Sodium has a mass number of 23amu. Since sodium has 11 protons, the number of neutrons must be 23 – 11 = 12 neutrons.
The reactive properties or chemical behavior of an atom is mostly dependant on the number of electrons in the outer shell
Answer:
The catabolic process of converting carbohydrates to CO2 requires<u> oxidation</u> of carbon.
Explanation:
There are multiple definitions of reduction-oxidation. There is one that explains it with respect to oxygen, the other with respect to hydrogen and another with respect to electrons. The relevant one here is the one that explains it in terms of hydrogen. Oxidation is the removal of hydrogen while reduction is the addition of hydrogen. During repiration, the carbon loses the hydrogens attached to it and is therefore oxidized. These hydrogens attach themselves to oxygen which means oxygen is reduced.
Answer:
A)provide a basis for virtually all modern anaesthetic techniques
restore tissue oxygen tension by improving oxygen availability in a wide range of conditions such as COPD, cyanosis, shock, severe hemorrhage, carbon monoxide poisoning, major trauma, cardiac/respiratory arrest
aid resuscitation
provide life support for artificially ventilated patients
aid cardiovascular stability
B)Pure oxygen, instead of air, is used to increase the flame temperature to allow localized melting of the workpiece material (e.g. steel) in a room environment. ... Welding metal results when two pieces are heated to a temperature that produces a shared pool of molten metal.
I believe the answer is conservation of matter. I hope this helps!
