Answer: <span>Molecular geometry around each carbon atom in a saturated hydrocarbon is
Tetrahedral.
Explanation: </span> In saturated hydrocarbons (-CH₂-) the central atom (
carbon) is bonded to either three or two hydrogen atoms and one or two carbon atoms. So, the central atom is having four electron pairs and all pairs are bonding pairs and lacks any lone pair of electron. According to
Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion (VSEPR)
Theory the central atom with four bonding pair electrons and zero lone pair electrons will attain a
tetrahedral geometry with
bond angles of 109°.
Answer: <u>The respiratory system </u>
Explanation: It includes the nose, mouth, throat, voice box, windpipe, and lungs. Air enters the respiratory system through the nose or the mouth.
I would say : D) Newton's 3rd law of motion.
-Hope this helps.
Answer:
Calcium is then pumped back into the sarcoplasmic reticulum breaking the link between actin and myosin.
Explanation:
Actin and myosin return to their unbound state causing the muscle to relax. Alternatively relaxation (failure) will also occur when ATP is no longer available.
They define acids as proton donors, and bases as proton acceptors
If you were to have:
HNO3 + H2O -> H3O+. + NO3-
You can see that the nitric acid (HNO3) gave a hydrogen ion which has 1 proton, 0 neutrons and 0 electrons to the water so we just say that it gave a proton.
Now let's see a base
NH3 + H2O -> NH4+ + OH-
Now, you can see that the ammonia (NH3) gained a hydrogen ion (proton) from the water to become ammonium(NH4). which means it accepted a proton
That's basically it. Feel free to ask if you have any further questions
