Answer:
The Photosynthesis process
Explanation:
Plants, algae, and some other organisms can transform the sunlight energy into chemical energy. The photosynthesis process occur thanks to the chloroplasts. The chloroplast is an organelle found in all green plants. Inside of the chloroplast you can find the thylakoids which are arranged in stacks named grana, they have membranes with chloropyll a photosynthetic pigment, also you can find the photosystems, they are functional and structural units of protein complexes. The thylakoids capture the light and allow the reactions to transform CO2. The set of reactions that occurs in the chloroplasts are known as the Calvin cycle.
The general equation of photosynthesis is:
6 CO2 + 6 H2O + Energy -> C6H12O6 + 6 O2
Carbon Dioxide + water + Light -> Glucose (sugar) + Oxygen
After, this glucose is transformed into pyruvate, and it allowed the release of denosine triphosphate (ATP) by cellular respiration. The ATP is an organic chemical that is requires for the cell to perform any process (any kind or work).

The skeletal structure of an organic compound is an abbreviated representation of its molecular structure, they are quick and easy to draw.
For example, the following image shows the skeletal structure of a compound:
The peaks represent the carbons. We must remember that carbon can have a maximum of 4 bonds.
Now, I will show you how is the structure of this specific compound:
This is ternary alcohol, called 2-methyl-2-butanol. If you see carefully, you will notice that each carbon has 4 bonds. The functional groups present will be OH. The skeletal structure will be:
<u>larger is the value of </u><u> the higher will the solubility of solid in water.</u>
What is called compound?
- In chemistry, a compound is a substance made up of two or more different chemical elements combined in a fixed ratio.
- When the elements come together, they react with each other and form chemical bonds that are difficult to break.
- These bonds form as a result of sharing or exchanging electrons between atoms.
The equation for the dissociation of a solid MX in water is given below
MX(s) ⇄ Mⁿ⁺(aq) + Xⁿ⁻ (aq)
Assume s be the solubility of MX in pure water, then the equilibrium concentrations of ions are
[ Mⁿ⁺] = s
[ Xⁿ⁻ ] = s
The expression for the solubility product constant () is as follows
= [ Mⁿ⁺] [ Xⁿ⁻ ]
= s²
That is, larger is the value of the higher will the solubility of solid in water.
