Answer:

Electronegativity

Explanation:

Element: <em>An element is a substance which can not be split into simpler units by an ordinary chemical process</em>

Electronegativity: This is the power of an atom in a molecule to attract electrons. The electronegativity of an element increase across the period in the periodic table and decreases down the group. The most electronegative elements are the reactive non metals.

Examples of electronnegative element include, Oxygen, Chlorine, Fluorine, Nitrogen, sulphur etc.

Advocard [28]

The smallest level of organization in living things is the atom.

Next in line would be the cell, since a cell is made up of atoms working together. Next, cells working together would make up a tissue, and further, tissues working together would make up an organ.

Particle q₁ has a charge of 2.7 μC and a velocity of 773 m/s. If it experiences a magnetic force of 5.75 × 10⁻³ N, what is the s

Ne4ueva [31]

The intensity of the magnetic force F experienced by a charge q moving with speed v in a magnetic field of intensity B is equal to
$F=qvB \sin \theta$
where $\theta$ is the angle between the directions of v and B.

1) Re-arranging the previous formula, we can calculate the value of the magnetic field intensity. The charge is $q=2.7 \mu C=2.7 \cdot 10^{-6}C$ . In this case, v and B are perpendicular, so $\theta=90^{\circ}$ , therefore we have:
$B= \frac{F}{qv \sin \theta} = \frac{5.75 \cdot 10^{-3}N}{(2.7 \cdot 10^{-6}C)(773m/s)\sin 90^{\circ}}=2.8 T$

2) In this second case, the angle between v and B is $\theta=55^{\circ}$ . The charge is now $q=42.0 \mu C=42.0 \cdot 10^{-6}C$ , and the magnetic field is the one we found in the previous part, B=2.8 T, so we can find the intensity of the force experienced by this second charge:
$F=qvB \sin \theta=(42\cdot 10^{-6}C)(1.21 \cdot 10^3 m/s)(2.8 T)(\sin 55^{\circ})=0.12 N$

The electrons lost from chlorophyll photooxidation are replaced by the oxidation of water. how many electrons are generated from

White raven [17]

There are 2 electrons generated from the oxidation of one water molecule.

<h3>Describe photooxidation.</h3>

The process of a substance interacting with oxygen or losing electrons from chemical species under the influence of light is known as photooxidation. Photooxidation happens in plants when there is environmental stress. It is called photooxidative stress as a result. Reactive oxygen species are produced by the absorption of excess excitation energy in plant tissues. Chloroplasts are harmed by the accumulation of these reactive oxygen species, which is a damaging process in plants. High-intensity light and little $CO_{2}$ are the two conditions that cause this photooxidative stress to occur most frequently. It is a procedure that requires light. Photorespiration in $C_{3}$ plants guards against photooxidation.
