Answer: caffeine is a compound.
Explanation:
1) As stated c<span>affeine contains hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen atoms in a fixed ratio.
2) The definition of compound is a pure substance formed by chemical bonding of two or more fifferent elements. That means a defined ratio of the elements in the compound, which conferes uniform and equal properties to every part of the compound.
Some examples of compounds are salt (NaCl), water (H2O), vinegard (CH3 COOH).
A mixture combines several elements or compounds, not bonded by chemical bonds but mixed in ratios which may vary.

Hey there!
Solid Sodium and water will react spontaneously and release energy. This is based on the reactivity series. Sodium is a highly reactive metal and hence, it is placed at the top of the reactivity series. This is because it loses its outermost electron very readily. When it comes in contact with water, it reacts with it violently to form sodium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. This reaction is exothermic and hence, accompanied with a release of energy. Gold lies at the bottom of the reactivity series as it is very stable and does not give away its outermost electrons easily. Therefore, when it comes in contact with water, there is no reaction and no release of energy.
Answer:
amino group
Explanation:
There are twenty (20) amino acids in nature. Generally, each amino acid is structurally made up of a central carbon atom called alpha carbon attached to a hydrogen, carboxylic acid group (-COOH) and an amine group (-NH2). However, one particular amino acid called PROLINE posseses an exception to this.
Proline, which is the only cyclic amino acid, is also the only amino acid that forms a secondary amine group i.e. loss of hydrogen atoms in its amine group when in a protein structure. This means that when in a protein, PROLINE does not have an AMINE GROUP.
Shielding effect being attendency of the inner electrons to repel the outermost electrons, an increase in shielding effect increases atomic radius and decrease reduces the atomic radius
