Answer:

b., four; four

Explanation:

As an element, carbon is tetravalent, it has 4 outer shell electrons and oxygen has 6 outer shell electrons. The carbon dioxide molecule is formed from one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms by two double covalent bonds. In making CO₂, two electrons of carbon share with each oxygen atoms resulting in 4 bonding electrons in total. Carbon dioxide's strong double bonds make it very stable.

In reaction with water, carbon forms double covalent bond with one of the oxygen of CO₂ and with two single covalent bonds one with other oxygen atoms of CO₂ and one with the oxygen atom of H₂O forming carbonic acid (H₂CO₃). Thus, carbon shares 4 electrons.

Combustion will cause a chemical change in paper.

This is because the carbon compounds are being oxidized into carbon dioxide and water vapour (or h2o, same thing).

7. Explain how excitatory and inhibitory actions of neurotransmitters are different.
Sauron [17]

In contrast to an inhibitory transmitter, an excitatory transmitter encourages the development of an electrical signal known as an action potential in the receiving neuron.

Depolarization is brought on by excitatory neurotransmitters (decrease in membrane potential). Hyperpolarization is brought on by inhibitory neurotransmitters (increase in membrane potential).

Neurotransmitters fall into two categories: excitatory and inhibitory. While inhibitory neurotransmitters work to stop an action potential, excitatory neurotransmitters function to activate receptors on the postsynaptic membrane and enhance the effects of the action potential.

While inhibitory neurons release neurotransmitters that prevent action potential firing, excitatory neurons release neurotransmitters that cause an action potential to occur in the postsynaptic neuron.

Let's know more about Excitatory & Inhibitory

16. Explain why antifreeze is used in vehicle radiators. Use your knowledge of the properties of
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

Antifreeze is whats used to keep your engine cool without freezing.

Explanation:

it keeps the engine from overheating.

It also prevents corrosion.

Here is a quote from google "Antifreeze works because the freezing and boiling points of liquids are “colligative” properties. This means they depend on the concentrations of “solutes,” or dissolved substances, in the solution. A pure solution freezes because the lower temperatures cause the molecules to slow down"

That quote is from "The Science Behind Antifreeze"
