Where do we get all of our simple and complex carbohydrates from

Chemistry
1 answer:
7nadin3 [17]2 years ago
7 0

Answer & explanation:

Carbohydrates (both simple and complex) are found in all plant foods, due to the fact that plants produce them during <u>photosynthesis</u> and use carbohydrates as their energy source.

Some examples of carbohydrate rich foods are corn, rice, potatoes and pasta as well. Honey and dairy foods also have carbohydrates.

Carbohydrates also have structural function, such as cellulose, which is the main component of plant cell walls, and chitin, which can be found in the atropod exoskeleton.

"Atoms of magnesium and oxygen form ions and ionic bonds "The difference is that instead of having each atom gain or lose one el
Tanzania [10]

Explanation:

Atomic number of magnesium is 12 and its electronic distribution is 2, 8, 2. To attain noble gas configuration it is necessary for the magnesium atom to lose two valence electrons and therefore, it forms Mg^{2+} ions.

On the other hand, atomic number of oxygen atom is 8 and its electronic distribution is 2, 6. To attain noble gas configuration it needs to gain two electrons. And, on gaining the electrons it forms O^{2-} ions.

Hence, when both magnesium and oxygen ions chemically combine with each other then it forms the compound magnesium oxide (MgO).

This is because magnesium transfer its two valence electrons to the oxygen atom and due to the formation of opposite charges on these atoms they get attracted towards each other.

What is the radius of a hydrogen atom whose electron is bound by 0.544 ev? express your answer with the appropriate units?
insens350 [35]
First, we need to calculate the principal quantum number n for this electron, using the equation:
E = (-13.60 eV) / (n x n)
where E is the energy that is used to bound the electron (here, E = - 0.544 eV).
- 0.544 eV = (-13.60 eV) / (n x n)
n x n = (- 13.60 eV) / (- 0.544 eV)
n x n = 25
n = 5

The orbital radius that is equal to the radius of a hydrogen atom is calculated using the equation:
r = 0.053 nm x n x n
r = 0.053 nm x 5 x 5
r = 0.053 nm x 25
r = 1.325 nm

180m/173 Tl -&gt; 180/173 Tl + ? Express your answer as a nuclear equation ​
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer: The nuclear equation is ^{180}_{173}Tl \rightarrow ^{180}_{173}Tl + ^{0}_{0}\gamma.

Explanation:

A nuclear reaction in which a heavy particle splits into another particle along with release of energy is called a nuclear fission reaction.

For example, ^{180}_{173}Tl \rightarrow ^{180}_{173}Tl + ^{0}_{0}\gamma

Here, energy is radiated in the form of gamma radiation.

Thus, we can conclude that the nuclear equation is ^{180}_{173}Tl \rightarrow ^{180}_{173}Tl + ^{0}_{0}\gamma.

Carbondioxide gas is't collectable in water. why​?
Lisa [10]

Answer:

carbon dioxide is a gas so it isn't collected over water.

Explanation:

it works for insoluble gases such as hydrogen,or gases that do not dissolve easily in water such as ammonia and chlorine are readily soluble in water and are not collected this way.

hope it is helpful for you.
