Determine the missing species:
Galina-37 [17]

Answer: 4. ^{0}_{-1}\textrm{e} and ^{0}_{1}\textrm{e}

Explanation:

a) The given reaction is ^{41}_{20}\textrm{Ca}+^{x}_{y}\textrm{X}\rightarrow ^{41}_{19}\textrm {K}

As the mass on both reactant and product side must be equal:

41+x=41

x=0

As the atomic number on both reactant and product side must be equal:

20+y=19

y=-1

^{41}_{20}\textrm{Ca}+^{0}_{-1}\textrm{e}\rightarrow ^{41}_{19}\textrm {K}

b) ^{15}_{8}\textrm{O}\rightarrow ^{15}_{7}\textrm{N}+^{x}_{y}\textrm{X}

Total mass on reactant side = total mass on product side

15 =15 + x

x = 0

Total atomic number on reactant side = total atomic number on product side

8 = 7 + y

y = 1

^{15}_{8}\textrm{O}\rightarrow ^{15}_{7}\textrm{N}+^{0}_{1}\textrm{e}

The role of pigments both in capturing light energy and in converting it to the chemical energy of ATP and NADPH.
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

The explanation of the processes in which pigments are involved (capturing light and forming ATP and NADPH) is given in the following paragraphs)

Explanation:

Pigments are molecules with the capacity of absorbing light. Each pigment captures light of a specific wavelength. Plants contain different types of pigments like chlorophylls, xanthophylls, carotenoids, and others.

Chloroplasts (organelles present in cells of plants), contain pigmants that absorb solar radiation, triggering a series of reactions collectively known as photosynthesis. When light incides on a pigment, an electron of this molecules is excitated, goes into another level of energy and starts to pass through a series of carrier molecules to finally to a final aceptor of electrons. During this transport, part of the energy contained in the electron is used to generates a hydrogen gradient that provides energy. As a result of these processes, a molecule that is called  NADP+ accepts two electrons and an hydrogen to form NADPH, while another molecule known as ADP captures  an atom of phosphorous and gives rise to ATP (through the action of a protein called ATP sintase)..

Which type of reactions form salts?
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Neutralization reactions are the reactions type which form salts.

Explanation:

Salts are formed by ionic bonds when the oxidation states of anions and cations are equal and have opposite signs. So one should be highly electronegative in nature and another should be highly electropositive in nature. So the electropositive element will be ready to give electrons and the electronegative element will be ready to accept all the electrons given by the electropositive element. As a whole the compound will be neutrally charged by adding of equal number of positively charged and negatively charged ions.

The reduction or addition of electrons will be occurring in cations and the oxidation or removal of electrons will be occurring in anions.

So the salt formation is based on neutralization reactions.

Co(g) effuses at a rate that is ______ times that of cl2(g) under the same conditions.
il63 [147K]

Answer is: the ratio of the effusion rate is 1.59 : 1.

1) rate of effusion of carbon monoxide gas = 1/√M(CO).  

rate of effusion of carbon monoxide gas = 1/√28.

rate of effusion of carbon monoxide gas = 0.189.  

2) rate of effusion of chlorine = 1/√M(Cl₂).  

rate of effusion of chlorine = 1/√70.9.  

rate of effusion of chlorine = 0.119.  

rate of effusion of carbon monoxide : rate of effusion of chlorine =

= 0.189 : 0.119 / ÷0.119.

rate of effusion of carbon monoxide : rate of effusion of chlorine = 1.59 : 1.

Why it is that evaporation causes cooling,but boiling causes heating?
rusak2 [61]
In evaporation due to internal heat, kinetic energy of molecules increases and they come to the top and take out that heat with them when they evaporate thus causes cooling 
in boiling as heat is given to the molecules so their kinetic energy increases and they start vibrating with great energy and thus causes heating
