marysya [2.9K]

Answer: B(water)

Explanation:

Photosystem II uses energy from light to extract electron from water molecule to fill the hole left as the energized electron passes up the chain.When the electrons are removed from the water molecules,the water molecule breaks down into oxygen gas,which bubbles away, and hydrogen ions,which are used to power ATP synthesis.

Water is produced from the reaction of hydrogen and oxygen gas, according to the equation below. What is the excess reactant in
liq [111]

Explanation:

Mole ratio of Oxygen to Hydrogen gas = 1 : 2.

If we use 3.0 moles of oxygen gas, we would need 3.0 * 2 = 6.0 mol of hydrogen gas.

However we only have 4.2 mol of hydrogen. Therefore hydrogen is limiting and oxygen is in excess. (B)

If we supply additional heat to a solid in equilibrium with its liquid at the melting point, the thermal energy added is used to
trapecia [35]

Answer:

c. change solid to liquid.

Explanation: Heat is an energy which is present in a substance which is obtained through the transfer of temperature from a substance or material of high temperature to a substance or material of lower temperature. Heat is measured in JOULES OR KILOJOULES,

When heat is applied to a solid material it tends to cause the atomic particles of the solid to have a high kinetic energy making them to loose attachment to each other,when this particles starts to get detached their is the chance of a CHANGE OF STATE WHICH CAN BE FROM SOLID TO LIQUID OR FROM LIQUID TO GAS.

When chlorine and magnesium react chemically, how many chlorine atoms will combine with one magnesium atom?
Lesechka [4]
Magnesium is divalent. This means that one magnesium atom needs to lose 2 electrons in order to become stable.

Chlorine, on the other hand, is monovalent. This means that one chlorine atom needs to gain one electron in order to become stable.

Based on this, one magnesium atom will combine with two chlorine atoms, where the magnesium loses two electrons, one for each chlorine.

The formula of the compound formed is: MgCl2
