Answer:

D

Explanation:

The building blocks or monomers of proteins are called amino acids. There are 20 different kinds of amino acids. The amino acids form long chains that are proteins. Therefore, proteins are polymers of amino acids.

Proteins are very important for the body because they have many different roles. They provide structure for tissues, act as enzymes, hormones and antibodies, aid in transportation and fluid regulation.

Therefore, the correct answer is D. a polymer of amino acids.

What happens when a metal is reduced. Give an example of a metal being reduced
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

The oxidation number of the metal decreases

2 Al  + Fe₂O₃ → Al₂O₃ + 2 FeO

The metal element iron, is reduced from Fe⁺³ in Fe₂O₃ to Fe⁺² in FeO

Explanation:

When an element gains electron, the element becomes reduced, hence when a metal is reduced, the metal gains electrons, which reduces the oxidation number of the metal

An example of a metal being reduced is;

2 Al  + Fe₂O₃ → Al₂O₃ + 2 FeO

In the above reaction, the iron (III) oxide is reduced to iron (II) oxide by aluminium metal.

A little boy has placed his pet squirrel into a balloon with a volume of 3L at a pressure of 1.0 atm. If the boy takes his pet s
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer: The squirrel's balloon will be 0.86 L

Explanation:

To calculate the new volume, we use the equation given by Boyle's law. This law states that pressure is directly proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature.

The equation given by this law is:

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

where,

P_1\text{ and }V_1 are initial pressure and volume.

P_2\text{ and }V_2 are final pressure and volume.

We are given:

P_1=1.0atm\\V_1=3L\\P_2=3.5atm\\V_2=?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

1.0\times 3L=3.5\times V_2\\\\V_2=0.86

Thus the squirrel's balloon will be 0.86 L

What is the amount in grams of EDTA needed to make 315.1 mL of a 0.05 M EDTA solution. The molar mass of EDTA is 374 g/mol
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

58.92 g EDTA

Explanation:

315.1 mL = .3151 L    

M = Moles / Liter

.3151 L  x <u>0.5 mol EDTA</u>  x  <u>374 g EDTA</u>  =  58.92 g EDTA

                1 L EDTA             1 mol EDTA

Describe the relationship between volume and temperature of an ideal gas
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

Explanation:

Here, we want to describe the relationship between the volume and temperature of an ideal gas

This relationship is defined by Charles' law

From this law, we know that the volume of a given mass of gas is directly proportional to its temperature at a fixed pressure

What this means is that as long as the pressure remains unchanged, when the volume increases, the temperature increases, and when the volume decreases, the temperature decreases

These can be represented by the mathematical formula below:

\frac{V_1}{T_1}\text{ = }\frac{V_2}{T_2}
