Which path will a carbon atom most likely travel from CO2 in the atmosphere to glucose in the cell of a secondary consumer

Chemistry
1 answer:
SVETLANKA909090 [29]4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

<em>The carbon will have to travel in the form of CO2 from the atmosphere to a primary producer (green plant), from there to a primary consumer (herbivorous animal), and finally to a secondary consumer.</em>

The primary producer (a green plant) would fix the carbon in the CO2 to carbohydrate through a process known as photosynthesis. The equation of the process is as shown below:

6 CO_2 + 6 H_2O --> C_6H_1_2O_6 + 6 O_2

The carbon, now in the form of carbohydrate, would then be picked up by an animal (a primary consumer) that feeds on the green plant. The carbon would eventually get into a secondary consumer when the secondary consumer feeds on the primary consumer that fed on the green plant.

___________ minerals are dark-colored because they contain _____________. a. Mafic; iron and/or magnesium b. Felsic; iron and/or
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

A. Mafic; iron and/or magnesium

Explanation:

Let's find the answer by naming some minerals and their chemistry.

Mafic minerals are dark-colored whereas felsic minerals are light-colored, thats way mafic rocks are dark-colored because they are mainly composed by mafic minerals and the other way around for felsic rocks.

But remember that mafic minerals as amphiboles, pyroxenes or biotites, involve in their chemical structure iron and/or magnesium. Although calcium and sodium can be incorporated in amphiboles and clinopyroxenes, they are not involved in orthopyroxenes and biotites. On the other hand, although potassium is involved in biotite and in some extent in amphiboles, this element is not involved in pyroxenes.

So in conclusion, mafic minerals are usually dark-colored because they involve iron and/or magnesium in their chemical structures.

A compound is formed when 171.2g of carbon reacts with 28.8 g of hydrogen what is the mass percent of hydrogen in the compound
PolarNik [594]
Hi.

You can calculate mass percent by dividing the mass by the total mass of the compound & multiplying by 100.

28.8 ÷ (171.2 + 28.8) = 0.144

0.144 · 100 = 14.4

I believe the mass percent of the hydrogen in the compound is 14.4%
