The atomic number of sulfur is 16, which indicates that a sulfur atom contains

Chemistry
1 answer:
zvonat [6]3 years ago
8 0
<span>The atomic number of an element indicates only how many protons are in that specific element. The atomic number of sulfur is 16, so it means that in one sulfur atom, there are 16 protons. The number of protons is also equal to the number of electrons in any given atom, so this number also indicates that there are 16 electrons in a sulfur atom.</span>

Explain the Law of Conservation of Mass in terms of the atoms and bonds in a chemical reaction.
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

no matter is destroyed or created, it merely changes form. In terms of atoms and bonds, there will be the same amount of atoms at the beginning of an experiment as the amount of atoms at the end of experiment. All that will have happened, is that during the reaction, bonds will have been broken and formed making new compounds. However, the amount of atoms remains exactly the same because matter can not be created or destroyed

Hope this helps!

Which is an example of ionization?
strojnjashka [21]
Answer: SO₂ + H₂O → HSO₃ ⁻ + H⁺

Justification:

1) Ionization means formation of ions.

2) Ions are species that are not neutral, they are charged, in virtue of having less or more electrons than protons.

3) Ionization may happen in different environments.

4) Ionic compunds, like Mg(OH)₂ dissociate into ions (ionize) in water. That is the example shown in the fourth option:

Mg(OH)₂ → Mg ²⁺ + 2OH⁻

5) How much a ionic compound dissociates in water (ionize) depends on the Ksp (product solubility constant) which measures the concentrations of the ions that can be in the solution.


6) The Ksp for Mg(OH)₂ is very low, meaning that it will slightly ionize.

7) SO₂ + H₂O forms H₂SO₄, which is a strong acid, meaning that it will ionize fully in water, into the ions HSO₃ ⁻ and H⁺, so the third option is a good example of ionization.

What is the significance of enzymes in maintaining homeostasis in living organisms ?
GalinKa [24]
 Enzymes are needed for metabolic pathways in the body, respiration, digestion and other important life processes. When enzymes function properly, homeostasis is maintained. However, if an enzyme is lacking or has an incorrect shape due to genetic mutation, this can lead to disease within an organism.
