Certain properties, too, are attributable to an atomic group ordered in a particular way, apart from the whole of the molecule. Such groups of atoms that determine the chemical properties of compounds are called<em> functional groups</em>.

The functional group can be on the primary, secondary, or tertiary carbon.

Functional groups are often found on molecules of biological importance.

Functional groups are usually formed by a set of elements such as carbon, hydrogen and oxygen, attached to the hydrocarbon chain, giving the molecule characteristics. Can also include other elements such as sulfur or nitrogen.

Molecules can have more than one functional group on it, having different combinations on it that can affect properties of the molecule such as solubility, structure, or reactivity.

Carboxyl groups are usually seen in amino acids, fatty acids and other molecules since it is a fairly common functional group.

Therefore, we can confirm that the three functional groups shown in the image are: ester, alkoxy and carboxyl.

A sample of an uranium compound is found to be losing mass gradually. Explain what is happening to the sample.​
yan [13]

Answer:

The uranium in the sample of the compound is radioactive

Explanation:

Some atoms can split on their own. Some split when bombarded by energetic particles. Such atoms are said to be radioactive.

Radioactivity is borne out of the drive of an atom to reach stabillity. Every atom have a specific neutron/proton ratio which ensures stability of the nucleus. A nucleus with a stability ratio different from that which makes it stable will become unstable and split into one or more other nuclei with emissons of energetic particles.

Note: neutrons and protons dictates the mass of an atom. They are located in the nucleus which is the site for nuclear radioactive reactions.
