Answer:
Explanation:
THE PHOTOCHEMICAL(LIGHT) REACTIONS :This is a phase of photosynthesis where sunlight is used as a source of energy to manufacture two chemical compounds which are "Reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate"-NADPH and "Adenosine triphosphate"-ATP.This phase of photosynthesis involves 4 steps or reactions which are :
STEP 1 : Activation or Energization of chlorophyll - In this reaction,chlorophyll molecules in green algae or plants absorb sunlight and become activated,that is the electrons of the chlorophyll molecule acquire solar energy and become excited.
STEP 2 : PHOTOLYSIS OF WATER - Here the energy absorbed by the chlorophyll molecules are used to split water molecules into H+ ions and OH-- ions.
STEP 3:Formation of NADPH -The hydrogen ions (H+) produced reacts with an NADP ( an electron carrier in the chlorophyll) to form NADPH.
STEP 4: FORMATION OF ATP - The high energy generated from the electron transfer process or chain is used to add a phosphate group to ADP (Adenosine dphosphate) to form ATP.
DARK PHASE :In this phase of photosynthesis,the NADPH generated in the light phase is used as a reducing equivalent to reduce CO2 to form Glucose (food) using the ATP generated as a source of energy.
Answer:
B. calcium has electrons in more energy levels than magnesium
Explanation:
atoms are made of three types of subatomic particles - electrons, protons and neutrons.
Neutrons and protons reside in the nucleus of the atom and electrons reside in energy shells
electronic configuration for both Ca and Mg are as follows
Mg - 2,8,2
Ca - 2,8,8,2
outermost energy shell of Mg with electrons is the third energy level
whereas outermost energy shell of Ca with electrons is the fourth energy shell
therefore Ca has a larger atomic radius than Mg as it has one more energy shell than Mg in which electrons reside
Answer:
[OH-] = 3.0 x 10^-19 M
Explanation:
[H3O+][OH-] = Kw
Kw = 1.0 x 10^-14
[H3O+][OH-] = 1.0 x 10^-14
[OH-] = 1.0 x 10^-14 / 3.3 x 10^4 = 3.0 x 10^-19
Answer:
The correct answer is reduction.
Explanation:
Nitrogen gas reacts with hydrogen gas and get reduced to form ammonia. In this reaction.This is important reaction of atmospheric nitrogen fixation.The reaction is carried out by many nitrogen fixing bacteria such as Azotobacter,Clostridium etc.
N2+3H2+6e- = 2NH3
The crystals will not be oxidised since it will be underground
