An example of an atom that has no charge is one that has a. 2 protons, 2 electrons, and 1 neutron.
To be neutral an atom must have the <em>same number</em> of protons (+) and electrons (-).
Only then will the <em>charges cancel</em> and give a neutral atom.
Answer: the best statement is 1 (Vitamin B12 (cobolamin) is missing from the vegan diet and very low in the lactovegetarian diet.)
Explanation:
Vitamin B12( cobalamin) is a water soluble vitamin that is essential in the formation of red blood cells. It also serves as a coenzyme in the metabolic reaction of the body. Such reaction includes:
- the remethylation of methionine from homocysteine which is catalyzed by methionine synthase and requires methylcobalamin.
The deficiency of vitamin B12 can lead to the following:
- elevated homocysteine ,
- an increase in methylmalonate
This is due to deficiencies in methionine synthase and methylmalonic acid mutase, respectively in individuals on vegan diet for several years.
Vegans are vegetarians that don't include diary or animal products in their meals. This predisposes them to lack of Vitamin B12. Dairy products provide some vitamin B12 in the lactovegetarian diet. Therefore statement 1 is the correct answer, thanks.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
The oxidation number of Sulphur in SO4^2- is;
x + 4(-2) = -2
x - 8 = -2
x = -2 + 8
x = 6
Now,
the oxidation number of sulphur in H2SO3 is
2 (1) + x + 3(-2) = 0
2 + x -6 = 0
-4 + x = 0
x = 4
Hence, the oxidation number of sulphur changed from +6 to +4 which signifies gain of two electrons as shown in option C.
The fire triangle is composed of
1) heat
2) fuel
3) oxidizing agent (oxygen)
Types of fire extinguishers:
1) Water and Foam - <span> extinguish the fire by taking away the </span>heat<span> element of the fire triangle. Foam agents separate the </span>oxygen<span> element from the other elements.</span>
2) Carbon dioxide - <span>extinguish fire by taking away the </span>oxygen<span> element of the fire triangle and also be removing the </span>heat<span> with a very cold discharge.</span>
3) Dry Chemical - <span>extinguish the fire primarily by interrupting the </span>chemical reaction<span> of the fire triangle.</span>
4) Wet Chemical - <span>extinguishes the fire by removing the heat of the fire triangle and prevents re-ignition by creating a barrier between the </span>oxygen<span> and </span>fuel<span> elements</span>
5) Clean Agent - <span>extinguish the fire by interrupting the </span>chemical reaction<span> of the fire triangle</span>
6) Dry Powder - extinguish the fire by separating thefuel<span> from the </span>oxygen<span> element or by removing the </span>heat<span> element of the fire triangle</span>
7) Water Mist - <span>extinguish the fire by taking away the </span>heatelement of the fire triangle
8) Cartridge Operated Dry Chemical - extinguish the fire primarily by interrupting the chemical reaction<span> of the fire triangle</span>
