How does the size change when an atom forms a cation and when an atom forms an anion?

Chemistry

<span>A cation is an atom that loses a valence electron. When a valence electron is released there is one electron less to create a repulsive force. The loss of a repulsive force will allow the atom to pull tighter together. An anion would therefore be larger in size due to increased repulsion of the valence electrons.</span>

Identify the correct order of electron transfers in the electron transport chain starting from FADH2.
Damm [24]

Answer:

FADH₂ → Q coenzyme → Complex III → c cytochrome → Complex IV → O₂

Explanation:

During oxidative phosphorylation, the electrons from NADH and FADH₂ are combined with O₂ and the energy released in the process is used to synthesize ATP from ADP.

The components of the electron transport chain are located in the internal part of the mitochondrial membrane in eukaryotic cells, and in the cell membrane in bacteria. The transporters in the electron transport chain are organized into four complexes in the inner mitochondrial membrane. A fifth complex then couples these reactions to the ATP synthesis.

Complex II receives the electrons from the succinate, which is an intermediary in the Krebs cycle. These electrons are transferred to the FADH₂ and then to the Q coenzyme. This liposoluble molecule will transport the electrons from Complex II to Complex III. In this complex, the electrons are transferred from the <em>b</em> cytochrome to the <em>c</em> cytochrome. This <em>c </em>cytochrome, which is a peripheric membrane protein located in the external part of the inner membrane, then transports the electrons to Complex IV where finally they are transferred to the oxygen.

Real life example of when temperature increases, then the pressure increases.
timurjin [86]

Answer:

Tyre

In cold weather, you might have regularly kept a check on the pressure of the tyres of your car. Driving increases the temperature of the tyres, and, therefore, the air inside the tyre warms and expands. When you measure the pressure of the tyres at the time when you have just driven the car, it will be high. However, in cold weather, the pressure of the tyres will be low. So, it is recommended that you should always measure the pressure of the tyres.

fill in the blanks: label the different parts of the rock cycle where igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rock are formed.
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

☞rock cycle

=> The rock cycle is a basic concept in geology that describes transitions through geologic time among the three main rock types: sedimentary, metamorphic, and igneous. Each rock type is altered when it is forced out of its equilibrium conditions.

=> There are three main kinds of rocks: igneous rock, metamorphic rock, and sedimentary rock. ... It can erode into sediment or melt into magma. It is formed under extreme pressure and temperature deep inside mountain chains.
