The compound (A) is 2-bromo-pentane. See attached picture for the chemical diagram.

Explanation:

2-bromo-pentane (A) reacts with bromine (Br₂) under UV light to form 2,2-dibromopentane and HBr. Also 2-bromo-pentane (A) reacts with NaSH to from pentane-2-thiol, which have an asimetric carbon, and NaBr.

You may find the chemical reactions and diagrams of the compounds in the attached picture.

A glass marble is rubbed against a piece of silk. As a result the piece of fabric acquires extra electrons. What happens to the
Natalija [7]

Answer:

There was an electron transfer where the marble has lost the same amount of electrons (being positively charged) that the piece of silk has gained (being negatively charged).

Explanation:

As a result of this transfer of electrons and the charges induced in the objects they will attract.

When a body is endowed with electrical properties, that is, it acquires electrical charges, it is said to have been electrified.

Electrification is one of the phenomena that studies electrostatics.

To explain how static electricity originates, we must consider that matter is made of atoms, and atoms of charged particles, a nucleus surrounded by a cloud of electrons. Normally, matter is neutral (not electrified), it has the same number of positive and negative charges.

Some atoms are easier to lose their electrons than others. If a material tends to lose some of its electrons when it comes into contact with another, it is said to be more positive in the Triboelectric series. If a material tends to capture electrons when it comes into contact with another material, that material is more negative in the triboelectric series.

What do proteins act as?
Tresset [83]

Proteins are made from long chains of smaller molecules called amino acids. These long chains are folded into particular shapes. This is important in relation to how antibodies and enzymes work.

Enzymes are biological catalysts. There are optimum temperatures and pH values at which their activity is greatest. Enzymes are also proteins. If the shape of an enzyme changes, it may no longer work (it is said to have been 'denatured'). maybe right?
