Answer:
The correct option is;
It is used during photosynthesis to capture sunlight
Explanation:
During photosynthesis, light energy from the Sun is converted and stored in sugars as chemical energy. The Sun light energy is used in the formation of complex sugars such as glucose from the combination of water from the ground and carbon dioxide from the atmosphere while oxygen is released as the byproduct. Organisms are then able to obtain energy from the glucose as well as carbon fiber
The chemical equation for the reaction is as follows;
6CO₂ + 12H₂O + light energy → C₂H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ + 6H₂O
Carbon, Water, GLucose, Oxygen, Water
dioxide
Answer:
The unknown element is Carbon.
(a) X is Carbon, its oxide is of acidic nature
(b) C+ O2 → CO2
Explanation:
We are given an unknown element that reacts with oxygen.
X + O2 → XO2
It is given that the oxide XO2 turns blue litmus red which is shown by acids, so XO2 is an acidic oxide. Also X will be a Non metal because Non metallic oxide is Acidic in nature.
The Oxide XO2 is dissolving is water. The oxide upon reacting with water will give an Acid.
XO2 type of oxide is found in the 14th group of the periodic table generally
So we have options like C, Si and Ge as these only have the Acidic oxide.
But when it comes to reactivity with water Only Carbon satisfies the need so the unknown element X is C.
CO2 + H2O → H2CO3 which is an acid.
(a) Element X is Carbon (C), The nature of the compound formed is Acidic.
(b) The reaction given will be as follows
C+ O2 → CO2
Therefore the unknown element is Carbon.
Answer:
How Asthma Affects Your Body. Asthma is a disease that affects the airways of your lungs. With asthma, your airways' lining tends to always be in a hypersensitive state characterized by redness and swelling (inflammation). It's similar to how your skin becomes red, irritated and sensitive after a sunburn.
