How are carbon-based molecules suited for sustaining life?

Chemistry
1 answer:
IrinaVladis [17]3 years ago
8 0

\huge\fcolorbox{red}{pink}{Answer ♥}

Life on Earth is based on carbon, likely because each carbon atom can form bonds with up to four other atoms simultaneously. This quality makes carbon well-suited to form the long chains of molecules that serve as the basis for life as we know it, such as proteins and DNA.

Hope it helps uh ✌️✌️✌️

1 What characteristic of an element determines how its atoms can bond with other<br> atoms?
Masja [62]

Answer:

Electrons

Explanation:

The electrons of the outermost energy level determine the energetic stability of the atom and its tendency to form chemical bonds with other atoms to form molecules. Under standard conditions, atoms fill the inner shells first, often resulting in a variable number of electrons in the outermost shell.

A metal cube has a mass of 20 g and a volume of 5 ml. What is the density? Is the cube made of pure aluminum? Explain your answe
Shtirlitz [24]

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of metal cube, m = 20 g

Volume of cube, V =5 mL

We need to find the density of the cube. Mass per unit volume equals density.

d=\dfrac{m}{V}\\\\d=\dfrac{20\ g}{5\ mL}\\\\d=4\ g/mL

So, the density of the cube is 4 g/ml.

We know that the density of Aluminium is 4 g/mL.

So, the cube is not Aluminium cube.
