Which of the following statements is true?

1 answer:

5 0

Answer: option D Chemical reaction rates vary with the conditions of the reaction, but nuclear decay rates do not.

Justification:

1) The rate of chemical reactions are affected by: concentration of the reactants, state of the reactants, temperature, and presence of catalizers. So the first part of the statement is true.

2) Nuclear decay rates are constant. The decay depends on the nature of the element but not the conditions. That is why dating fossils with radiactive isotopes is possible. So, the second part of the statement is true.

During beta-oxidation of fatty acids, ___________ is produced in peroxisomes but not in mitochondria. A) acetyl-CoA B) FADH 2 C)

stepan [7]

Answer:

The correct option is D

Explanation:

Normally, beta-oxidation of fatty acid occurs in the mitchondrial matrix, however, when the fatty acid chains are too long, the beta-oxidation occurs in the peroxisomes where the oxidation is not attached to ATP synthesis but rather transferred (i.e high energy electrons are transferred) to O₂ to form hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂). This is the major difference between the beta-oxidation that occurs in the peroxisomes to that which occurs in the mitochondria.

CORO Name three ways that scientists can ensure their results are reliable

Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

Reliability. When a scientist repeats an experiment with a different group of people or a different batch of the same chemicals and gets very similar results then those results are said to be reliable. Reliability is measured by a percentage – if you get exactly the same results every time then they are 100% reliable.

Explanation:

Sorry, I only got one way.

Given the chemical formulas of the following compounds, name each compound and state the rules you used to determine each name.

Svetlanka [38]

When naming an ionic compound, write the name of the cation, which is the metal first. Then, write the name of the anion, which is the nonmetal. However, you remove the last 2-3 letters and replace suffixes.

1. RbF --> Rubidium Fluoride
Change fluorine to fluoride
2. CuO --> Copper (II) Oxide
Change oxygen to oxide. Oxide has a charge of -2. Since no subscripts are written, it means they have the same opposite charge. So, we use Copper (II).
3. (NH₄)₂C₂O₄ ---> Ammonium Oxalate
NH₄ is ammonia, but we change it to ammonium for polyatomic ions.
