<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option C.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Law of conservation of mass states that mass can neither be created nor be destroyed but it can only be transformed from one form to another form. This means that total mass on the reactant side is equal to the total mass on the product side.

This also means that the total number of individual atoms on the reactant side will be equal to the total number of individual atoms on the product side.

For the given chemical reaction, the reactants are: $C_2H_4O_2\text{ and }NaHCO_3$

Number of carbon atoms = 3

Number of hydrogen atoms = 5

Number of sodium atoms = 1

Number of oxygen atoms = 5

These number of individual atoms must be present on the product side as well.

Hence, the correct answer is Option C.

!!Help!!Polysaccharides are healthier for the body than mono- or disaccharides are. What choices could you make to increase your

const2013 [10]

Answer:

We have to consume starch and cellulose in large amount in order to increase the consumption of polysaccharides which make our body healthier.

Explanation:

Starch is polysaccharide which is made up of many glucose molecules. it is mostly made in the body of plants and when we eat that plant this starch is transferred to our body and our body use it when it is needed while cellulose also made of hundred of glucose molecules but our body is unable to digest it because our body is unable to break the bonds between the monosaccharide of cellulose. It is good for humans due to the presence of high amount of fibers.

Which of the following measurements represents the most matter?

netineya [11]

Answer: C) 330 g

Explanation: Since all the masses are given in different units, it's good to make all of them to have same unit. Let's say we convert all of them to grams.

A) kg stands for kilogram and 1 kg = 1000 g

So, $0.033kg(\frac{1000g}{1kg})$

= 33 g

B) hg stands for hactogram and 1 hg = 100 g

So, $0.33hg(\frac{100g}{1hg})$

= 33 g

C) 330 g

D) cg stands for centigram and 1 cg = 0.01 g

So, $3300cg(\frac{0.01g}{1cg})$

= 33 g

Looking at all the choices, choice A, B and D represent equal amount of matter that is 33 g where as choice C represents 330 g of matter.

Hence, the correct choice is C) 330 g.

When atomic orbitals of two nuclei overlap, the mutual attraction between a negatively charged electron pair and the two positiv

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

It is known that when sharing of electrons take place between two combining atoms then the bond formed is known as a covalent bond. In general, a covalent bond is formed between two non-metal atoms.

For example, the compound HCl has a covalent bond between the hydrogen and chlorine atom. As hydrogen atom has 1 valence electron and chlorine atom has 7 valence electrons.

So, in order to attain stability both these atoms will share their valence electrons and hence, a covalent bond is formed.

On the other hand, when an electron is transferred from one atom to another then it tends to form an ionic bond.

For example, the compound NaCl has an ionic bond.

Thus, we can conclude that when atomic orbitals of two nuclei overlap, the mutual attraction between a negatively charged electron pair and the two positively charged nuclei forms a covalent bond.
