Question

Good evidence for sodium water

Answer 1

Answer: Understanding the timing and processes of synthesis and racemization of amino acids on asteroid parent bodies is crucial to showing how amino acids in living organisms on Earth grew to be predominantly left-handed. It has been postulated that racemization can occur rapidly depending on several factors, including the pH of the aqueous solution.Here, within the Tagish Lake carbonaceous chondrite, we perform a nanoscale geochemical analysis of a framboidal magnetite grain to show that the interlocking crystal structure formed within a sodium-rich, alkaline fluid environment. We study, in particular, on the discovery of Na-enriched subgrain boundaries and layers of Ca and Mg nanometer-scale surrounding individual framboids.
