A. 6 NaOH + 2(NH4)3 PO4 -----> 2Na PO4 + 6H2O + 6NH3
b. C2 H6 O + 3O2 ----> 2CO2 + 3H2O
As we move down the group, the metallic bond becomes more stable and the formation of forming covalent bond decreases down the group due to the large size of elements.
Covalent and metallic bonding leads to higher melting points. Due to a decrease in attractive forces from carbon to lead there is a drop in melting point.
Carbon forms large covalent molecules than silicon and hence has a higher melting point than silicon.
Similarly, Ge also forms a large number of covalent bonds and has a smaller size as compared to that of Sn. Hence melting point decreases from Ge to Sn.
The order will be C>Si>Ge>Pb>Sn.

Answer:
The fossil evidence of both an ocean and a forest can be found at different depths in the same location because there might have been a presence of both an ocean and a forest at the same location at different times in the history of Earth.
Explanation:
It is clear from various studies that the Earth has had a diverse geologic history in which events like drastic climate changes, upsurging of oceans, rapid desertification, etc., have taken place many times.
Thus, the possibility of an ocean and forest having shared a single location at different times in the history of Earth cannot be neglected.
Answer:
The concentration of protons affects an enzyme's folded structure and reactivity.
Explanation:
Enzymes act within narrow pH limits (optimal reaction pH). Since most enzymes have a protein structure, the variation in pH or temperature affects their enzymatic activity.
To catalyze a reaction, an enzyme binds to one or more reagent molecules. These molecules are the substrates of the enzyme.
In some reactions, a substrate breaks into several products. In others, two substrates join together to create a larger molecule or to exchange parts. In fact, for any biological reaction that can occur to you, there is probably an enzyme to accelerate it.
The part of the enzyme where the substrate binds is called the active site.
The amino acid residues of the active site often have acidic or basic properties that are important for catalysis. Changes in pH can affect these residues and make binding with the substrate difficult.
