Hid BadAssWithABow,

Your Question:

Which of these elements has two electrons in its outer p orbitals? A. helium (He) B. barium (Ba) C. nitrogen (N) D. silicon (Si) E. sulfur (S)

Answer:

A. helium (He)

The reason its helium is because helium has 2 electrons.

Answer:

D. Silicon

Explanation:

A) Atomic number of He = 4

Valence Electron configuration = 1s²

B) Atomic number of Ba = 56

Valence Electron configuration = 6s²

C) Atomic number of N = 7

Valence Electron configuration = 2s²2p³

D) Atomic number of Si = 14

Valence Electron configuration = 3s²3p²

E) Atomic number of S = 16

Valence Electron configuration = 3s²3p⁴

Thus, silicon has 2 electrons in its outer p orbitals

Give the name for the strongest intermolecular interaction between the substrate and the following amino acids on the star prote
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

The answer is IONIC BOND

Explanation:

Steroidogenic acute regulatory, (StAR) protein is a type of globular protein, which allows it act as an active catalyst on substrates. Because the substrates on which enzymes act usually have higher molecular weights of several hundred as compared to the enzymes, only a fraction of the enzyme's surface is in contact with the substrate. This region of contact called the <em>active site</em>, is as a result of the protein folding itself into a tertiary structure.

Once the correct substrate has bound at the active site of the enzyme, an enzyme-substrate complex is created. The substrate is usually held in the complex by combinations of electrical attraction, hydrophobic repulsion, or hydrogen bonding between and from the amino acid; the strongest of which is the ionic/electrostatic bonding due to larger amount of ionic "R" groups in the protein structure.

So whilst all these inter-molecular interactions are possible, the strongest would be <u>ionic bond.</u>

describe how knowledge of the periodic table would be important in three different careers, based on what you’ve read.
ANEK [815]

The knowledge of periodic table would be important in these three different careers such as medicine, pharmacology and engineering.

<h3>What is the importance of periodic table in following careers?</h3>

Periodic table is organised the whole elements vertically in groups and horizontally in periods with increasing atomic number.

The knowledge of arrangement of these elements serves alot of purposes in the following three different careers:

  • Medicine: The element, iron is an important metal in the periodic table used in treatment of low blood levels.

  • Pharmacology: The transition metals are useful in the field of pharmacology for the production of drugs. Example of such elements are chromium, manganese, cobalt, nickel, copper, and molybdenum.

  • Engineering: The information of elements in the periodic table helps engineers in designing of materials used for constructions.

Therefore, the knowledge of periodic table is very important in these three different careers such as medicine, pharmacology and engineering.

The shape of a molecule is trigonal planar. How many electron domains around the central atom does this molecule most likely hav
soldi70 [24.7K]
I would think that the answer would be three

Because of the prefix tri- in "tigonal"

Tri- means 3, as in tricycle or triangle

So, it would make sense for the answer to be 3

water interacts with polar substances like –oh groups but not with non-polar substances like methyl (−ch3) or ethyl groups (−ch2
Brilliant_brown [7]

CH3OH and CH3CH2CH2OH will easily dissolve in water based on polarity not on size.

<h3>What is Polarity ?</h3>

In chemistry, polarity describes the type of bonds that exist between atoms. Atoms share electrons when they join forces to form chemical bonds. When one of the atoms applies a stronger attractive force to the bond's electrons, a polar molecule is created.

  • For instance, the chlorine atom is slightly negatively charged while the hydrogen atom in hydrogen chloride is slightly positively charged.

  • Water is polar due to its form even though its molecules have no net charge. The molecule's hydrogen ends are positive, and its oxygen ends are negative. Water molecules are drawn to other polar molecules and to one another as a result.
