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.

Answer:

E) All of the above.

Explanation:

Hello,

Since the acidic nature of the HCl implies its corrosiveness, when it is in contact with the skin and eyes the burning starts immediately, so gloves and goggles must be worn. Next, the fuming hydrochloric acid (37% by mass) is volatile so it gives off even when dissolved into water, so it must be used in the fume hood. Then, since vapors are produced during the chemical reaction, an overpressure could be attained, that's why we must keep the glass sash of the fume hood between us and the vial. As a common risk, the vial could be dropped causing the hydrochloric acid to splash, so we must keep the vial well inside the hood.

Best regards.

Their densities could be different.

The volume for an ounce of lead is much different than an ounce of aluminum.

the weight of a cubic meter of balsa wood is much different (and much lighter) than a cubic meter of water. That's why the ancients used balsa for their rafts.
