<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is chemical reactivity of metals increases.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Chemical reactivity is defined as the tendency of an element to loose of gain electrons.

Metals are the elements which looses electrons and hence, their chemical reactivity will be the tendency to loose electrons. Their chemical reactivity increases as we move from top to bottom in a group. This is so because, the electron get added up in the new shell. So, the electron in the outermost orbital gets far away from the nucleus. And hence, this will be lost easily. Thus, the chemical reactivity gets increases.

Non-metals are the elements which gains electrons and hence, their chemical reactivity will be the tendency to loose electrons. Their chemical reactivity decreases as we move from top to bottom in a group. As, the electrons get added up in the new shell. So, the the electron in the outermost orbital gets far away from the nucleus. And hence, the electron will be difficult to gain. Thus, the chemical reactivity of non-metals decreases.

Hence, the correct answer is chemical reactivity of metals increases.

A deficiency in B6 (pyridoxal phosphate) would negatively impact which of the following pathways: 1. Metabolism of homocysteine
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

The correct answer is 1.

Explanation:

The metabolism of homocysteine produces a sulfur amino acid that is normally formed from methionine during the fulfillment of its function as a donor of methyl groups. Metabolic fate such as remethylation and transsulfuration, involving the enzymatic forms of the vitamins folacin, B12, and B6, gives rise to homocysteine and mixed disulfides including so-called protein-linked homocysteine, the main form circulating in plasma. B6 deficiency would have a direct impact on the metabolism of homocysteine to cysteine.

How many half-lives would something have gone through if you had 75% daughter product and 25% parent?
levacccp [35]

Answer:

Two Half-lives

Explanation:

Let number of Parent nuclei Initially present be X,

Then, finally \frac{X}{4} Parent nuclei Will remain with \frac{3X}{4} daughter nuclei.

In one half- life , parent nuclei becomes half of initial.

So, starting with X parent nuclei,

After one half-life, it will degrade to \frac{X}{2} .

After another half life , Parent nuclei will become half of \frac{X}{2}

Which is equal to \frac{X}{4}.

So, Parent nuclei have to go through Two half-lives.

What is the molarity of a solution that contains 200. 0 g of lithium chloride in 450 mL? molar mass of chloride= 42. 394g/mol
alisha [4.7K]

Explanation:

Sol. 450 ml there is LiCl 200 g

Sol. 1000 ml there is LiCl 200/450×1000

= 444.44 g

Molar = g/molar mass = 444.44/42.394 = 10.48 M

What is the iupac name for this compound ch3-c(ch3) 2-ch2-chcl-ch3? ​
myrzilka [38]

The IUPAC name of the above mentioned compound is "2-Chloro-4,4-dimethylpentane"

<u>Exaplanation:</u>

  • Since the above organic compound is an compound with only one saturated bond, It can be considered as a single bond compound, and hence we can conclude that as alkane.
  • It also has 5 carbon atoms, so it is termed as pentane.
  • From right to left we have to number the atoms, and 2 nd carbon atom contain Cl atom so it is termed as 2-Chloro and in the 4th position carbon atom contains 2 methyl groups, so it is termed as, 2-Chloro-4,4-dimethylpentane.

What is the value of freezing point depression of a solution of 15.0g of NaCl in 250g of water?
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

-3.82ºC is the freezing point of solution

Explanation:

We work with the Freezing point depression to solve the problem

ΔT = m . Kf . i

ΔT = Freezing point of pure solvent - freezing point of solution

Let's find out m, molality (moles of solute in 1kg of solvent)

15 g / 58.45 g/mol = 0.257 moles of NaCl

NaCl(s) → Na⁺ (aq) + Cl⁻(aq)

i = 2 (Van't Hoff factor, numbers of ions dissolved)

m = mol /kg → 0.257 mol / 0.250kg = 1.03 m

Kf = Cryoscopic constant → 1.86 ºC/m (pure, for water)

0ºC - Tºf = 1.03m . 1.86ºC/m . 2

Tºf  = -3.82ºC
