The answer is 3). This is because elements are the simplest form of a substance, and cannot be broken down any further. Compounds on the other hand are much more complex than elements and can be broken down INTO elements. For example, Na, sodium, is an element and cannot be broken down further. H2O, water, is a compound and can be broken down into Hydrogen and Oxygen.

Licemer1 [7]
Amino Acids undergo a kind of acid base reaction within a molecule. The Amino group acts as a base and accepts proton from Carboxylic functional group resulting in formation of Ammonium with positive charge and a negative charge on Carboxylate. Such molecules containing both positive and negative charges are called as Zwittor Ions. Phenylalanine both in Un-ionized and Ionized form is shown below,

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

2, Blank, 2 ;

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

The balanced chemical equation would be;

2 CO + O2 → 2 CO2

Balancing a chemical equation ensures that the number of atoms of each element are equal on both the reactants side and the products side. This ensures that the law of conservation of mass is obeyed in chemical reactions.
