Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

For an atom to be stable in nature, it is required that the atom must have more number of neutrons as compared to protons.

But if the atom has more number of protons then due like positive charge more repulsion will occur inside the nucleus and therefore, the atom will become unstable. This is because then electrostatic force of repulsion will be greater than the nuclear binding force.

Thus, we can conclude that a stable atom that has a large nucleus most likely contains more neutrons than protons.

Answer:

The answer is pyruvate → lactate

Explanation:

In the reaction of glycolysis, glucose breaks down to form pyruvate yielding ATP and NADH.

Under or during strenuous exercise, which is an anaerobic condition, lactate is formed by the reoxidization of NADH and the conversion of pyruvate to lactate.

Which combination of reactants will produce ethyl 3-phenyl-3-oxopropanoate when treated first with an alkoxide and then with a d

Nezavi [6.7K]

Ethyl acetate and methyl benzoate combination of reactants will produce ethyl 3-phenyl-3-oxopropanoate when treated first with an alkoxide and then with a diluted aqueous acid

<h3>Ethyl acetate</h3>

One of the most straightforward carboxylate esters is ethyl acetate. The simplest is methyl formate, a former Molecule of the Week. Most people enjoy the taste and aroma of the colorless liquid's sweet, fruity scent.

Ethyl acetate was initially created by combining ethanol and acetic acid, as one might anticipate. The process was the traditional Fischer esterification, which dates back to 1895 and is catalyzed by an acid. This commercial synthesis is still the most popular. A different approach is the Tishchenko reaction, in which acetaldehyde disproportionately reacts with base to form alcohol and acid, which subsequently esterify naturally.

Which of the following is an example of an exothermic process?

Neporo4naja [7]

For the answer to the question above. It is Condensing. For condensation is process or reaction accompanied by the release of heat. For example, the condensation of rain from water vapor is an example of exothermic process.
