Why is carbon good for forming the structure of life?

Chemistry

Leni [432]2 years ago

First things first carbon is quite common element here in Earth. But it is not all, right? Otherwise we would be built from other, more common elements. The thing is in carbon reactiveness. Also energy needed to create carbon chemical compounds isnt that big when compared to etc nitrogen. It can bind up to 4 different elements (atoms). Thanks to this can givesingle, both and triple bindings! Carbon can give away electrons or take them making his degree of oxidation consequently from -IV to +IV. All this vareity leads to vareity of bigger elements that will be created from carbon later- carbohydrates, proteins etc. As life needs vareity to adapt to different situations and climax only carbon therefore can provide this.

Answer:

In plants mitosis takes place throughout life in growing regions called the meristems. Replacements as cells wear out. The cells of the skin and bone marrow are sites of active mitosis replacing skin cells and red blood cells that only have a limited life. Repair.

Express in scientific notation. Make sure your answer has the same number of significant figures as the starting value. (1.8 x 1
slamgirl [31]

Answer : The answer is, 0.2\times 10^{-4}

Explanation :

Scientific notation : It is defined as the way or representation of expressing the number that are too big or too small that is written in the decimal form. That means always written in the power of 10 form.

For example : 8000 is written as, 8.0\times 10^3  in this notation, the significant figure is, 1 but 0.8\times 10^4  in this notation, the significant figures are, 2

The given problem are :

\frac{1.8\times 10^{-2}}{9\times 10^2}=0.2\times 10^{-4}

According to the divide and multiplication rules of scientific figures, the final answer is only as precise as the value with the least number of significant figures.

Hence, the answer is, 0.2\times 10^{-4}

Care to help me guys please​
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

A. Na₂SO₄ and HCl

C. Polar solutes are soluble in polar solvents but are insoluble in non-polar solvents Non-polar solutes are insoluble in polar solvents but are are soluble in non-polar solvents

Ionic solutes are soluble in polar solvents but are insoluble in non-polar solvents.

Like dissolves like simply means that molecules of substances having similar chemical properties dissolve in each other

Explanation:

A. Ionic substances like Na₂SO₄ are composed of charged particles called ions. These ions are either positively charged or negatively charged, therefore, they are attracted to substances of opposite charges. Also, polar molecules like HCl contains two oppositely charged ends. A polar solvent consists of molecules with two oppositely charged ends, therefore, ionic substances as well polar substances dissolve in them according to the concept of like dissolves like.

Gasoline being non-polar will only dissolve in like substances, polar solvents.

C. Polar solutes are soluble in polar solvents but are insoluble in non-polar solvents Non-polar solutes are insoluble in polar solvents but are are soluble in non-polar solvents

Ionic solutes are soluble in polar solvents but are insoluble in non-polar solvents.

The statement "Like dissolves like" simply means that molecules of substances having similar chemical properties dissolve in each other. For example gasoline, a non-polar substance will dissolve only in a non-polar solvent like kerosene. Also, HCl, a polar molecule will dissolve in a polar solvent like water.

A gas has a volume of 3L at 200 kPa. What will its volume be if the pressure is changed to 500 kPa?
marta [7]

Answer:

6L

Explanation:

<em>if it's 3L per 200kPa</em>

then it would be;

4L per 300kPa

5L per 400kPa

6L per 500kPa

that's how i'd work it out in my head, hope it helps, but not sure though!
