<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
pOH = 3.08
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
NX3 + H2O <----> NHX3+ + OH-
Kb = 4.0 x 10^-6
Kb = c(NH₄⁺) · c(OH⁻) ÷ c(NH₃).
c(NH₄⁺) = c(OH⁻) = x.
x² = Kb · c(NH₃)
x² = 4.0 × 10⁻⁶ × 0.175 = 7.0 × 10⁻⁷.
x = c(OH⁻) = √(7.0 × 10⁻⁷)
= 8.367 × 10⁻⁴
pOH = -log(c(OH⁻))
=- log ( 8.367 × 10⁻⁴)
<u>= 3.08</u>
They are positively or negatively charged based on their electrical configuration of electrons*
For example an electronic configuration of 2,8,3 would have a negative charge if +3 since it needs to lose 3 electrons to gain the electrical configuration of a noble gas
2,8,1 would have a charge of +1 for the same reason
2,8,6 would be -2 since it is easier to gain 2 electrons that lose 6 electrons
Hope this helped :))
Answer:
Explanation:
For the growth and flourishing of animals Aromatic amino acids are very important, but because of lack of shikimate these amino acids are not synthesized in animals pathway.But this pathway is found in both plants and micro organisms and they have the ability to produce these amino acids as well as some secondary metabolites required in animals.
There are different role played by this pathway in organisms such as;
1) It serve as a source of Tryptophan and phenylalanie which are important aromatic amino acid.
2)Neuroactive substances such as serotonin,epinephrine are biosynthesized as result of the product from the pathway.
3)Alkaloids that's found in plants as well as antibiotics possessed by microbes, which are essential therapeutical in animals are secondary metabolites that is biosynthesized as a result of the activities of this product of this pathway.
4)Shikimate is useful in the synthesizing of 6-Fluoroshikimic acid.
5) The shikimate pathway is important for the synthesis of a plethora of aromatic compounds in both plants and bacteria as well as fungi.
Answer:
Answer: (b) F
Explanation:
Sodium has 1, magnesium has 2 and Aluminium has 3 electrons in its outermost shell whereas Fluorine has 7 electrons in its outermost shell hence Fluorine does not lose electrons easily.
The electronic configuration of fluorine is 2,7.
Fluorine is the ninth element with a total of 9 electrons.
The first two electrons will go in the 1s orbital.
The next 2 electrons for F go in the 2s orbital.
The remaining five electrons will go in the 2p orbital. Therefore the F electron configuration will be 1s22s22p5.
Answer: Eutrophication is the enhancement of the growth of algae in the water body.
Explanation:
The scientists are worried for the climate change as if the climate changed to prolonged rainy then the frequent raining can remove toxic chemicals from the agricultural sites, landfills, industries, and from other locations and deposit them to the water body (river, lakes, ponds, and others). The deposition of the salts of nitrogen, phosphorus, and sulfur promotes the growth of algae in the water body. This leads to reduction in the concentration of oxygen in the water body. This is called eutrophication. The lack of oxygen can lead to mortality of aquatic animals.
