Answer:
The explanation of the processes in which pigments are involved (capturing light and forming ATP and NADPH) is given in the following paragraphs)
Explanation:
Pigments are molecules with the capacity of absorbing light. Each pigment captures light of a specific wavelength. Plants contain different types of pigments like chlorophylls, xanthophylls, carotenoids, and others.
Chloroplasts (organelles present in cells of plants), contain pigmants that absorb solar radiation, triggering a series of reactions collectively known as photosynthesis. When light incides on a pigment, an electron of this molecules is excitated, goes into another level of energy and starts to pass through a series of carrier molecules to finally to a final aceptor of electrons. During this transport, part of the energy contained in the electron is used to generates a hydrogen gradient that provides energy. As a result of these processes, a molecule that is called NADP+ accepts two electrons and an hydrogen to form NADPH, while another molecule known as ADP captures an atom of phosphorous and gives rise to ATP (through the action of a protein called ATP sintase)..
Answer:
N₂ = 0.7515atm
O₂ = 0.1715atm
NO = 0.0770atm
Explanation:
For the reaction:
N₂(g) + O₂(g) ⇄ 2NO(g)
Where Kp is defined as:
Pressures in equilibrium are:
N₂ = 0.790atm - X
O₂ = 0.210atm - X
NO = 2X
Replacing in Kp:
0.0460 = [2X]² / [0.790atm - X] [0.210atm - X]
0.0460 = 4X² / 0.1659 - X + X²
0.0460X² - 0.0460X + 7.6314x10⁻³ = 4X²
-3.954X² - 0.0460X + 7.6314x10⁻³ = 0
Solving for X:
X = - 0.050 → False answer. There is no negative concentrations.
X = <em>0.0385 atm</em> → Right answer.
Replacing for pressures in equilibrium:
N₂ = 0.790atm - X = <em>0.7515atm</em>
O₂ = 0.210atm - X = <em>0.1715atm</em>
NO = 2X = <em>0.0770atm</em>
The correct answer is C. Compounds have different properties than their component elements. When compounds are formed, they undergo change resulting to changes in the properties they exhibit. It will have its new set of properties different from the elements.
