<h3>Answer:</h3>

            When a disulfide linkage is formed, the compound containing this new linkage has been <u>oxidized</u>.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

                   Oxidation reaction is defined as,

i) Addition of Oxygen Atoms:

                                   When oxygen atom is added to any compound, then the compound is said to be oxidized and the reaction is known as oxidation reaction.

Example:

Oxidation of Alcohols into carboxylic acids:

                                   R---CH₂--OH         →         R---COOH

ii) Removal of Hydrogen Atoms:

                                                    When hydrogen atom(s) are removed from any compound, then the compound is said to be oxidized and the reaction is also called as oxidation reaction.

Example:

Formation of disulfide bond fro thiols:

                                 R--S-H  +  R--S-H      →       R---S--S---R

Disulfide bond is quite popular in protein chemistry where it is formed in cystine from cystein amino acids.

when was the last year the theory of understanding the energetics and arrangement of atoms was developed
NISA [10]

In 1897 the theory of understanding the energetics and arrangement of atoms was developed by Josheph Larmor.

It is also called solar system model of atom.

<h3>What is solar system model of atom? </h3>

The “solar system” model indicates an atom as a whole massive positive body that is the nucleus similar to the sun in the solar system with negative entities that are the electrons as the planets in our solar system revolving around it.

<h3>Why this model not accepted? </h3>

The thought about this model is that the electrons which revolves around the nucleus are the charged particles which have centripetal acceleration during the revolution. Even if they all are travelling at the same velocity in modulus, the trajectory of their velocity varies with respect to time which resulting in the centripetal acceleration. An accelerated charge particle will emit energy in the form of electromagnetic radiation. This results in the loss of energy which causes the charged particle to fall inside the nucleus. Therefore, this fails to happen.

Thus, we concluded that In 1897 the theory of understanding the energetics and arrangement of atoms was developed.

Which one of the following is a balanced equation?
ziro4ka [17]

Answer: OA is a balanced equation.

Explanation: For an equation to be balanced, the number of atoms and the total charge of each element in the reaction, of the product and reactant side must be the same.

Considering OA; 6 atoms of nitrogen is present in the reactant side. Shifting to the product side, 6 atoms of nitrogen is also present. Taking the other element in the reaction into account, the number of atoms of each element balances on both sides.
