53.3% + 6.7% = 60%, 100% - 60% = 40%. 40% of glucose is made of carbon. Since there are only three types of atoms in glucose, and the amount of hydrogen and oxygen is already given, this means that whatever percentage is left (40%) has to be carbon.
<u>Answer:</u> The energy released in the given nuclear reaction is 1.3106 MeV.
<u>Explanation:</u>
For the given nuclear reaction:
We are given:
Mass of = 39.963998 u
Mass of = 39.962591 u
To calculate the mass defect, we use the equation:
Putting values in above equation, we get:
To calculate the energy released, we use the equation:
(Conversion factor: )
Hence, the energy released in the given nuclear reaction is 1.3106 MeV.
Answer: D. They show that neither theory is complete and entirely correct.
Explanation:
Theory is the set of rules and principles that describe and explain a particular phenomenon (the existence of the moon in this case) and is subject to changes as new evidence emerges that gives meaning to it.
In this sense, there are many theories about the Earth's moon formation and two of the "accepted" theories are described before the question. In addition, both theories explain in a certain way the reason why the Moon is predominantly composed of elements similar to those found on Earth.
However, both theories seem to be incomplete when trying to explain our Moon's origin.
