Slime flows like a liquid, but unlike familiar liquids (e.g., oil, water), its ability to flow, or viscosity, is not constant. So it's a fluid, but not a regular liquid. Scientists call a material that changes viscosity a non-Newtonian fluid. The technical explanation is that slime is a fluid that changes its ability to resist deformation according to shear or tensile stress.
What this means is, when you pour slime or let it ooze through your fingers, it has a low viscosity and flows like a thick liquid. When you squeeze a non-Newtonian slime, like oobleck, or pound it with your fist, it feels hard, like a wet solid. This is because applying stress squeezes the particles in the slime together, making it hard for them to slide against each other.
Most types of slime are also examples of polymers. Polymers are molecules made by linking together chains of subunits.
The specifics of how a type of slime works depends on its chemical composition, but the basic explanation is that chemicals are mixed to form polymers. The polymers act as a net, with molecules sliding against each other.
Two solutions are combined to make classic slime. One is diluted school glue, or polyvinyl alcohol in water. The other solution is borax (Na2B4O7.10H2O) in water.
Borax dissolves in water into sodium ions, Na+, and tetraborate ions.
The tetraborate ions react with water to produce the OH- ion and boric acid:
B4O72-(aq) + 7 H2O <—> 4 H3BO3(aq) + 2 OH-(aq)
Boric acid reacts with water to form borate ions:
H3BO3(aq) + 2 H2O <— > B(OH)4-(aq) + H3O+(aq)
Hydrogen bonds form between the borate ion and the OH groups of the polyvinyl alcohol molecules from the glue, linking them together to form a new polymer: slime.
Okay so,
1) Translation- show the RNA strand attatching to a DNA strand with the complimentary base pairs. introns are spliced
2) mRNA leaves the cell and joins with a ribosome
3) Transcription - tRNA (clover shaped) reads each codon (triplets) which each code for an amino acid. The stop codons on the end tell the tRNA that the chain is finished
4) the sequence forms the primary structure (all peptide bonds) which determines the shape of the secondary (hyrdogen and peptide) and hence determines the shape of the tertiary structure of a protein (ionic, hydrogen, disulfide bridges and hydrophibic interactions)
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
An excellent experiment is to heat sodium thiosulfate in a water bath. The solid crystals will dissolve into the water in the hydrated crystals forming a supersaturated solution. ... Placing a small crystal in the supersaturated solution will cause the liquid to turn solid.
Explanation:
Lewis definition of Acids and Bases
Chemical species which are capable of accepting electron pairs or donating protons are called Lewis acid.
Chemical species which are capable of donating electron pairs or accepting protons are called Lewis base.
Bronsted definition of acids and bases
Chemical species which are capable of donating H+ are called Bronsted acids.
Chemical species which are capable of accepting H+ are called Bronsted bases.
So all Bronsted acids are Lewis acids but all Lewis acids are not Bronsted acids.
For a chemical species to behave as Lewis acid, they must have:
- Incomplete octet
- Double bond
- Vacant d-orbitals
For example, in BF3, octet of boron is incomplete, so it can accept a pair of electron and behaves as Lewis acid.
For a chemical species to behave as Lewis base, they must have:
For example, NH3 and OH, both N and O have lone pairs of electrons, hence behave as Lewis base.
This doesn’t have a multiple choice part to answer.
