1 answer:

8 0

Steam is a gas. ... The difference between a liquid and the other states of matter is that liquid molicules are more spread apart than solid molicules but less spread apart than gas molicues. Water is the base for both ice and steam.on:

Which is the smallest particle into which water (H2O) in a glass can be broken down and still remain water? A. a water molecule

Gnesinka [82]

Answer:-

A. A water molecule

Explanation:-

A molecule is the smallest particle of a compound that retains all it's chemical properties.

Here H2O is a compound. So the smallest particle that will retain all the chemical properties and still remain water is water molecule.

Atoms Hydrogen and Oxygen both have different chemical properties from water H2O and are thus different.

Hydrogen peroxide is different molecule from water. So it is also not water.

Classify each amino acid into the following categories. Select the amino acid that fits best in each category. Each amino acid w

mel-nik [20]

Answer:

1. Lysine

2. Aspartic acid

3. Serine

4. Alanine

5. Tryptophan

Explanation:

Amino acids are biomolecules that contain two functional groups and one R side chain. The two functional groups are: carboxyl group and amino group.

The α-amino acids are the amino acids in which the two functional groups and the R side chain are attached to the α-carbon of the amino acid. They are total 22 α-amino acids.

1. A basic amino acid: Lysine is a positively charged, polar basic amino acid with a lysyl side chain.

2. An acidic amino acid: Aspartic acid is a negatively charged, polar acidic amino acid with an acidic carboxymethyl group.

3. A neutral polar amino acid: Serine is a polar and neutral amino acid with a hydroxymethyl group.

4. A non-polar aliphatic amino acid: Alanine is an aliphatic, nonpolar and neutral amino acid with a methyl side chain.

5. An aromatic amino acid: Tryptophan is an aromatic, nonpolar and neutral amino acid with an indole side chain.

What is the identity of the element, and how many neutrons does it have? An elements most stable ion forms an ionic compound wit

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

B. CA, 14

Explanation:

Atoms of elements contain small particles known as electrons, neutrons, and protons. The nucleus of an atom is made up of neutrons and protons which are at the center of the atom. Electrons on the other hand surrounds the nucleus. Electron has negative charge while proton has a positive charge. The number of neutrons is equivalent to the number of protons . In addition, the number of protons is equal to mass number minus the number of electrons.

For the compound $XCl_{2}$ , it can be broken down into $X^{2+}$ and $2Cl^{-}$ . Its ion has a mass of 34 and 18 electrons which means it has already lost 2 electrons.

Therefore:

For the given element, the number of electrons is 18+2 = 20 electrons.

The number of protons = 34 - 20 = 14.

And the number of neutrons is 14.

Only option B has the correct answer.
