Kidneys filter water as Kidneys filter the substance that enters our body using water because water dissolves these substance and send them out of our body. The universal property of water plays a important role in this process as it wash out a great portion even all the substance in our body.

So kidneys filter water and the universal solvent properties plays a important role  in that process.

Which balanced equation represents a redox reaction?
nlexa [21]

Answer: option (3) CuO + CO ⇄ Cu + CO₂


Explanation:


1) A redox reaction is an oxidation-reduction reaction.


2) An oxidation-reduction reaction is one in which at least one species is oxidized and other (or others) is reduced.


3) Oxidation is the increase on the oxidation number, which occurs by releasing electrons.


4) Reduction is the decrease of the oxidation number, which occurs by gaining electrons.


5) By looking at the oxidation numbers of the reactants and the products you can tell whether a reaction is a redox one.


6) There are some rules to calculate the oxidation states which you need to handle to determine the oxidation states of the atoms in any chemical formula.


7) The main rule that you can use at a glance is if an element is alone in one side of the equation and is bonded to other kind of atom in the other side.


That is because the rule states that for any element that is not combined with other element its oxidation state is 0.


In this case, you can apply that rule to the equation of the choice number (3). In that, you can see that Cu is pure which as per the mentioned rule means that its oxidation state is 0.


As Cu is combined with O, CuO, in the reactant side of the chemical equation, then its oxidation number is not 0. Indeed, the rule is that in the formula CuO the oxidation states of Cu and O add up 0, and since the oxidation number of O is 2-, the oxidation number of Cu is 2+.


Therefore, having Cu changed its oxidation state from 2+ to 0, it was reduced, and this is a redox reaction.


Of course other atoms had to be oxidized. It was C whose oxidation state went from 2+ in CO to 4+ in CO₂.

Activity C: Hydrolysis of Carbohydrates As discussed earlier, disaccharides are composed of two monosaccharides linked together.
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

Sucrose: glucose and fructose

Explanation:

<em>What monosaccharides will result from the hydrolysis of sucrose?</em>

<em>Sucrose</em> is a <em>disaccharide</em> composed of 2 different <em>monosaccharides</em>: glucose and fructose joining by a 1 ⇒ 2 bond. These monosaccharides will be released upon the hydrolysis of sucrose.

<em>What monosaccharide will result from the hydrolysis of starch?</em>

<em>Starch</em> is a <em>polysaccharide</em> composed of numerous glucose monomers joined by glycosidic bonds (1 ⇒ 4 and 1 ⇒ 6). These monosaccharides will be released upon the hydrolysis of starch.
