Answer:

Explanation:

sodium has mass number 23 and atomic number 11 so number of protons =number of electrons =atomic number which is 11 and number of neutrons=mass number-number of protons =23-11=12

What's the balanced equation for cellular respiration?

Alik [6]

<span>Correct answer is:

$C_{6}H_{12}O_6+6O_{2}\Rightarrow 6CO_{2}+6H_{2}O+energy$

But how to get there?

Let's start with simple explanation of what exactly is cellular respiration.

Cellular respiration is a multistage biochemical oxidation process of organic substances when prime product is energy (ATP - adenosine triphosphate) and other are released waste products. Cellular respiration takes place even if other metabolic processes are stopped, but cellular respiration may differ in particular organism groups.Some reactions during whole process of cellular respiration are similar in all types of living organisms.

Cellular respiration is prime indication of declining living processes.Only viruses which are on the edge of living organism and chemical particle are not performing cellular respiration.But to the point :P

In cellular respiration all substrates which are in the cell might be organic, but mostly we are using sugar oxidation - glucose in the presence of oxygen. Chemical formula of sugar looks like this:

$C_{6}H_{12}O_6$

Oxygen is just

$O_2$

so for now we have just part of the equation:

$C_{6}H_{12}O_6+O_{2}\Rightarrow$

But what would be on the right hand side?

It's quite simple, remember equation of full combustion? If we want to burn something we need oxygen like in the equation, so the product of this equation would be carbon dioxide, water and of course energy (ATP).Carbon dioxide formula looks like this:

$CO_{2}$

As a reminder water formula:

$H_{2}O$

Full formula would look like that:

$C_{6}H_{12}O_6+O_{2}\Rightarrow\ CO_{2}+H_{2}O+energy$

But still as you see this equation is unbalanced, after balancing it would like that:

$C_{6}H_{12}O_6+6O_{2}\Rightarrow 6CO_{2}+6H_{2}O+energy$

At the end I would like to explain one more thing. Energy which has been released during this process is part of high-energy connection which might be used to perform chemical reactions in the cell or to move organism for example in muscles. We need to remember that production of ATP is not happening with 100% efficiency and part of this energy is released as heat.</span>

What is the reactant(s) in the chemical equation below?

butalik [34]

Answer:

C. 3CO(g) + Fe2O3(s)

Explanation:

The substance(s) to the hath left of the arrow in a chemical equation art hath called reactants. A reactant is a substance yond is presenteth at the starteth of a chemical reaction. The substance(s) to the right of the arrow art hath called products. A product is a substance yond is presenteth at the endeth of a chemical reaction

So in this example, 3CO(g) + Fe2O3(s) art the reactants.

The 2Fe(S) + 3CO2(G) art the products.

100!!!POINTS PLZ HELP Explain (on the molecular level) what pumping a tire with air will do to

Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Gases are easily compressed. We can see evidence of this in Table 1 in Thermal Expansion of Solids and Liquids, where you will note that gases have the largest coefficients of volume expansion. The large coefficients mean that gases expand and contract very rapidly with temperature changes. In addition, you will note that most gases expand at the same rate, or have the same β. This raises the question as to why gases should all act in nearly the same way, when liquids and solids have widely varying expansion rates.

The answer lies in the large separation of atoms and molecules in gases, compared to their sizes, as illustrated in Figure 2. Because atoms and molecules have large separations, forces between them can be ignored, except when they collide with each other during collisions. The motion of atoms and molecules (at temperatures well above the boiling temperature) is fast, such that the gas occupies all of the accessible volume and the expansion of gases is rapid. In contrast, in liquids and solids, atoms and molecules are closer together and are quite sensitive to the forces between them.

Explain and describe how the photoelectric effect occurs on an atomic level in terms of protons, neutrons, and electrons

grin007 [14]

Answer:

The photoelectric effect is the emission of electrons when electromagnetic radiation, such as light, hits a material. Electrons emitted in this manner are called photoelectrons.

Based on the wave model of light, physicists predicted that increasing light amplitude would increase the kinetic energy of emitted photoelectrons, while increasing the frequency would increase measured current.

the element aluminum forms a cation with the charge fill in the blank 2 . the symbol for this ion is , and the name is fill in t

shtirl [24]

The element aluminum forms a cation with the charge of +3. The symbol for this ion is Al³⁺, and the name is aluminum ion. The number of electrons in this ion 10.

Ions are formed when an atom gains or loses electrons.

Metals form positive ions by a loss of electrons whereas non-metals form negative ions by gaining electrons.

The aluminum ion is formed when aluminum loses three electrons to form Al³⁺ ion which has 10 electrons.

in conclusion, ions are formed by a gain or loss of electrons.
