Answer: Positive effects: mass production of fertilizers, alkaline cleansers, refrigerant gas, dyes, explosives
Negative effects: heath problems, negative effects on soil organisms and soil organic matter, imbalances to the nitrogen cycle, high fossil fuel energy inputs, production of deadly weapons
Explanation:
The Haber process (also called Haber Bosch process) is used to produce ammonia from nitrogen and hydrogen under the high pressure. Basically, it's an artificial nitrogen fixation process. This method has both positive and negative effects on modern society.
Positive sides: ammonia is mainly used for mass production of fertilizer, which allows more food for everyone. It can be used for production of alkaline cleansers, refrigerant gas, dyes and explosives. Ammonia is also used in production of synthetic polymers, due to its role in the manufacturing of cyanide.
Negative sides: ammonia is a toxic gas, it can irritate eyes and lungs. Because of that, the excess nitrogen in soil and water coming from synthetic fertilizers can cause health problems. It is harmful for humans and animals, but it can also be harmful for plants. Environmental factors are also important. Because of the mass fixation, there is imbalance in the earth’s nitrogen cycle. Also, fossil fuels are used as a source of power for machinery in Haber's process, which increases emissions into the atmosphere. And, at least ammonia is a major component of weapons including great number of bombs.
Answer:
The correct option is C.
Explanation:
Carbohydrates are one of the macro molecules that are consumed by living organisms. The end product of carbohydrate is glucose. Glucose is a very important fuel that the body cells used to produce energy, which they use to carry out their daily activities. Glucose is also known as blood sugar and it is the only fuel that living cells can use for the production of ATP. Other food macro molecules such as lipids and proteins can also be converted to glucose if there is a need for that. Glucose is always stored in the body in form of glycogen.
The statement given in option C about glucose is wrong because glucose is a monosaccharide and not a disaccharide.
Answer:
The symbol of each element is, Ne, Na, Mg, and Al.
Explanation:
Below is the list of elements that has an atomic mass of less than 19.3 u.
The atomic mass of Neon is 20.1797 u and the atomic number is 10.
The atomic mass of Sodium is 22.989769 u and the atomic number is 11.
The atomic mass of Magnesium is 24.305 u and the atomic number is 12.
The atomic mass of Aluminium is 26.981539 u and the atomic number is 13.
Here, the symbol of each element is, Ne, Na, Mg, and Al.
It's called a compound because different elements are held together by a chemical bond.
Yes thats true! You always have to think about the question or project before you start a science experiment! :)
