Answer:

c. Many of their bonds are C-C and C-H

Explanation:

The majority of bonds in carbohydrates and lipids( being an organic compound) are C-C and C-H. Like glucose, fructose or galactose ,etc.

These bonds are strong and do require a lot of energy to break. Thus, a lot of energy are required to break carbs and lipids into simpler compounds.Therefore, carbohydrates and lipids have high potential energy.

The correct answer is c.

How many mm are equal to 21 L. How many mg are equal to 9 g. How many grams are equal to 400 kg

liberstina [14]

How many mm are equal to 21 L?

1 L = 1000000 mm

Convert:-

1000000 × 21 = 21000000

21 l = 21000000 mm

How many mg are equal to 9 g?

1 g = 1000 mg

Convert:-

9 × 1000 = 9000

9 g = 9000 mg

When metallic aluminum is added to a solution containing iron(II) sulfate a reaction occurs. What species is being oxidized in t

REY [17]

Answer: Aluminium is getting oxidized in the given chemical reaction.

Explanation:

Oxidation reaction is defined as the chemical reaction in which an atom looses its electrons. The oxidation number of the atom gets increased during this reaction.

$X\rightarrow X^{n+}+ne^-$

Reduction reaction is defined as the chemical reaction in which an atom gains electrons. The oxidation number of the atom gets reduced during this reaction.

$X^{n+}+ne^-\rightarrow X$

For the given chemical reaction:

$2Al(s)+3FeSO_4(aq.)\rightarrow Al_2(SO_4)_3(aq.)+3Fe(s)$

The half cell reactions for the above reaction follows:

Oxidation half reaction: $Al\rightarrow Al^{3+}+3e^-$

Reduction half reaction: $Fe^{2+}+2e^-\rightarrow Fe$

As, aluminium is loosing 3 electrons to form aluminium cation. Thus, it is getting oxidized. Iron is gaining 2 electrons to form iron anion. Thus, it is getting reduced.

Hence, the oxidized species of the given reaction is aluminium.

How many electrons will a neon (Ne) atom have when it has no charge?

Darya [45]

Answer:

hope it helps you

Explanation:

Once one shell is full, the next electron that is added has to move to the next shell. So... for the element of NEON, you already know that the atomic number tells you the number of electrons. That means there are 10 electrons in a neon atom.
