This question is asking for an element with 5 valence electrons.  Just go to the row it is in (excluding transition metals) and count over.  
The answer would be c. P

Answers:

1. B.)

2. Both A.) and B.)

3. A.)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Ions in gas phase

A plasma is a gas consisting of electrons and positively charged ions.

Because the particles are ions and electrons, rather than neutral atoms or molecules as in ordinary gases, scientists consider a plasma to be a fourth state of matter<em>.</em>

2. Kinetic Molecular Theory

Both activities illustrate the postulate.

A.) If the particles are extremely small and far apart, most of the volume of a gas is empty space. That's why it's easy to push the plunger of a capped nozzle syringe containing a gas.

B.) If the particles are far apart, it's easy for a coloured gas to spread into an inverted jar placed on top of a jar containing the gas.

3. Hot air balloon

The high temperature in the balloon makes the gas molecules spread apart according to Charles's law, because this law describes how a gas will behave at constant pressure.

As the hot air escapes from the vent, the combined mass of balloon + hot air becomes less than the mass of cold air that it displaces, and the balloon rises.

B.) is <em>wrong</em>. Boyle's law applies only when both the number of moles and  the temperature remain constant.

The catabolic process of converting carbohydrates to CO2 requires ________ of carbon. The catabolic process of converting carboh
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

The catabolic process of converting carbohydrates to CO2 requires<u> oxidation</u> of carbon.

Explanation:

There are multiple definitions of reduction-oxidation. There is one that explains it with respect to oxygen, the other with respect to hydrogen and another with respect to electrons. The relevant one here is the one that explains it in terms of hydrogen. Oxidation is the removal of hydrogen while reduction is the addition of hydrogen. During repiration, the carbon loses the hydrogens attached to it and is therefore oxidized. These hydrogens attach themselves to oxygen which means oxygen is reduced.
