A decomposition reaction occurs when one reactant breaks down into two or more products. It can be represented by the general equation:

AB → A + B

In this equation, AB represents the reactant that begins the reaction, and A and B represent the products of the reaction. The arrow shows the direction in which the reaction occurs.

Q: What is the chemical equation for the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to water(H2O) and oxygen (O2)?

A: The equation for this decomposition reaction is:

<span>2 H2O2 → 2 H2O + O<span>2</span></span>

Hey!!

Here is your answer >>>

Decomposition reaction is when, a compound breaks into multiple compounds

For example -

2Al2O3 => 4Al + 3O2

Basic interpretation =

AB => A + B

Hope my answer helps!

A nucleotide consists of a phosphate group, a pentose sugar, and a __________________, all linked together by covalent bonds. po
solong [7]

Answer:

d. nitrogen-containing base .

Explanation:

A nucleotide comprises a phosphate group, a pentose sugar and a nitrogenous base (nitrogen-containing base).

A nitrogenous base is a type of aromatic heterocyclic organic compound which essentially has nitrogen in it. The base can be a purine or pyrimidine. Purine nitrogenous bases are adenine (A) and guanine (G) while pyrimidine nitrogenous bases are cytosine (C), thiamine (T) and uracil (U).

Till the time a base is not attached to covalently linked phosphate group and a pentose sugar, it is known as nucleoside. But as soon as we attach any nitrogenous base to the nucleoside, a nucleotide is formed. So it means a nucleotide is nucleoside + nitrogenous base.

Examples are as under:

A nucleotide which has adenine as nitrogenous base is known as adenosine triphosphate (ATP) while a nucleotide which has guanine as nitrogenous base is known as Guanosine-5'-triphosphate (GTP).

Art [367]
Cora might have been diagnosed with another disease that presents similarly as tardive dyskinesia (this disease is a common adverse effect of antipsychotic drugs). Her misdiagnosis is most likely Sydenham's Chorea which affects people with rheumatic fevers. Other differentials include seizures and essential tremors.

Why would you probably not see a volcano on the east coast of the United States?
DerKrebs [107]

D. There are no major fault lines or hot spots close by.

Why?

Because "They don’t occur anywhere else other than along the Ring of Fire" is incorrect, the Ring of Fire is just a place where many volcanoes are.

Because "The composition of the rock in that area is not conductive to eruptions." they type of rock doesn't play that much of a role in the formation of volcanoes

Because "The magma doesn’t have enough silica or gas to form an explosive eruption." It isn't a gass that is found, it is the build up of pressure from fultlines moving and things on the inside of the earth.

Please Mark Branilest!
