Answer:
Metals are good conductors of heat and electricity, and are malleable (they can be hammered into sheets) and ductile (they can be drawn into wire). Most of the metals are solids at room temperature, with a characteristic silvery shine (except for mercury, which is a liquid). Nonmetals are (usually) poor conductors of heat and electricity, and are not malleable or ductile; many of the elemental nonmetals are gases at room temperature, while others are liquids and others are solids.
Explanation:
Answer:
CH3CHO+H2O → CH3OCH3 - addition
CH,CICH CI + Zn → C2H4 + ZnCl2 - elimination
CH3CH3Br + OH – CH3CH3OH + Br - substitution
2CH2COOH >>(CH3CO)20 + H20 - condensation
Explanation:
An addition reaction is a reaction in which a specie is added across the double bond as we can see in CH3CHO+H2O → CH3OCH3.
In an elimination reaction, a small molecule is lost from a saturated compound to form the corresponding unsaturated compound as in CH,CICH CI + Zn → C2H4 + ZnCl2
In a substitution reaction, a chemical moiety replaces another in a molecule as in; CH3CH3Br + OH – CH3CH3OH + Br .
A condensation reaction is in which two molecules are joined together to form a bigger molecule as in; 2CH2COOH >>(CH3CO)20 + H20.
The shape of a protein molecule resembles BEADS ON A STRING.
Proteins are macro molecules that are formed from amino acids. There are different types of amino acids, thus, different amino acids combine together to form different types of protein. This means that, proteins are formed from sequences of amino acids; they are long chains of different amino acids, that is why, they are likened to beads on string.
The structures of proteins are in three dimensions, they are primary, secondary and tertiary structures. The primary structure refers to the sequence of the amino acids in a protein. The amino acids in the primary structure are linked together by peptide bonds.
Answer: The beaker will not tip over when placed on the hot plate
Justification:
Since beakers have flat surface bottoms (usually and this is the condition to use them for this particular application) they can be placed safely on the hot plate without the risk that the they tip over.
Beakers are wide mouth cylindrical vessels used in laboratories to store, mix and heat liquids. Most are made of glass, in which case the glass is resistant to the flame and does not break when exposed to high temperatures or when is heated by direct contact on a hot plate.
So, their safe shape (flat bottom) that makes them stable, along with their ability to withstand high temperatures, make them suitable to heat solutions in laboratories.
Electronegativity is the tendency of an element to attract the bonded electrons towards itself. In a group, as the atomic radius increases electronegativity decreases as the outermost electron is far away from the nuclear attraction. In a period, the atomic size decreases. So, the effective nuclear charge experienced by the outermost shell increases. Therefore, across a period the electronegativity increases as the increased effective nuclear charge leads to the attraction of bonded electrons with greater ease.
Therefore the correct answer is <u>c</u>, electronegativity tends to increases across a period.
