Chemistry
1 answer:
Soloha48 [4]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Valence shell is the shell present on the outermost core of an atom and electrons present in the valence shell are known as valence electrons.

If an atom has completely filled valence shell then it means the atom is not reactive in nature because it is already stable.

But when an atom has less than eight electrons in its valence shell then it means to attain stability the atom will readily attract electrons towards itself.

As the given element 1 has 8 electrons in its valence shell. Hence, it is not reactive in nature but element 2 has 6 valence electrons. So, in order to attain stability element 2 will readily attract 2 electrons from a donor atom.

Thus, we can conclude that element 2 is more reactive because it does not have a full valence shell, so it will attract electrons.

A refracting telescope uses convex lenses to gather a large amount of light and focus it onto a small area while a reflecting telescope the mirror instead of an objective lens they are also similar because like the lenses in a refracting telescope the mirror in a reflecting telescope focuses a large amount of light onto a small area.

Examine the equation.
Alisiya [41]

Explanation:

The reaction expression is given as;

                 2H₂_{g}   +  O₂_{g}   →   2H₂O_{l}

From the balance reaction expression:

 2 mole of hydrogen gas combines with 1 mole of oxygen gas on the reactant side;

This produces 2 mole of water on the product side of the expression.

The product is in liquid form.

 This reaction is a synthesis reaction because a single product is formed from two reactants.

How is freeze dried ice cream made
ollegr [7]
Freeze drying<span> (or lyophilization) removes water from the ice cream by lowering the </span>air pressure<span> to a point where ice sublimates from a </span>solid<span> to a </span>gas<span>. The ice cream is placed in a </span>vacuum chamber<span> and frozen until the water </span>crystallizes<span>. The air pressure is lowered, creating a partial vacuum, forcing air out of the chamber; next heat is applied, </span>sublimating<span> the ice; finally a freezing coil traps the vaporized water. This process continues for hours, resulting in a freeze-dried ice cream slice. </span>

Which structures join with the cell’s membrane during exocytosis?
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:Exocytosis is also used to integrate new proteins into the cell membrane. In this process, the new protein is formed inside the cell, and migrates to phospholipid bilayer of the vesicle. The vesicle, containing the new protein as a part of the phospholipid bilayer, fuses with the cell membrane.
