Answer:-
A. A water molecule
Explanation:-
A molecule is the smallest particle of a compound that retains all it's chemical properties.
Here H2O is a compound. So the smallest particle that will retain all the chemical properties and still remain water is water molecule.
Atoms Hydrogen and Oxygen both have different chemical properties from water H2O and are thus different.
Hydrogen peroxide is different molecule from water. So it is also not water.
Zeff is the effective nuclear charge wherein, Z resembles the number of protons in the nucleus while S corresponds to the number of non-valence electrons.
Zeff = Z - S
Silicon has 14 protons; its electron configuration is [Ne] 3s2 3p2. Its
non-valence electrons is in the n = 1 and n =2 shells. There are 2
electrons in n = 1 and 8 in n = 2, so there are a total of 10
non-valence electron.

So, the answer is 4.
Answer:
pI = 6.16
Explanation:
The pI is given by the average of the pKas that are involved. In this case,
Pka of carboxylic acid was given as 2.72 and that of the Amino group was given as 9.60. the average would then be ½(2.72+9.60)
= 6.16
Answer:
The balanced single displacement reaction between aluminum and copper sulphate is as follows.

Explanation:
The given ions are as follows.
- Aluminium ion and copper sulfate ion.
Single displacement reaction occurs one element replaces another element.
Hence, the balanced chemical reaction is as follows.

<u>Oxidation half reaction:</u>

Aluminium loses three electrons.
<u>Reduction half reaction:</u>
<u>
</u>
Copper gain three electrons.
