The condensation polymerization process is being demonstrated, where two molecules come together to form a larger molecule while releasing a smaller molecule, in this case water.

Answer : The process illustrated in this drawing is, condensation.

Explanation :

Amino acid : The acid that contains two functional groups that are carboxylic group, $-COOH$ and ammine group, $-NH_2$ .

When the two or more that two amino acids join together with the help of peptide bond, they produces polypeptide chain or protein.

The bond present between the two amino acid is called a peptide bond.

The peptide bond is a chemical bond that is formed between the two molecules when the nitrogen of one amino acid react with the carbon of another amino acid by releasing a water molecule. This is a dehydration synthesis or condensation reaction.

Condensation reaction : It is a reaction in which two molecules combine to form a larger molecule and producing water as a byproduct.

Hence, the process illustrated in this drawing is, condensation.

Write one paragraph!!!!!reasons why the minimum wage should be increased.

Answer:

There are pros and cons, I will explain mostly pros. After all the pros outweigh the cons.

Explanation:

Increasing the minimum wage can be letting people work less or earn more. This can have a major impact on the economy in America. It can reduce poverty within some families households. A con concerning this though is that people who work for low pay can lose their jobs and their family can become poor. It can also affect the federal minimum wage.

58. Explain why each successive ionization of an electron

ale4655 [162]

Answer:

It's because removal of electron from an atom, reduces the size of an atom.

Explanation:

When an electron is removed from an atom, it becomes an ion and in this case it will become a postive ion.

When an electron is removed from an atom, the charge balance of an atom is disturbed and positive charge increases in comparison to the negative charge. This results in increase nuclear (positive) charge which exerts greater attraction on the remaining electrons and as a result the remaining electrons are more strongly attracted by the nucleus and in this way the atomic size is decreased. Due to this increased nuclear attraction and reduced atomic size, it bcomes difficult to remove more electeon from the positively charged ion of reduced size. This is the reason that each successive ionization of electron requires a greater amount of energy.

The ionization energy has inverse relation with the size or radius of an atom. This also justifies the reason that why each successive ionization of an electron requires greater amount of energy.
