You should never touch the subscripts, as that will change the composition. Hope I helped!

<u>Answer:</u>

The correct answer option is: the number in subscript.

<u>Explanation:</u>

When you are balancing any chemical equation, you must never touch or change the number in subscript of the molecule of a chemical or compound.

The number in subscript of any molecule or compound shows the ratio of atoms that makes up that certain molecule or compound.

You can only change or alter the number written left to the molecule of compound to balance the equation.

malfutka [58]

Answer:

In chemical bonding: Arrangement of the elements. The horizontal rows of the periodic table are called periods.

How does your body obtain energy from the carbohydrates you eat?
Komok [63]

Our bodies digest the food we eat by mixing it with fluids (acids and enzymes) in the stomach. When the stomach digests food, the carbohydrate (sugars and starches) in the food breaks down into another type of sugar, called glucose.

Select all that apply. Catalysts can save money by essentially lowering the:
k0ka [10]

Answer: Options (a) and (d) are the correct answer.

Explanation:

A catalyst is the substance which helps in increasing the rate of reaction.

Activation energy is the minimum amount of energy required by reactants to start the reaction. On addition of catalyst, the path of reaction changes because the energy barrier gap reduces and hence, the activation energy also decreases.

In the absence of catalyst, we need to increase the temperature so that reaction can occur quickly.

Whereas on addition of catalyst, there is no need to increase the temperature as the catalyst itself is sufficient to increase the rate of reaction. As a result, temperature should be lowered when there is addition of catalyst in the reaction.

Thus, we can conclude that catalysts can save money by essentially lowering the activation energy and temperature required.

If cells did not work together what would happen to the organisms
arlik [135]

Surely, If cells did not work together in an organism, there won't be formation of new cells and life process would stop

<h3>Living organisms </h3>

Living organisms; be it plants or animals are any organic or living system composed of cells and function as an individual entity.

  • All living organisms share a number of key characteristics or functions such as movement, respiration, homeostasis, reproduction, growth, evolution, competition and others.

  • Animals and plants also posess systems such as the digestive, skeletal, transport, nervous, excretory, respiratory and reproductive system.

  • Living organisms are also taxonomically classified as either unicellular microorganisms or multicellular plants and animals

So therefore, surely, If cells did not work together in an organism, there won't be formation of new cells and life process would stop
