Answer : A Lewis structure is a graphical representation of the distribution of electrons around atoms. Mainly it illustrates the lone pairs of electrons present in molecules. They are also known as Lewis dot diagrams and mainly used for simple way to represent the configuration of atoms within a molecule.

The halogens are the five non-metallic elements found in group 7A of the modern periodic table. The term "halogen" stands for "salt-former" and compounds which contains halogens are called as "salts" as they produce salts when it reacts with metals.

All halogens are supposed to have 7 electrons in their outermost shells.

When a diatomic structure is formed by two elements of halogens, one electron from each halogen combines to form bonds between them.

The diagram is attached here in the answer.

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

polymerization

Explanation:

Student is explaining the process of formation of a polymer and the process is called polymerization.

Polymer is made up of joining repeating units. The repeating units are called monomers.  

Properties of the polymer is determined by the structure of monomer molecule.

For example, consider a well-known polymer Teflon.is made by the polymerization of tetrafluoroethane.  

Thus, the student is explaining polymerization.

Match the following descriptions with the correct polysaccharide, note if you answer any part of this question incorrectly a sig
Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

Glycogen. Cellulose. Amylose. Cellulose. Amylopetin and Glycogen. Amylopetin and Cellulose.

Explanation:

Glycogen is the form that glucose is stored in human body.

Cellulose is the structural part of plant cell walls and human cannot digest it.

Amylose is the polysaccharide linked mainly by the the bonds of \alpha 1,4 glycosidic.

Cellulose is an unbranched polysaccharide linked mainly by the bonds of  \beta 1,4 glycosidic.

Amylopetin and Glycogen are branched polysaccharides linked by the bonds of \alpha 1,4 glycosidic and \alpha 1,6 glycosidic.

Amylopetin and Cellulose are mainly stored in plants.
