Answer:

To create positive and negative ends to attract and hence combine with each other.

Explanation:

Two molecules combine usually by some sort of attraction between them.

When one molecule loses OH- ion,  it becomes positively charges while the other molecule loses H+ ion and becomes negatively charged.

Now two molecules , one electro positive and other electro negative attracts each other and combine by forming hydrogen bonds.

Like wise the H+ and OH- released, also combines to form water.

The loss of the hydrogen on one molecule produces a negative charge, which is attracted to the positive charge formed by the loss of the hydroxy group from the other molecule.

Answer: Hey again!

Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Elemental form of carbon means the pure form of carbon, that is, carbon is present in its natural form.

An elemental form also means that the pure atoms are not attached to any other atom.

For example, diamond is an allotrope of carbon in which there are only carbon atoms attached to each other and no other atom is present in it.

Whereas methane has carbon and hydrogen atoms attached to each other therefore, it is not an elemental carbon. And proteins include different atoms attached to each other.

Thus, we can conclude that diamond is an example of elemental carbon.

What this student thought was happening is called spontaneous generation. Spontaneous generation is a body of thought on the ordinary formation of living organisms without descent from similar organisms

HOWEVER, the student was wrong because it is impossible for organisms to be spawned out of nothing. The organisms appeared due to bacteria on the meat and in the air.
