Proteins are polymers of amino acids.
The human body requires 20 amino acids which can be obtained by breaking down proteins. Out of the 20, 9 are essential amino acids which the human body cannot synthesize, and it is obtained only from food source.
Answer:
½O 2 + 2e - + H 2O → 2OH.
Explanation:
Redox reactions - Higher
In terms of electrons:
oxidation is loss of electrons
reduction is gain of electrons
Rusting is a complex process. The example below show why both water and oxygen are needed for rusting to occur. They are interesting examples of oxidation, reduction and the use of half equations:
iron loses electrons and is oxidised to iron(II) ions: Fe → Fe2+ + 2e-
oxygen gains electrons in the presence of water and is reduced: ½O2 + 2e- + H2O → 2OH-
iron(II) ions lose electrons and are oxidised to iron(III) ions by oxygen: 2Fe2+ + ½O2 → 2Fe3+ + O2-
The answer would be D. Hope this helps
The formal charge on each atom can be known by counting up the number of valence electrons that is present on each atom.
<h3>What is Lewis structure?</h3>
The term Lewis structure is the representation of a compound using its symbols and showing the valence electrons as dots. This question is incomplete as the Lewis structures were not shown.
If it is shown, we can know the formal charge on each atom by counting up the number of valence electrons that is present on each atom.
