Answer:
- <em>During the polymerization of a 20 monomer-long cellulose molecule,</em> <u>19 molecules of water are released.</u>
<u></u>
Explanation:
In simple terms, <em>cellulose </em>is the biopolymer formed by many glucose units. This is cellulose is the polymer and glucose is the monomer.
To have a <em>20 monomer-long cellulose molecule</em>, 20 monomers have been chemically bonded by reacting 19 times, as it is explained in the next paragrpahs, and so 19 molecules of water have been released.
You can imaging the polymerization process as a step-by-step reaction in which the first step is the condensation reaction of one glucose molelecule to produce a 2 monomer-long chain, with the release of one molecule of water: the second step would be the condensation reaction between the 2 monomer-long chain with another glucose molecule, with the release of an additional molecule of water, and so on, until 19 condensation reactions happen, to obtain the 20 monomer-long cellulose molecule.
Condensation is the loss of water in a chemical reaction.
When two glucose molecules react together, condensation occurs. One OH group from each glucose molecule come together, the OH from one glucose molecule combines with the H part of the OH from the other glucose molecule, to form H₂O (water that is released).
The two glucose molecules (monomers) will form one bigger molecule where the two glucose monomers are bonded through the oxygen atom that did not form part of the water molecule released.
Then, a 20-monomer chain means 19 condenstation reactions, with the release of 19 molecules of water.
Answer= C) CN contains a covalent bond.
Weight of the balloon = 2.0 g
Six weights each of mass 30.0 g is added to the balloon.
Total mass of the balloon = 2.0 g + 6*30.0 g = 182 g
Density of salt water = 1.02 g/mL
Calculating the volume from mass and density:
Converting the volume from mL to cubic cm:
Assuming the balloon to be a sphere,
Volume of the sphere = 
π
r = 3.49 cm
Radius of the balloon = 3.49 cm
Diameter of the balloon = 2 r = 2*3.49 cm = 6.98cm
Answer:
sodium hexachloroplatinate(IV)- Na2[PtCl6]
dibromobis(ethylenediamine)cobalt(III) bromide- [Co(en)2Br2]Br
pentaamminechlorochromium(III) chloride-[Cr(NH3)5Cl]Cl2
Explanation:
The formulas of the various coordination compounds can be written from their names taking cognisance of the metal oxidation state as shown above. The oxidation state of the metal will determine the number of counter ions present in the coordination compound.
The number ligands are shown by subscripts attached to the ligand symbols. Remember that bidentate ligands such as ethylenediamine bonds to the central metal ion via two donors.
Answer:
The term science fiction was popularized, if not invented, in the 1920s by one of the genre's principal advocates, the American publisher Hugo Gernsback. The Hugo Awards, given annually since 1953 by the World Science Fiction Society, are named after him.
