Answer:

Chromosome is basically made of DNA and proteins.

Explanation:

Chromosomes contain thread like structure present inside the nucleus of the cell.Chromosome is generally made of DNA and proteins(Histone proteins).

      The DNA is wrapped around the basic protein histone to provide support  the chromosome structure.

    The  wrapping of DNA around the histone proteins helps in the formation of nucleosome which helps in the packing of DNA inside the chromosome.

Answer:

4. Principal and Azimuthal (subsidiary) quantum number

5.Principal, Azimuthal (subsidiary), and magnetic quantum number

6. 10 electrons

7. 32 electrons

8. 36 electrons

Explanation:

4. Principal and Azimuthal (subsidiary) quantum number because in 4d, 4 represent principal quantum number and d- represents azimuthal quantum number (having l- value as 3)

5.Principal, Azimuthal (subsidiary), and magnetic quantum number are the first three because 2 stands for principal, s-for azimuthal (l=0) and magnetic quantum number for s- orbital= 0

6. 10 electrons, because for sublevel with l= 3, is a d-sub-level, and d- can take 10-electrons

7. 32 electrons, using the relationship 2×n^2 for the maximum number of electrons in a shell,

,n= 4 , hence 2×4^2= 32

8. 36 electrons, because n=4 and n= 3 can have the maximum configuration of [Ar]4s^2 3d^10 4p^6

This will sum up to 36- electrons, since Argon has 18 -electrons.

18+2+10+6=36 electrons

Automobile bodies contain significant amounts of iron. The iron is protected by the addition of zinc. This is called galvanizati
Oksana_A [137]

<u>Answer:</u> The balanced chemical equation is written below.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Galvanization is defined as the process in which a protective layer of zinc is applied to iron or steel to prevent the metal from rusting.

Zinc prevents the oxidation of iron and acts as a reducing agent in the process.

The half reaction for the process follows:

<u>Oxidation half reaction:</u>  Zn\rightarrow Zn^{2+}+2e^-

<u>Reduction half reaction:</u>  Fe^{2+}+2e^-\rightarrow Fe

Net chemical equation:  Zn+Fe^{2+}\rightarrow Zn^{2+}+Fe

Hence, the balanced chemical equation is written above.
