Answer:

Amino Acids

Explanation:

What Are Proteins Made Of? The building blocks of proteins are amino acids, which are small organic molecules that consist of an alpha (central) carbon atom linked to an amino group, a carboxyl group, a hydrogen atom, and a variable component called a side chain.

In an experiment to determine if the height of a cake is determined by the temperature at which is cooked, measuring the height
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

  • <u>Dependent variable</u>

Explanation:

In a controlled <em>experiment </em>there will be one independent variable, one dependent variable, and some controlled or constant parameters.

The target of the expermiment is to tes how the dependent variable changes with the independent variable.

So, the scientist will change (manipulate) the independent variable and measure the dependent vabiales.

Here, the temperature will be manipulated (within a range), so this is the independent variable; the height of the cake is the variable whose behavior wants to be determined, so this is the dependent variable. Controlled variables or constants may include the mixture, the size of the pan, the time of cooking, the oven, among others.

Complete and balance the following redox reaction in basic solution
inn [45]

Answer:

balanced in ACID not BASE

Cr2O7^2-(aq) +3Hg(l) +14 H^1+ ----> 3Hg^2+ + 2Cr^3+(aq) + 7H2O

Answer

Cr2O7^2-(aq) +3Hg(l) +14 H^1+ ----> 3Hg^2+ + 2Cr^3+(aq) + 7H2O

Explanation:

Cr2O7^2-(aq) + Hg(l) ----> Hg^2+(aqH) + Cr^3+(aq)

add H^1+ (acid) to capture the O and make 7 water molecules

Cr2O7^2-(aq) + Hg(l) + H^1+ ----> Hg^2+(aqH) + Cr^3+(aq) + 7H2O

Cr goes from +6 to +3 by gaining 3 e

Hg goes from 0 to +2 by losing 2 e

we need 3 Hg for every 2 Cr

so

Cr2O7^2-(aq) +3Hg(l) +14 H^1+ ----> 3Hg^2+ + 2Cr^3+(aq) + 7H2O

2 Cr on the right and left

Net 12 positive charges on the right and the left

3 Hg on the right and left

14 H on the right and left

the equation is balanced

we cannot balance the equation in a basic solution with OH^1-

we have plenty of O in the dichromate ion. we need to convert it to water which take free H^1+ from the acid
