Jan Baptista van Helmont did an important experiment related to photosynthesis. He weighed a small willow tree and a pot of soil

. Jan then planted the tree in the pot. Over the course of five years, he added only water to the pot. At the end of five years, he weighed the tree and found that it had gained 74.4 kg. He weighed the soil, and it was only 57 g less. What do the results of this specific experiment demonstrate about what is needed for a plant to grow and increase its mass?

Which of the following statements about atoms is true?
makkiz [27]

Answer:

d. All of the above three answers are correct

Explanation:

Atoms are themselves built up from many smaller particles. According to Rutherford's nuclear theory (1906), the neutron and proton make up the nucleus of the atom.  Atoms are electrically neutral because they contain the same number of electrons and protons. The size of atoms is about 10^{-10} meters. The fundamental particle of the atom is the electron.

Draw the Lewis structures for CH3OH, CH2O and HCOOH. Indicate the hybrid orbital used in the sigma bonds for each of the carbon
sdas [7]

Answer:

See figure 1

Explanation:

For this question, we have to remember that in the lewis structures all atoms must have<u> 8 electrons</u>. And each atom would have a different value of <u>valence electrons</u>:

Carbon => 4

Oxygen=> 6

Hydrogen=> 1

Additionally, for the <u>hybridizations</u> we have to remember that:

Sp^3=> 4 single bonds

Sp^2=> 1 double bond

Sp^1=> 1 double bond

With this in mind, the formaldehyde and formic acid would have Sp^2 carbons and the ethanol an Sp^3 carbon.

Finally, for the oxidation state. We have to remember that <u>if we have more bonds with oxygen, we will have more oxidation</u>. Therefore, the carbon that has more oxidation is the one in the formic acid (we have several bonds with oxygen).

See figure 1

I hope it helps!
