irina [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

  • The chemical reaction for cellular respiration  is as follows -

C₆H₁₂O₆ ( Glucose ) + 6 O₂ ( Oxygen ) --------------> 6CO₂  ( Carbon dioxide ) +  6H₂O ( Water ) + 38 ATP molecules ( Energy ) .

This is an example of oxidation of carbon .

  • The chemical reaction for photosynthesis  is as follows -

6CO₂  ( Carbon dioxide ) + 6H₂O ( Water ) --------------> C₆H₁₂O₆( Glucose ) + 6 O₂  ( Oxygen ).

This is an example of reduction of carbon .

The atomic number of fluorine is 9. How many electrons does an ion of fluorine have if it is represented by the symbol shown bel
Irina-Kira [14]
  • See charge on ion is -1 .

Hence it has taken 1 electron

Now first look at EC of Fluorine(F)

\\ \bull\sf\dashrightarrow 1s^22s^22p^5

  • Now one electron added .hence no of electrons is 10now

Look at the EC

\\ \bull\sf\dashrightarrow 1s^22s^22p^6

Or

\\ \bull\sf\dashrightarrow [He]

Option C is correct.
