An electron is found whizzing around the nucleus, so in subatomic particles.
Explanation:
Metals react with oxygen to form basic oxides while they react with water to form alkaline solutions. Also, acidic oxides are oxides of nonmetals and they react with water to form acidic solutions.
Trends on the period table shows the variation of metallic character as you move across and down the periodic table. Metallic character of a element decreases across the period on the periodic table from left to right because atoms readily accept electrons in their outermost shell to form stable configurations. Metallic character increases as you move down the group in the periodic table and this is because electrons become easier to lose as the atomic radius increases (more outer shells are added), where there is decreasing attraction between the nucleus and the valence electrons.
So down the group, the acidity of oxide reaction with water decreases because the oxides are more basic down the group while across the period, the acidity of oxide increases because acidic oxides are formed as we move across the period.
Answer:
c. decarboxylation of an a-keto acid.
Explanation:
Decarboxylation refers to the removal of the carboxyl group from a carboxylic acid and thus releasing carbon dioxide. Decarboxylases are enzymes that speed up the removal of the carboxyl group from acids. These reactants could be amino acids, alpha-keto acids, and beta-keto acids. Biotin is known to catalyze the decarboxylation of malonyl CoA to acetyl CoA during fatty acid synthesis.
Malonyl CoA is converted to acetyl CoA after decarboxylation assisted by biotin also known as Vitamin H. Alpha keto acids are involved in fatty acids synthesis and Malonyl CoA is an alpha-keto acid because the keto group is located in the first carbon near the carboxylic acid group. Keto acids have both a carboxyl group and a ketone group.
Hydrogen Peroxide slowly decomposing into water and oxygen increases the entropy of the universe. Any reaction of a system always increases the degree of the orderliness of the universe. Decomposition is one of the best examples of increasing the entropy. This is when substance is broken down further to elements or other compounds.
Answer:
9.4 liter
Explanation:
1) Data:
V₁ = 10.0 L
T₁ = 25°C = 25 + 273.15 K = 298.15 K
P₁ = 98.7 Kpa
T₂ = 20°C = 20 + 273.15 K = 293.15 K
P₂ = 102.7 KPa
V₂ = ?
2) Formula:
Used combined law of gases:
PV / T = constant
P₁V₁ / T₁ = P₂V₂ / T₂
3) Solution:
Solve the equation for V₂:
V₂ = P₁V₁ T₂ / (P₂ T₁)
Substitute and compuite:
V₂ = P₁V₁ T₂ / (P₂ T₁)
V₂ = 98.7 KPa × 10.0 L × 293.15 K / (102.7 KPa × 298.15 K)
V₂ = 9.4 liter ← answer
