Essential amino acids
Amino acids are the molecules that make up proteins when they are linked up. There are certain essential amino acids, namely they are <span>histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, tryptophan, and valine.
All of these must be obtained from one's diet. If they are not, the body will use existing proteins, such as muscle mass, to obtain them.</span>

How many electrons are transferred during the formation of one molecule of al2o3?
lukranit [14]
Answer:
            Six electrons are transferred in the formation of Al₂O₃.

Explanation:
                   Aluminium metal and Oxygen react to form Al₂O₃ as,

                                2 Al  +  3/2 O₂    →    Al₂O₃

Oxidation number of Al on left hand side is zero, while than on right hand side in Al₂O₃ is +3. Means it has lost 3 electrons per one atom and six electrons per two atoms. Also, the oxidation number of O at left hand side in O₂ is zero, while that in Al₂O₃ it is -2 per atom and -6 per 3 atoms. 

So, two Al atoms have lost 6 electrons and 3 O atoms have gained six electrons.

Copper is plated on zinc by immersing a piece of zinc into a solution containing copper(II) ions. In the plating reaction, coppe
Aloiza [94]

Hey there!:

Copper plating on Zinc will occur via this simple reaction:

Cu²⁺   +   2 e⁻   ⇌   Cu

When a species gains electron, it is reduced. Its oxidation state is decreased. For example, in the above reaction Cu2+ gained 2 electron to get reduced to Cu. Its oxidation state changed from +2 to 0. Hence it is a reduction reaction.

So, the correct answer is  :

The copper II ions  gain two electrons and are reduced.

Answer B

Hope this helps!

which atomic particle determines the chemical behavior of an atom the nucleus, neutron, electron, proton or none of these
dusya [7]
The chemical behavior of an atoms is determine by the formation or destruction of chemical bonds. The chemical bonds are the result of the interaction of the electrons of the atoms. Chemical properties of the atoms are given by how attached are the shell electrons attached to the nucleus and how they interact with other atoms. Chemical changes are the result of exchange valence electrons of the atoms. So, <span>the answer is the atomic particle that determines the chemical behavior of an atom is the electron, because it is the particle that is active in chemical bonding.</span>
