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.

Graphite, an allotrope of carbon, is converted into cubic diamond through a process that may take a billion years or longer.

andriy [413]

Answer:

The given statement is true.

Explanation:

The given statement is true.

As per an estimate, to convert graphite into diamond nearly 1 billion to 3.3 billion years of time is required.

Graphite converts into diamond when high-pressure is applied deep in the earth core.

$\qquad$ ☀️ $\pink{\bf{ {Answer = \: \: 85.57g }}}$

Molar mass of $\bf Cu_2O$

$\qquad$ $\twoheadrightarrow\sf 63.546 \times 2 +16$

$\qquad$ $\pink{\twoheadrightarrow\bf 143.092 g}$

<u>As we know</u>–

1 mol = $\bf 6.02×10^{23}$ formula units

1 mol $\bf Cu_2O$ = 143.092 g = $\bf 6.02×10^{23}$ formula units

Henceforth –

$\bf 3.60×10^{23}$ formula units $\bf Cu_2O$ –

$\qquad$ $\sf :\implies \dfrac{143.092 \times3.60×10^{23 }}{6.02×10^{23}}$

$\qquad$ $\sf :\implies \dfrac{143.092 \times3.60×\cancel{10^{23 }}}{6.02×\cancel{10^{23}}}$

$\qquad$ $\pink{:\implies\bf 85.57 g}$

Which is a type of tectonic plate boundary?

UNO [17]

There are three types of tectonic plate boundary. These are divergent, convergent and transform plate boundaries. The divergent boundary is a fault where two plate move away from each other. Convergent is when two separate plates push each other. Lastly, transform plate boundary is when two plates slide past each other.
