Answer:
when chemical bonds between atoms are formed or broken
Answer:
Smallest to biggest order is as follows.
C < O < Amino < Water < Glucose < Starch < protein.
Explanation:
The given atoms or molecules and their atomic masses is as follows.
Glucose -
- 180 g/mol
Starch -
- 692.7 g/mol
Protein -
- it is vary for different proteins.
Carbon - C - 12 g/mol
Water -
- 18 g/mol
Amino -
- 17 g/mol
Oxygen - O - 16 g/mol
Increase the molar mass increases size of the molecules.
Therefore, Smallest to biggest order is as follows.
C < O < Amino < Water < Glucose < Starch < protein.
The goal of an element is to obtain a noble gas configuration (obtaining a full valence shell). Therefore, certain elements will either gain or lose electrons in order to obtain this full valence shell. In the case of sodium chloride, it is easy for sodium (having one valence electron) to give up its one electron. Chlorine (having seven valence electrons) wants sodium’s electron because it completes its outer shell and chlorine obtains this noble gas configuration. Ionic bonds always involve a transfer of electrons.
