Answer:

ionic or covalent

Explanation:

The outermost electrons -- the valence electrons -- are able to interact with other atoms, and, depending on how those electrons interact with other the atoms, either an ionic or covalent bond is formed, and the atoms fuse together to form a molecule.

Describe the relationship between predator and prey in a balanced ecosystem.

Annette [7]

<h2>Relationship between predator and prey in a balanced ecosystem.</h2>

Predators grow along with their victims. Over time, prey animals are now developing and avoiding themselves to get eaten by their predators. Such tactics and modifications can take many forms that make their work easier, including disguise, mimicry, defense mechanisms, flexibility, distance, habits and even tool use.

Though fact an equilibrium appears to occur within an ecosystem between predators and prey, there are several factors which affect it, including the birth and death rates of predators and preys.

Why is water essential to living things? (1 pc

DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

Living organisms need water to survive. Many scientists even believe that if any extra-terrestrial exists, water must be present in their environments. All oxygen-dependent organisms need water to aid in the respiration process. Some organisms, such as fish, can only breathe in water. Other organisms require water to break down food molecules or generate energy during the respiration process. Water also helps many organisms regulate metabolism and dissolves compounds going into or out of the body.

Using the Brønsted-Lowry concept of acids and bases, identify the Brønsted-Lowry acid and base in each of the following reaction

Luden [163]

Answer:

1. HSO³⁻(aq) + H₂O(l) → H₂SO₃(aq) + OH⁻(aq)

The Brønsted-Lowry acid is H₂O and the Brønsted-Lowry base is HSO³⁻

2. (CH₃)₃N(g) + BCl₃(g) → (CH₃)₃NBCl₃(s)

There are no Brønsted-Lowry acids and bases in this reaction.

Explanation:

According to the Brønsted-Lowry concept, when an acid (HA) and a base (B) undergoes a chemical reaction, the acid (HA) loses a proton and forms its conjugate base (A⁻), whereas the base gains (B) the proton to form its conjugate acid (HB⁺).

The chemical equation for this reaction is:

HA + B ⇌ A⁻ + HB⁺

Given reactions:

1. HSO³⁻(aq) + H₂O(l) → H₂SO₃(aq) + OH⁻(aq)

The Brønsted-Lowry acid is H₂O and the Brønsted-Lowry base is HSO³⁻

Reason: In this reaction, the acid H₂O loses a proton and forms its conjugate base, OH⁻. Whereas, the base HSO³⁻ gains a proton to form its conjugate acid, H₂SO₃.

2. (CH₃)₃N(g) + BCl₃(g) → (CH₃)₃NBCl₃(s)

There are no Brønsted-Lowry acids and bases in this reaction.

Reason: In this reaction, there is no exchange of proton between the acid and the base.

The product of the nitration reaction will have a nitro group at which position with respect to the methyl group? Group of answe

zimovet [89]

Answer:

Mostly Para

Explanation:

First, let's assume that the molecule is the toluene (A benzene with a methyl group as radical).

Now the nitration reaction is a reaction in which the nitric acid in presence of sulfuric acid, react with the benzene molecule, to introduce the nitro group into the molecule. The nitro group is a relative strong deactiviting group and is metha director, so, further reactions that occur will be in the metha position.

Now, in this case, the methyl group is a weak activating group in the molecule of benzene, and is always ortho and para director for the simple fact that this molecule (The methyl group) is a donor of electrons instead of atracting group of electrons. Therefore for these two reasons, when the nitration occurs,it will go to the ortho or para position.

Now which position will prefer to go? it's true it can go either ortho or para, however, let's use the steric hindrance principle. Although the methyl group it's not a very voluminous and big molecule, it still exerts a little steric hindrance, and the nitro group would rather go to a position where no molecule is present so it can attach easily. It's like you have two doors that lead to the same place, but in one door you have a kid in the middle and the other door is free to go, you'll rather pass by the door which is free instead of the door with the kid in the middle even though you can pass for that door too. Same thing happens here. Therefore the correct option will be mostly para.
