<span>The word that should be filled in the blank in order to complete the sentence, "The ______ in the mouth secrete enzymes which help prepare the food for digestion in the stomach." The answer would be saliva. Saliva contains salivary amylase that helps soften the food. </span>
Answer:
B) H2SO4 (aq) + Ca(OH)2 (aq) → CaSO4 (aq) + 2 H2O(l)
Explanation:
A is a reaction between a salt FeCl3 and a base KOH
C is a n acid decomposing on it's own to form two products
D is mercury, a metal reacting with oxygen. Two elements reacting. Neither are an acid or a base
E. is an acid reacting with a metal to liberate hydrogen. There is no base
Answer:
Serine will be on the exterior of the globular protein while leucine on the interior of the globular proteins
Explanation:
The nature or solubility of the side cham determines the poition of amino acid on the globular protein and it is either hydrophilic or hydrophobic.
Serine is an hydrophilic amino acid and so it is position on the surface of the globular protein (Exterior)
While Leucine side chain is hydrophobic in nature is positioned on the interior of the globular protein.
Answer:
= 72900 years
Explanation:
- The half-life is the time taken by a radioactive material to decay by half the original amount.
- The half-life of plutonium-239 is 24300 years which means it takes 24300 years to decay by half the original amount.
To calculate the time taken for a mass of 8 kg to decay to 1 kg we use;
New mass = Original mass x (1/2) ^n, where n is the number of half-lives
Therefore;
1 kg = 8 kg × (1/2)^n
1/8 = (1/2)^n
solving for n;
n =3
Therefore;
Time = 3 × 24300 years
= 72900 years
It will, therefore, take 72900 years for 8 kg of plutonium-239 to decay to 1 kg.
Answer:
Option C. The same number of energy levels.
Explanation:
From the diagram given above, element (i) belong to group 2 while element (ii) belong to group 6.
Also, both element i and ii belong to the same period (i.e period 4). This simply means that both element i and ii have the same number of energy levels.
NOTE: Elements in the same period have the same number of shells of electrons which simply means they have the same energy levels.
