Answer:
Explanation:
THE PHOTOCHEMICAL(LIGHT) REACTIONS :This is a phase of photosynthesis where sunlight is used as a source of energy to manufacture two chemical compounds which are "Reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate"-NADPH and "Adenosine triphosphate"-ATP.This phase of photosynthesis involves 4 steps or reactions which are :
STEP 1 : Activation or Energization of chlorophyll - In this reaction,chlorophyll molecules in green algae or plants absorb sunlight and become activated,that is the electrons of the chlorophyll molecule acquire solar energy and become excited.
STEP 2 : PHOTOLYSIS OF WATER - Here the energy absorbed by the chlorophyll molecules are used to split water molecules into H+ ions and OH-- ions.
STEP 3:Formation of NADPH -The hydrogen ions (H+) produced reacts with an NADP ( an electron carrier in the chlorophyll) to form NADPH.
STEP 4: FORMATION OF ATP - The high energy generated from the electron transfer process or chain is used to add a phosphate group to ADP (Adenosine dphosphate) to form ATP.
DARK PHASE :In this phase of photosynthesis,the NADPH generated in the light phase is used as a reducing equivalent to reduce CO2 to form Glucose (food) using the ATP generated as a source of energy.
Answer: N3 H12 P O3
Explanation:
From the question :
N = 31.57% H = 9.10% P = 23.27%
O= 36.06%
Divide each of the element by their respective relative atomic masses.
N = 31.57 / 14 = 2.26
H = 9.10/ 1 = 9.10
P = 23.27 / 31= 0.750
O =36.06 / 16 = 2.25
Divide each answer by the lowest of them all, we then have:
N = 2.26/ 0.750 = Approx = 3
H = 9.10 / 0.750 = Approx = 12
P = 0.750/ 0.750= 1
O = 2.25 / 0.750 = Approx = 3
The empiral formula is
N3 H12 P O3
