Answer: The wire is still copper and does not change by cutting it

Explanation:

Democritus postulated that all materials were composed of these tiny particles called as "atomos".

Daltons postulates are:.

1. All matter is made of very tiny particles called atoms.

2. Atoms is indivisible.

3. Atoms of a given element are identical in mass and chemical properties.

4. Atoms of different elements have different masses and chemical properties.

5. Atoms combine in the ratio of small whole numbers to form compounds.

6. The relative number and kinds of atoms are constant in a given compound.

Thus when copper wire is cut into the smallest  possible pieces, the atoms were intact as they are indivisible and all atoms have same mass and chemical properties.Thus the wire is still copper and does not change by cutting it

The addition of phosphate to a chemical compound is called A. glycolysis. B. oxidation. C. reduction. D. phosphorylation.
stich3 [128]

Answer:

Option (D)

Explanation:

Phosphorylation can be simply defined as the addition of a phosphate group to an organic and inorganic molecule. This process helps in regulating the processes that occur in the cells. It leads to the growth and development of cells and this process is efficiently carried out with the help of enzymes like kinase. It also plays an important role in transferring the signals within the cells, synthesis, and functioning of proteins within the cells, and storing as well as releasing of energy.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).

What is the volume of a sample of ammonia gas (NH3) if it contains 0.23 moles?​
LekaFEV [45]

The volume of a sample of ammonia gas : 5.152 L

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

0.23 moles of ammonia

Required

The volume of a sample

Solution

Assumed on STP

Conditions at T 0 ° C and P 1 atm are stated by STP (Standard Temperature and Pressure). At STP, Vm is 22.4 liters / mol.

So for 0.23 moles :

= 0.23 x 22.4 L

= 5.152 L

What determines the amount of chemical energy a substance has?
Ratling [72]


Chemical energy  is the kind of energy stored in the bonds formed by atoms and molecules in chemical compounds and elements.  This energy is  released during a chemical  reaction and  heat is often given out in the process. These kind of reactions where heat is given out as a by product are called exothermic reactions.

The major factor that determines how much chemical energy a substance has is the mass of that substance. Mass is defined as the amount of matter in a substance.

The higher  the mass of a substance, the more concentrated that substance is and subsequently the greater the number of atoms and molecules.

Logically, the higher the number of atoms and molecules  then the greater the number of bonds in that substance and subsequently the more the amount of chemical energy  stored therein.

Is this equation completely balanced? 2C8H8 + 25O2 8CO2 + 18H2O No, because the number of carbon, hydrogen &amp; oxygen atoms on
Sergio039 [100]
<span>So to make it clear let's break the equation down species by species and assess the number of each species on bothe sides of the equation:
                   2C</span>₈H₈  +  25O₂   →   8CO₂ +  18H₂<span>O
LHS:  C - 16                                           RHS:  C - 8
          H - 16                                                     H - 36
          O - 50                                                    O - 34

Thus based on that it is evident that the equation is not quite balanced.  This therefore means a "</span><span>No, because the number of carbon, hydrogen & oxygen atoms on both sides of the equation are not equal."

</span>The actual balance equation would be C₈H₈  +  10O₂   →   8CO₂ +  4H₂O
