Answer:

cadaverine

Explanation:

Cadaverine is a chemical compound with the IUPAC name of pentane-1,5-diamine. It is a chemical compound that emits a foul odour when decomposers like bacteria act on dead animal tissues.

Cadaverine is a product of protein hydrolysis by bacteria in dead tissues, specifically when amino acid LYSINE is decarboxylated. Hence, cadaverine is the compound responsible for the terrible smell produced when a dead animal is being decomposed.

What is the balanced NET ionic equation for the reaction when aqueous Cs₃PO₄ and aqueous AgNO₃ are mixed in solution to form sol
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

PO_4^{3-}(aq)+3Ag^+(aq)\rightarrow Ag_3PO_4(s)

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the net ionic equation of a chemical reaction shows up the ionic species that result from the simplification of the spectator ions, which are those at both reactants and products sides, we take into account that aqueous species ionize into ions whereas liquid, solid and gas species remain unionized. In such a way, for the reaction of cesium phosphate and silver nitrate we can write the complete molecular equation:

Cs_3PO_4(aq)+3AgNO_3(aq)\rightarrow Ag_3PO_4(s)+3CsNO_3(aq)

Whereas the three aqueous salts are ionized in order to write the following complete ionic equation:

3Cs^+(aq)+PO_4^{3-}(aq)+3Ag^+(aq)+3NO_3^-(aq)\rightarrow Ag_3PO_4(s)+3Cs^+(aq)+3NO_3^-(aq)

In such a way, since the cesium and nitrate ions are the spectator ions because of the aforementioned, the net ionic equation turns out:

PO_4^{3-}(aq)+3Ag^+(aq)\rightarrow Ag_3PO_4(s)

Best regards!

A and B are experiencing winter. The picture which isn't available here in this question is attached below.

Option C.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

The earth is tilt by an angle of 23.2° to the vertical plane. This makes the seasonal variation of earth, because in some time of the year, the northern hemisphere faces the sun directly, experiencing summer and then southern hemisphere is away from summer experiencing winter and vice versa. The summer occurs when the place directly faces the sun. And the winter happens when the place obliquely faces the sun or doesn't face the sun at all.

Here in this diagram, we can see that the points A and B are the north pole and the part in northern hemisphere respectively which aren't facing the sun directly, whereas C and D are facing the sun. Thus the southern hemisphere is experiencing summer and the northern hemisphere the winter.
