Answer:
Carbon is found in the hydrosphere dissolved in ocean water and lakes. Carbon is used by many organisms to produce shells. Marine plants use cabon for photosynthesis. The organic matter that is produced becomes food in the aquatic ecosystem.
Answer:
Its because non-metals are unable to break the bond between the H and O ion and cannot reduce hydrogen by donating electrons
Answer:
Populations have genetic variation.
The environment changes.
Organisms must have specific traits in order to survive and reproduce.
Explanation:
Natural selection provides an advantage during an adverse condition for organisms that have a rich genetic variation in their population.
Also, environmental changes induced natural selection whereby organisms must adapt to changes around them.
For organisms to survive, they must have specific traits that gives them a competitive reproductive advantage.
Answer:
[Co(NH3)5CO3]I3
Explanation:
The naming of coordination compounds follows certain rules specified by IUPAC. Usually, the name of the complex makes it quite easy to deduce its structure.
"Pentaamine" means that there are five NH3 ligands as shown in the structure. The ligand carbonato is CO3^2-. It has no prefix attached to it in the IUPAC name of the complex hence there is only one carbonato ligand present(recall that the complex has a coordination number of six). I did not enclose it within parenthesis as required in the question.
Lastly the III that appeared after the metal name "cobalt" shows its oxidation state. The iodide counter ions must then be 3 in number in order to satisfy this primary valency of the metal hence the inclusion of I3 in the structure of the complex.
