Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Plants used to prepare food in the presence of sunlight. Therefore, plants uses solar energy to make food.

Due to solar energy various chemical reactions take place in the food.

Thus, we can conclude that chemical energy is stored in our food and this chemical energy start out as light energy from the sun.

The answer is: light energy from the sun.

Light energy is radiant energy from the sun; it's the only kind of energy we can see with our eyes.

In photosynthesis (convert light energy into chemical energy), the carbon in carbon(IV) oxide is being reduced to form glucose.

The pigment chlorophyll absorbs one photon and loses one electron (it passed throw an electron transport chain) in the light-dependent reactions.

Light energy is transformed into chemical energy, that is stored in carbohydrate molecules (glucose), which are synthesized from carbon dioxide and water.

What aspect of metallic bonding is responsible for malleability ductility and conductivity of metals?

ANTONII [103]

Bonds are forces of attractions between atoms formed by the transfer of electrons or sharing of electrons. Metallic bond is a type bond that exist in metallic structures where the atoms of the metals attracts the sea of electrons in the structure.It is these metallic bonds that results to the malleability , ductility and conductivity of metals because in that the sea of electrons makes them conduct electricity. In addition the atoms of metals in the structure are ions which can slide past each other in the sea of electrons.

What is the reaction quotient, Q, for this system when [N2] = 2.00 M, [H2] = 2.00 M, and [NH3] = 1.00 M at 472°C?

cupoosta [38]

Answer : The value of reaction quotient, Q is 0.0625.

Solution : Given,

Concentration of $N_2$ = 2.00 M

Concentration of $H_2$ = 2.00 M

Concentration of $NH_3$ = 1.00 M

Reaction quotient : It is defined as a concentration of a chemical species involved in the chemical reaction.

The balanced equilibrium reaction is,

$N_2+3H_2\rightleftharpoons 2NH_3$

The expression of reaction quotient for this reaction is,

$Q=\frac{[Product]^p}{[Reactant]^r}\\Q=\frac{[NH_3]^2}{[N_2]^1[H_2]^3}$

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get

$Q=\frac{(1.00)^2}{(2.00)^1(2.00)^3}=0.0625$

Therefore, the value of reaction quotient, Q is 0.0625.
