A student wants to develop a model of an organism's cell that lacks chloroplasts. Which statement BEST explains how the lack of

HACTEHA [7]

Recall that the main function of chloroplasts is to convert sunlight to chemical energy, or to carry out photosynthesis. Plant (and eukaryotic algae) cells contain these organelles, while animal cells do not, and hence, animals cannot carry out photosynthesis.

So, a lack of chloroplasts would mean that an organism would not be able to convert sunlight into chemical energy through photosynthesis.

Plants cells, and specifically the chloroplast organelle, are able to absorb sunlight, and together with CO₂ and water, produce glucose (for the plant to eat) and oxygen (which is released into the atmosphere). That glucose is further broken down by the plants' mitochondria. Animals directly consume the glucose to be broken down and converted into energy, hence why we do not have - nor need - chloroplasts in our cells.

What is the sea of instability

LiRa [457]

The "sea of instability" refers to a region of elements on the periodic table that are highly unstable. These elements have extremely short half-lives that may be measured in micro- or nanoseconds. (A nanosecond is the time it takes for light to travel one foot.) This region of unstable elements surrounds the island of stability.

B. The following reaction takes place in a basic solution. (7 points)

Natali5045456 [20]

<u>Answer:</u> The final equation has hydroxide ions which indicate that the reaction has occurred in a basic medium.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Redox reaction is defined as the reaction in which oxidation and reduction take place simultaneously.

The oxidation reaction is defined as the reaction in which a chemical species loses electrons in a chemical reaction. It occurs when the oxidation number of a species increases.

A reduction reaction is defined as the reaction in which a chemical species gains electrons in a chemical reaction. It occurs when the oxidation number of a species decreases.

The given redox reaction follows:

$MnO_4^-(aq)+NO_2^-(aq)\rightarrow MnO_2(s)+NO_3^-(aq)$

To balance the given redox reaction in basic medium, there are few steps to be followed:

Writing the given oxidation and reduction half-reactions for the given equation with the correct number of electrons

Oxidation half-reaction: $NO_2^-+2OH^-\rightarrow NO_3^-+H_2O+2e^-$

Reduction half-reaction: $MnO_4^-+2H_2O+3e^-\rightarrow MnO_2+4OH^-$

Multiply each half-reaction by the correct number in order to balance charges for the two half-reactions

Oxidation half-reaction: $NO_2^-+2OH^-\rightarrow NO_3^-+H_2O+2e^-$ ( × 3)

Reduction half-reaction: $MnO_4^-+2H_2O+3e^-\rightarrow MnO_2+4OH^-$ ( × 2)

The half-reactions now become:

Oxidation half-reaction: $3NO_2^-+6OH^-\rightarrow 3NO_3^-+3H_2O+6e^-$

Reduction half-reaction: $2MnO_4^-+4H_2O+3e^-\rightarrow 2MnO_2+8OH^-$

Add the equations and simplify to get a balanced equation

Overall redox reaction: $3NO_2^-+2MnO_4^-+H_2O\rightarrow 3NO_3^-+2MnO_2+2OH^-$

As we can see that in the overall redox reaction, hydroxide ions are released in the solution. Thus, making it a basic solution
