Answer:
Group 12
Explanation:
Group 12 transition metals are diamagnetic. They behave properties that distinguish them. They naturally have twelve electrons hence their outermost shell is fully filled.
Transition metals have high densities which increases down the group. However, the increase in density of transition elements of group 12 varies with temperature at a rate that is quite different from other transition elements. Hence the differences in the value of melting points and density changes by only a very small amount as you come down group 12 compared to other groups of transition elements.
Answer:
0.480 grams
Explanation:
Li₃N(s) + 3D₂O (L) --------------------------> ND₃(g) + 3LiOD (aq)
1 : 3 : 1 : 3
Number of moles (n) = Mass in gram/ Molar Mass
Mass of ND₃ = 160 mg
= 0.16 g
Molar mass of ND₃= [14 + (3 x 2.014 )]
= 14 + 6.042
= 20.042 g/mol
Number of moles of ND₃ = 0.16/20.042
= 0.007983 moles
From the reaction equation, the mole ratio between Heavy water (D₂O ) and ND₃ is 3: 1.
This implies that the number of moles of Heavy water (D₂O ) required
= 3 x 0.007983 moles
= 0.023949 moles
Molar mass of Heavy water (D₂O )= [(2.014 x 2) + 16]
= 20.028 g/mol
Mass in grams of Heavy water (D₂O )= Number of moles x Molar mass
= 0.023949 x 20.028
= 0.4797 grams
≈ 0.480 grams
Three of the functions of proteins are as antibodies, as enzymes and as messengers. As antibodies, they protect the cells from diseases ie they fight diseases. As enzymes, they regulate the chemical reactions within cells, and thirdly they transmit signals as messengers such as hormones do in co-ordinating biological processes. Proteins are so diverse because of their unique 3-D structures which their polymers form from the 20 amino acids available as their building blocks.
The answer that would best complete the given statement above is the term ATOM. <span>The smallest unit which maintains the physical properties of a compound is an ATOM. But for a compound, it would be molecule. Hope this answers your question.</span>
