Answer:

C. Fluorine because the model has 9 protons which is represented by the atomic number

Explanation:

We usually identify an element by the number of protons in them. The number of protons is the atomic number of an atom.

Every atom has a specific number of protons in them.
This number of protons is the atomic number.
According to the periodic law, atoms are arranged on the periodic table based on their atomic number.
The given fluorine atom has 9 protons which represents the atomic number of the atom.
This way, the given number clearly shows the right model for identifying the chemical specie.

The nucleoside adenosine exists in a protonated form with a pKa of 3.8. The percentage of the protonated form at pH 4.8 is close

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

Ok:

Explanation:

So, you can use the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation for this:

pH = pKa + log( $A^-/HA$ ) where A- is the conjugate base of the acid. In other words, A- is the deprotonated form and HA is the protonated.

We can solve that

1 = log( $A^-/HA\\$ ) and so 10 = $A^-/HA$ or 10HA = A-. For every 1 protonated form of adenosine (HA), there are 10 A-. So, the percent in the protonated form will be 1(1+10) or 1/11 which is close to 9 percent.

How it looks. basically the thing that tells you how it change. for example if an ice cube was melted (heat), it only changed physically not chemically as the h20 molecules are still there. however lets say you burn woos— you cant get that would back. its ash now and it has changed chemically.

Explain why chloro acetic acid<br>strong and than acetic acid<br>

Basile [38]

Chloroacetic acid is stronger than acetic acid because of the electron-withdrawing effect of chlorine. This effect is caused by the electronegativity.
