Answer:

Anode:

3Mg(s) ----------> 3Mg2+(aq) + 6e

Cathode:

2Al3+(aq) +6e ---------> 2Al(s)

Explanation:

Anode:

3Mg(s) ----------> 3Mg2+(aq) + 6e

Cathode:

2Al3+(aq) +6e ---------> 2Al(s)

Magnesium is more electro positive than aluminum hence it functions as the anode. Six electrons are lost/gained in the redox process as shown in the oxidation and reduction half reaction equations above. Magnesium is oxidized to magnesium ion while aluminum is reduced to elemental aluminum.

julia-pushkina [17]

A Biochemist is a type of chemist understands the structure of living systems and, in turn, their functions and ways to control them.

<h3>What is the chemistry of living systems called?</h3>

The chemistry of living system is known as Biochemistry.

Biochemistry is a study of the chemical changes that occur in living organisms.

Scientists that study biochemistry are called Biochemists.

Biochemistry studies the structure and function of biological molecules such as carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, e.t.c., as well the chemical reaction they undergo.

Biochemistry also studies the energy changes that occur in living systems.

In conclusion, the chemistry of living systems is called Biochemistry.

The options are: ( it can’t be repeated )
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

3- gamma radiation

Explanation:

Hello,

In the above question, 4 of the options are related to polymerization which are

1. Synthetic polymer

2. Natural polymer

3. Condensation polymerization

4. Addition polymerization.

The first two options are types of polymer that exists while the last two are polymerization techniques.

The odd option here which is "gamma radiation" is a particle which is emitted from radioactive substances during decay. It has no mass and no charge but it is highly penetrating and dangerous to human health.

However,

Synthetic polymers are also known as man made polymers and they exist around us because they're present in materials which we use everyday. An example is polyethylene, nylon-6,6 etc

Natural polymers are compounds which are polymeric in nature (compounds catenating to form a complex molecule). Natrual occurring polymers can be found in proteins and some lipids.
