Sulfur has 16 protons and chlorine has 17 protons. Since the placement on the periodic table is equal to the number of protons, and also since it is impossible to have an element with a non-whole number of protons, there can be no element between sulfur and chlorine.

The carbon cycle is closely linked to which process?
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

Photosynthesis

Explanation:

Carbon cycle involves the exchange of components between the hydrosphere, biosphere and atmosphere. During carbon cycle, materials such as gases, minerals which are necessary for life are interchange. For example, animals pass out faeces on the soil which is rich in urea. Urea decomposes to provide nitrogen into the soil through bioactive bacterials. The nitrogen is used up by plants to grow. During photosynthesis, plants uses carbon dioxide and water to produce glucose and release oxygen for animals to use. It's like a purification system where one waste product from one organism is used by the other to survive.

Equation of photosynthesis

6CO₂ + 6H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂.
