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 correct answer here is A, because glucose is a type of carbohydrate’s monomer

The red arrow is pointed at different locations of an atom of Helium. Where is it pointing to the GREATEST concentration of atom

Mama L [17]

Answer:

A is the correct answer.

Explanation:

An atom consist of electron, protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are present with in nucleus while the electrons are present out side the nucleus.

All these three subatomic particles construct an atom. A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other. For example if neutral atom has 6 protons than it must have 6 electrons. The sum of neutrons and protons is the mass number of an atom while the number of protons are number of electrons is the atomic number of an atom.

For example in case of Helium:

The 1st one diagram shows that arrow is pointing with in nucleus. The helium nucleus contain two protons and two neutrons. Thus maximum mass is present with in nucleus. while two electrons are revolve around the nucleus and mass of electron is negligible.

Answer:

C) How much energy was added to the substance to increase molecule motion?

Explanation:

The most relevant question to ask regarding this change must take into account the physical knowledge about matter.

When matter changes from liquid state to gaseous state, a physical change called evaporation, the particles (molecules or atoms) of the pure substance will separate from each other, take up more space and move faster.

Condensation is the opposite to evaporation, thus the option A) is not the most relevant question.

The charge of the particles does not change; so the option B) is not relevant at all.

The particles should gain energy from the surroundings to increase their motion (kinetic energy) when they pass from liquid state, where they move slower, to gas state, where they move faster. Hence, the option C), How much energy was added to the substance to increase molecule motion? , is totally relevant.

Since this is an increase in the kinetic energy of the molecules, the option D) is not relevant.
