Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is a process in which sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water is used by the plants to make their on food.  

Plants absorb energy in the form of heat from the sunlight and thus produce glucose and oxygen from carbon dioxide and water. This absorbed energy is then used to start various chemical and biochemical reactions in the plants.

Hence, photosynthesis is an endothermic reaction.

Thus, we can conclude that a large amount of energy is required to activate the reaction.

Which of the following represents radiant energy being converted to chemical energy?
Arte-miy333 [17]
ANSWER

The correct answer is A

EXPLANATION

Plants manufacture their on food by the process of photosynthesis. During this process, plants trap radiant energy from the sun by the help of chlorophyll in the leaves.

Radiant energy with other raw materials such as water, carbon dioxide and mineral salts is converted to food (in the form of starch) which contains chemical energy.

Match the prefixes. 1. 1 hex- 2. 2 eth- 3. 3 prop- 4. 4 hept- 5. 5 non- 6. 6 dec- 7. 7 pent- 8. 8 but- 9. 9 meth- 10. 10 oct-

Hi!

All these prefixes are commonly employed in the nomenclature in organic chemistry. These are associated with organic compounds, such as alkanes, alkenes, alcohols and carboxylic acids -and these prefixes are known as word root.

<h3>The answers would be:</h3><h3>a) 1 - meth</h3>

Meth is associated with the number one, in that it signifies the presence of one carbon in the compound in concern. For instance, a one carbon alkane would be known as methane -with <em>ane </em>being indicative of the compound being an alkane, and meth denoting the presence of one carbon

<h3>b) 2 - eth</h3>

Eth is the associated prefix with the number 2 as it denotes the presence of 2 carbon atoms in the compound. For instance, the compound ethene gets it name for having 2 carbon atoms (denoted by eth). The eth acts as a prefix to the characteristic <em>ene</em> of alkenes.

<h3>c) 3 - prop</h3>

Prop is the prefix that signifies the presence of 3 carbons in the compound in concern. For instance, propanol is a three carbon alcohol, which we can tell by the name. Prop indicating three carbons in the compound, and <em>anol</em> being indicative of the compound being an alcohol.

<h3>d) 4 - but</h3>

But is associated with the number one, in that it denotes the presence of 4 carbons in the compound. For instance, a 4 carbon carboxylic acid would be known as butanoic acid -with anoic<em> </em>being indicative of the compound being a carboxylic acid, and but signifying the presence of four carbons.

<h3>e) 5 - pent</h3>

Pent is the associated prefix with the number five as it denotes the presence of five carbon atoms in the compound. For instance, the compound pentene gets it name for having five carbon atoms (denoted by pent). The pent acts as a prefix to the characteristic <em>ene</em> of alkenes.

<h3>f) 6 - hex</h3>

Hex is the prefix that signifies the presence of six carbons in the compound in question. For instance, a six carbon alkane would be known as hexane -with <em>ane </em>being indicative of the compound being an alkane, and hex denoting the presence of one carbon

<h3>g) 7 - hept</h3>

Hept is the associated prefix with the number seven as it denotes the presence of seven carbon atoms in the compound. For instance, the compound heptene gets it name for having seven carbon atoms (denoted by hept). The hept acts as a prefix to the characteristic <em>ene</em> of alkenes.

<h3>h) 8 - oct</h3>

Oct is the prefix that is associated with the number 8. This is because it denotes the presence of eight carbon atoms in the compound. For instance, the compound octane gets it name for having eight carbon atoms (denoted by oct). The oct acts as a prefix to the characteristic <em>ane</em> of alkanes.

<h3>i) 9 - non</h3>

Non is the prefix that is associated with the number nine, and thus denotes the presence of nine carbon atoms in the compound. For instance, for alkanes, a nonane would be a nine carbon atom alkane, with non denoting the presence of nine carbon atoms, and <em>ane</em> being indicative that the compound it an alkane.

<h3>j) 10- dec</h3>

Dec is the prefix that is associated with the number nine, and thus denotes the presence of nine carbon atoms in the compound. For instance, for alkanes, a decane would be an alkane with ten carbon atoms, with dec denoting the presence of ten carbon atoms, and <em>ane</em> being indicative that the compound it an alkane.

<h3>Hope this helps!</h3>
