What are the electrons capable of Sharing accepting or donating called?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Oliga [24]4 years ago
8 0
Substances have different tendencies to donate or accept electrons. When a really good donor meets a great acceptor, the chemical reaction releases a lot of energy. Oxygen (O2) is the best electron acceptor and is used in many aerobic reactions (reactions with oxygen). Hydrogen gas (H2) is a good electron donor.

When O2 and H2 are combined, along with a catalyst, water (H2O) is formed. This example of a redox reaction can be written like this:

How do protons electrons and neutrons differ in charge and location in the atom?
dlinn [17]
Electrons are electrochemically negatively charged particles that move random around the nucleus. They have a relatively small mass compared to Protons and Neutrons. They are found in electron clouds that surround the nucleus and their movement and properties provide for the bonding characteristics of each atom.

The hydrogen bonding atoms in melatonin are phospholipids and cholesterol.

<h3>What is Hydrogen bonding?</h3>

This is the type of interaction which involves a hydrogen atom being covalently bound to a more electronegative "donor".

Melatonin controls sleep-wake cycle and has phospholipids and cholesterol which have high affinity for hydrogen bonding.

What keeps some of the radiation from the Sun in the atmosphere?
Yanka [14]
The appropriate answer is b. greenhouse gases. Greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and methane have the ability to trap infrared radiation or heat in the atmosphere. Without these gases the Earth would be thirty degrees cooler than it is today. Pollution today has caused more of these gases to enter the atmosphere and this is the main cause of contemporary global warming.
Ozone in the stratosphere actually blocks another form of radiation called ultraviolet radiation. Geothermal energy is derived from hot rocks inside the earth.
