In stars, hydrogen nuclei combine with each other to form helium and other heavier elements. what is this process called?
slega [8]
Hello!

The process in which hydrogen nuclei combine with each other to form helium and other heavier elements is called Nuclear Fusion.

Nuclear Fusion happens when the repulsion between the two nuclei is overcome by the Strong Interaction Force, spending and releasing high amounts of energy.

The two nuclei need to be close enough for Nuclear Fusion to happen, and the energy needed to achieve that is given by the extremely hot temperatures that exist within stars (about 15 000 000 Kelvin). That's why this kind of reactions are common in stars. 

Have a nice day!

how many valence electrons are found in most atoms of noble gases use this information to explain why the noble gases are unreac
kvasek [131]
8 valence electrons are found in noble gases. Since noble gases have 8 valence electrons that means they have a full shell - which makes them unreactive

PLEASE HELP ASAP! 32 mins left! Give the sign of the electrodoes and the reaction of that occurs at each for both voltaic and el
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

In a voltaic cell (one that happens spontaneously), electrons flow from a negative electrode to a positive electrode (anode  cathode). The reaction that happens is a redox reaction where the anode is oxidized (goes from a solid to an ion) and the cathode is reduced (going from an ion to a solid).

For molecules with more than one ionizable groups, such as glycine, which of the following statements is true? For molecules wit
tester [92]

Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The isoelectric point (pI) is actually the pH where a particular amino acid exists as a neutral molecule. This means that if pH equals pI then there will be no electric charge on the molecule.

Therefore, the statement at pH near the pI, nearly all the molecules carry no net charge, is true.

A buffer is composed of a solution of weak acid or base and salt of weak acid/base.So, when pH equals pI then there occurs no net charge. Hence, there will be no existence of conjugate acid-base pair.

Therefore, the statement when the pH is near the pI, the solution is near its maximum buffering ability, is false.

It is known that when pH is less than pI then there will be a net positive charge on the amino acid.

Hence, the statement at a pH near the pI, nearly all the molecules carry a net positive charge, is false.

When pH is greater than pI then amino acid will have a net negative charge. Hence, the statement at a pH near the pI, nearly all the molecules carry a net negative charge, is false.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options the statement at pH near the pI, nearly all the molecules carry no net charge, is true.

Hihi!

During Rutherford's experiment<span> of shooting particles through a sheet of </span>gold foil <span>he had discovered that some were deflected! This had proved that an </span>atom<span> is actually a small dense nucleus surrounded by orbiting electrons!

I hope I helped!
