When bonds are broken, energy is released. True or false

Biology

scoundrel [369]3 years ago

Answer:

False. When bonds are broken, energy is absorbed.

Explanation:

Atoms form bonds to seek stability, which means lower energy compared to when they were separated. This means that separating atoms by breaking bonds is not energetically favourable.

Therefore, in order to break a chemical bond we need to provide energy to the system, which makes the process endothermic (it absorbes energy).

The attached image shows an energy diagram for the H₂ molecule, showing the variation in energy during bond formation.

How are electric force and magnetic force similar?
balu736 [363]

Answer:

Both electric and magnetic field are conservative forces.

Both obey inverse square law.

Both are non contact forces (Forces can be exerted without contact).

Both are attractive as well as repulsive (Like poles repel, like charges repel; unlike poles attract, unlike charges attract).

Doss [256]

Answer:

1. Growth on cornmeal agar

2. KOH prep

Explanation:

Cornmeal agar is a nutritional deficient media containing :

  • Corn meal 8g / zein 40 g / 100ml
  • Agar 4g
  • Distilled water 200 ml
  • Large , highly refractory, thick walled.

KOH preparation (10 - 30% ) used to destroy keratin, leaves fungal hyphae.

  • Can add a chitin-specific stain
  • Calcofluor white fluorescent stain increases sensitivity

Hence the organism can easily be identified by these two tests.

jekas [21]

Answer:

genes from the nucleus of a eukaryotic algal endosymbiont

Explanation:

Given: Chlorarachniophyte and cryptophyte algae contain three sets of genetic material: the nuclear genome, the chloroplast genome, and a set of genes found in the nucleomorph.

Here, nucleomorph genes represent genes from the nucleus of a eukaryotic algal endosymbiont

Secondary endosymbiotic acquisition of photosynthesis results in the transitional forms - Cryptophyte and chlorarachniophyte algae.
