xplanation:

A line shows a bonding pair of electrons (which are usually 2 for every line) – the atoms involved in the bond share two electrons per bond to form a covalent bond. The two dots show a pair of lone electrons NOT involved in bonding.

The Carbon and Sulfur will require to have their valence orbital shell involved in the bonding to have 8 electrons. The Hydrogens need 2 to achieve stable electron configuration. This way the atoms achieve stability in the molecule

What elements does lithium resemble (in terms of electrons) when it loses 1 electron?

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

Li atoms readily give up one electron to form positively charged, Li+ ions. These ions have the same stable electron configuration as the noble gas helium. All Group 1 atoms can lose one electron to form positively charged ions.

The density of whole blood is 1.05 g/ml. a typical adult has between 4.7 and 5.5 l of whole blood. what is the mass in pounds of

Kisachek [45]

<span>1.05 g/ml * 1000 ml = 1050g/l because of 1g/ml = 1 kg/l so, a/q mass of 4.7 l of whole blood in pound = 4.7 * 1050 = 4935 g so in pound 4935g = 10.87981p</span>

How does insulin bind to cells and the mechanism involved in triggering the cells to take in glucose

Lera25 [3.4K]

Explanation:

Once blood glucose levels increase, pancreatic insulin migrates into a fat cell via the blood stream. Insulin then binds in the plasma membrane of the cell to an Insulin Receptor (IR). Through autophosphorylation, phosphate groups are then added to the IR, causing GLUT4 molecules to come to the cell's surface.

In a redox reaction, how does the total number of electrons lost by the oxidized substance compare to the total number of electr

snow_lady [41]

The answer is (2) equal to. In redox reactions, you can't just lose electrons somewhere. If an electrons is lost by one, it must be gained by another. Hence, the importance of balancing redox reactions.
