Which of the following represents the greatest number of atoms?
forsale [732]
The correct option is B. To get the number of atom for each compound, each element in the compound will be counted as an atom. For instance, for Fe[ClO4]2, there are 1 atom of Fe, 2 atoms of Cl, and 8 atoms of O, making a total of 11 atoms [1 + 2 + 8= 11]. The other options have less than 11 atoms.

Which factor most directly affects potential energy?
Georgia [21]

Answer:

Mass, gravitational force and height

Explanation:

Potential energy of body is the energy at rest in a body and it depends on the mass, acceleration due to gravity and height of a body;

  Potential energy = mass x gravity x height  = mgh

The more the mass, gravity and height of a body, the higher the potential energy a body will posses. This is why a stone at a height has more potential energy than one on the ground.

We identify nucleic acid strand orientation on the basis of important chemical functional groups. These are the _________ group
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

We identify nucleic acid strand orientation on the basis of important chemical functional groups. These are the <u>phosphate</u> group attached to the 5' carbon atom of the sugar portion of a nucleotide and the <u>hydroxyl</u> group attached to the <u>3'</u> carbon atom

Explanation:

Nucleic acids are polymers formed by a phosphate group, a sugar (ribose in RNA and deoxyribose in DNA) and a nitrogenous base. In the chain, the phosphate groups are linked to the 5'-carbon and 3'-carbon of the ribose (or deoxyribose) and the nitrogenous base is linked to the 2-carbon. Based on this structure, the nucleic acid chain orientation is identified as the 5'-end (the free phosphate group linked to 5'-carbon of the sugar) and the 3'-end (the free hydroxyl group in the sugar in 3' position).

Rank the following elements by increasing atomic radius: Carbon, aluminum, oxygen, potassium.
Aloiza [94]

Answer

The elements in increasing order of atomic radius: oxygen, carbon, aluminum, potassium

Explanation:

The distance from the center of the nucleus to the outermost shell of the electron is known as the atomic radius of an element. The atomic radius decreases rightward along each period (row) of the table due to the increase in effective nuclear charge (the charge of the nucleus equal to the number of protons). Across a period, electrons are added to the same energy level and the increasing number of protons causes the nucleus to exert more pull on these electrons, which makes the atomic radius smaller.  Atomic radius increases down each group (column) of the periodic table because of the addition of electrons to higher energy levels, which are further away from the nucleus and the pull of nucleus weakens. Another reason for the increase in atomic radius is the electron shielding effect, which is the reduction of the attractive force between a nucleus and its outer electrons due to the blocking effect of inner electrons

While moving from left to right in the second period, c arbon comes before  oxygen  and so oxygen will have a smaller atomic radius than  carbon. While moving down the periodic table, al uminum comes before  potassium even if they are not in the same period. So aluminum 's atomic radius will be smaller than that of  potassium  but bigger than that of  carbon  and  oxygen.

(hope that helps can i plz have brainlist it will make my day :D hehe)
