"Polysaccharide carbohydrate" comprises an S. pneumoniae capsule.

<u>Option:</u> C

<u>Explanation:</u>

The lengthy sequences of carbohydrate molecules, primarily polymeric carbohydrates constructed of units of monosaccharides linked together through glycosidic connections, understood as Polysaccharides. This carbohydrate can respond to water by catalyzing amylase enzymes, which generate component sugars.

A major human pathogen is Streptococcus pneumoniae or pneumococcus. The virulence is primarily due to its polysaccharide envelope, which protects it from the recipient immune response, and this has led to comprehensive study of the shell.

For the reaction below, initially the partial pressure of all 3 gases is 1.0atm. . 2NH3(g)--&gt; N2(g) + 3H2(g) K, 0.83 1. When
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

The reaction would shift toward the reactants

When the reaction reach equilibrium the partial pressure of NH3 will be greater than 1atm

Explanation:

For the reaction:

2NH₃(g) ⇄ N₂(g) + 3H₂(g)

Where K is defined as:

K = \frac{P_{N_{2}}*P_{H_2}^3}{P_{NH_3}^2} = 0.83

As initial pressures of all 3 gases is 1.0atm, reaction quotient, Q, is:

Q = \frac{1atm*{1atm}^3}{1atm^2} = 1

As Q > K, <em>the reaction will produce more NH₃ until Q = K consuming N₂ and H₂.</em>

Thus, there are true:

<h3>The reaction would shift toward the reactants</h3><h3>When the reaction reach equilibrium the partial pressure of NH3 will be greater than 1atm</h3>

K forms the compound K2O , which is an ionic compound that is brittle. Identify another element, M , that is likely to form a br
meriva

The metal is sodium, Na.

<u>Explanation:</u>

K₂O is an ionic compound in which K is in the oxidation state of +1 and it belongs to group 1.

Group 1 elements also form oxides with the metals with the general formula M₂O and M being Na, K, Li and so on.

Metals Like sodium and Potassium are so brittle in nature and also their oxides.

So the other metal that form metal oxide which is brittle as well as ionic in nature, and so the metal oxide is Na₂O.

So the metal is sodium, Na.
