A student is conducting an experiment to determine how cold temperatures affect the growth of tadpoles in a tank of water. Which
instrument would be most appropriate to use in this experiment? a calibrated bulb thermometer that has a readout from –15°C to 25°C a calibrated digital thermometer that has a readout from 50°C to 250°C an uncalibrated bulb thermometer that has a readout from 0°C to 100°C an uncalibrated digital thermometer that has a readout from –10°C to 100°C
The carbon atom has unique properties that allow it to form covalent bonds to as many as four different atoms, making this versatile element ideal to serve as the basic structural component, or “backbone,” of the macromolecules. Individual carbon atoms have an incomplete outermost electron shell.
