Answer:

A) C_{6}H_{12}O_{6}

Explanation:

A monomer is essentially a small molecule which combines with another molecule of the same kind to form a macromolecule. When two or more number of monomer units react together they form a polymer through a process known as polymerization.

Carbohydrates are polymers made of monomers units which are simple sugars. The chemical formula C_{6}H_{12}O_{6} corresponds to that of glucose. Starch which is a carbohydrate is formed by the polymerization of glucose.

The table shows the number of reactants and products present during two separate chemical reactions.
finlep [7]

Answer:

Chemical reaction B, because the product is a compound

Explanation:

A synthesis or combination reaction is that reaction that involves combination of two or more reactants to form a single product. The two or more reactants are often elements that chemically combine to form a single compound.

In this question, two chemical reactions are involved in which chemical reaction A has 1 reactants and 3 products while chemical reaction B has 2 reactants and 1 product. Based on the explanation above, the reaction B correctly identifies the synthesis reaction because the single product is a compound.

explain using diagrams how potassium forms the compound potassium flouride when it reacts with flourine
Katarina [22]

Answer:

The answer to your question is given below.

Explanation:

Potassium (K) has 19 electrons with electronic configuration of 2, 8, 8, 1.

Fluorine (F) has 9 electrons with electronic configuration of 2, 7.

Fluorine needs 1 electron to complete it's octet configuration.

Hence, potassium (K), will lose 1 electron to fluorine (F) to form potassium ion (K+) with electronic configuration of 2, 8, 8. The fluorine atom (F) will receive the 1 electron from potassium to form the fluoride ion (F-) with electronic configuration of 2, 8.

Sheela wants to make a computer model of a land ecosystem. Part of her model simulates the chemical processes of photosynthesis
shusha [124]
<span>The correct answer is A, the ligt-dependent reactions. These reactions are responsible for the production of glucose molecules, by the utilization of carbon dioxide, and water along with the sunlight. Glucose is then broken down during resiration process, for the production of ATP in mitochondria.</span><span />

xz_007 [3.2K]
An ionic compound is a substance that contains atoms that are bonded together through an ionic bond, where electrons are transferred from one atom to another. For the given experiment above, the material that is missing from the list is WATER or solvent. It is necessary because conduction through water will help you identify if a sample compound is ionic through its electrolytes. <span>Ionic compounds that are soluble are typically electrolytes</span>
