Answer:
During photosynthesis, plants absorb carbon dioxide and sunlight to create fuel—glucose and other sugars—for building plant structures. This process forms the foundation of the fast (biological) carbon cycle.
The Slow Carbon Cycle. ... Atmospheric carbon combines with water to form a weak acid—carbonic acid—that falls to the surface in rain. The acid dissolves rocks—a process called chemical weathering—and releases calcium, magnesium, potassium, or sodium ions.
Answer:
MgCl2 > C4H9OH > CH4 > C3H8.
Explanation:
Alkanes do not form hydrogen bonds and are insoluble in polar solvents e.g water. The hydrogen bonds between water molecules are move away from an alkane molecule and this worsens as their Carbon chain / molecular weight increases.
MgCl2 is soluble in water. Water essentially breaks down the ionic crystal lattice and the resulting solution is slightly basic.
Alcohols are generally soluble in water and this is because of the -OH group and its ability to form hydrogen bonds with water molecules. As applied to alkanes, as the carbon chain in the alkyl group increases, the solubility decreases.
From the most soluble to the least soluble,
MgCl2 > C4H9OH > CH4 > C3H8.
Answer:
Atoms with one or two valence electrons more than a closed shell are highly reactive ... Hydrogen can form bonds to many other elements such as nitrogen NH 3 ... the electron dot structure and iii the chemical K 1 valence electron 1 dot K . B two. ... The alkaline earth metals IIA elements lose two electrons to form a 2 cation.
Explanation:
A. Cesium because reactivity of alkali metals increases from the top to the bottom of the group.
