Answer:

It is very important to known about the chemical reactions that takes place around us.

There are various types of chemical reactions taking place in our every day life. The burning of match stick, rusting of iron are chemical reactions that takes place in the body of organisms.

The compounds react together to form essential products which is formed. The matter that is formed in nature is combination if elements. Water and carbon dioxide form carbohydrates.

This is an example of combination of elements. There are many more examples which are seen in day to day life.

Scientist believe that about 25 of the known elements are essential to life. Just four of these - Carbon (C), Oxygen (O), Hydrogen (H), and Nitrogen (N), - make up about 96% of the human body.


These four elements are found in the basic structure of all biochemical molecules. For example, Glucose is a carbohydrate and it's molecular formula is C6H12O6 - each molecule of glucose is made up of 6 Carbon atoms, 12 Hydrogen atoms and 6 oxygen atoms.


The other elements found can be divided into two main groups - major elements and trace elements.


The human body functions as a result of a large number of the chemical reactions involving compounds of a of these elements.

1. The pressure and temperature of a gas are held constant. Which of the following is true for the volume of the gas?
katovenus [111]
<h3>1.</h3>

C) The volume of the gas is proportional to the number of moles of gas particles.

The Avogadro's law applies to ideal gases with constant pressure and temperature. By that law, the volume of an ideal gas is proportional to the number of moles of particles in that gas.

<h3>2.</h3>

B) The gas now occupies less volume, and the piston will move downward.

Boyle's Law applies to ideal gases with a constant temperature. The volume of an ideal gas is inversely related to its pressure. A high pressure drives gas particles together, such that they occupy less volume. The gas trapped inside the piston has a smaller volume. As a result, the the piston will move downward.

Alternatively, consider the forces acting on the piston. Both the atmosphere and gravity are dragging the piston down. In order for it to stay in place, the gas below it must exert a pressure to balance the two forces. Now the pressure from outside has increased. The gas inside needs to increase its pressure. It needs a smaller volume to create that extra pressure. As a result, its volume will decrease, and the piston will move downwards.
