Two different samples decompose when heated. Only one of the samples is soluble in water.

1 answer:

5 0

<span>If both samples decompose when heated they cannot be elements, because elements don't decompose. As a matter of fact that is one of the definitions of an element--a substance that cannot be broken down into anything simpler by chemical methods.

Compounds that are the same have the same chemical and physical properties, so if one of the compounds is soluble in water, then both are soluble in water.

Do plasmids have an importance beyond the practice of genetic engineering?

kozerog [31]

Answer: Yes

Explanation: Plasmids offer a number of unique characteristics that make genetic engineering much more efficient. Plasmids are a type of non-chromosomal DNA. Integrating DNA into a bacterial or other chromosome is far more complex than simply putting DNA into a cell; plasmids make it easier to transport DNA into a cell by eliminating this step.

What happens to an electron when it emits a photon

Flura [38]

Answer:

when electron emit the radiations it means it jumped to the lower energy level from higher energy level.

Explanation:

When electron jump into lower energy level from high energy level it loses the energy.

The process is called de-excitation.

Excitation:

When the energy is provided to the atom the electrons by absorbing the energy jump to the higher energy levels. This process is called excitation. The amount of energy absorbed by the electron is exactly equal to the energy difference of orbits.

De-excitation:

When the excited electron fall back to the lower energy levels the energy is released in the form of radiations. this energy is exactly equal to the energy difference between the orbits. The characteristics bright colors are due to the these emitted radiations. These emitted radiations can be seen if they are fall in the visible region of spectrum.
