Why do living things need carbon

Chemistry
1 answer:
soldier1979 [14.2K]3 years ago
8 0
Animals use oxygen to convert this food into energy they can use, and to maintain a steady supply of carbon atoms that are necessary for building any animal cells. Respiration also returns carbon dioxide back to the atmosphere as a waste product, where plants can reabsorb it in the process of photosynthesis. hope I helped.

15. transition metals has ____ valence electrons
Gemiola [76]

2 valence electrons

Explanation:

Most transition metals have 2 valence electrons. Valence electrons are the sum total of all the electrons in the highest energy level (principal quantum number n). Most transition metals have an electron configuration that is ns2(n−1)d , so those ns2 electrons are the valence electrons.

What did scientists discover when they arranged elements in order of increasing atomic mass?
asambeis [7]
<span>The scientists discovered that when they organized elements in order of increasing atomic mass there is a pattern of repetition of properties (A). The periodic law was developed by Dmitri Mendeleev and Lothar Mayer in 1869. They worked independently of each other and both created a periodic table. They both arranged the items on the table by weight and both suggested that certain properties of the elements recur. The Mendeleev table is the most important table because the values for the atomic mass are the most accurate.</span>

A 275 g sample of a metal requires 10.75 kJ to change its temperature from 21.2 oC to its melting temperature, 327.5 oC. What is
Vlada [557]

Answer:

c=0.127\ J/g^{\circ} C

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the sample, m = 275 g

It required 10.75 kJ of heat to change its temperature from 21.2 °C to its melting temperature, 327.5 °C.

We need to find the specific heat of the metal. The heat required by a metal sample is given by :

Q=mc\Delta T

c is specific heat of the metal

c=\dfrac{Q}{m\Delta T}\\\\c=\dfrac{10.75\times 10^3\ J}{275\times (327.5 -21.2)}\\\\=0.127\ J/g^{\circ} C

So, the specific heat of metal is 0.127\ J/g^{\circ} C.
