Answer:

Primordial soup

Explanation:

The primordial soup is a theoretical mixture of organic compounds (water vapor, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, methane and ammonia) that may have given rise to life on Earth. When one wants to explain how living organisms appeared on Earth, the theory of primordial soup is often used, which seems to be the most plausible scientific explanation.

Conditions on Earth in its early days were very different from current conditions. The atmosphere had no oxygen, being rich in hydrogen, ammonia, methane and water. According to the primordial soup theory, these substances were prepared to produce amino acids, which would have been able to combine to create organic material that, eventually, could have given rise to life. In order for this to happen, it was necessary to have a catalyst; the amino acids did not appear spontaneously.

The only molecules that can be considered "organic" are methane and carbon dioxide, but these are abiotic and not considered fundamental in the biochemical molecular structure of the first organism.

The likely designation of the list of molecules is "primordial soup," but the proposition that these somehow collected, merged and formed anything associated with the first organism is naturalist mythology, as there are no naturalist processes capable of selectively formulating the required biochemical assemblies needed to construct a functioning organism.

Abiogenesis, the naturalist myth of origin of life is based on chemical evolution, as the Darwinian myth of "warm little ponds," Oparin-Haldane primordial soup, and Miller-Urey test tube goo. No naturalist processes can assemble all the required biochemically required compounds required for the the origin of life.

What is an alkali metal with fewer than 10 protons in its nucleus?
Trava [24]

Answer:

            Lithium

Explanation:

                  Alkali metals are group of metals which are present in first group of periodic table. As we know atomic number is equal to number of protons contained by a particular element. Therefore, the alkali metals along with there number of protons are listed below;

Alkali Metal                                         Number of Protons

Lithium                                                               3

Sodium                                                             11

Potassium                                                         19

Rubidium                                                         37

Cesium                                                             55

Francium                                                          87

Hence, it is cleared from above table that Lithium is having fewer protons than 10.

Hii pls help me!! <br>even if u know how to do one, it's okk <br>anything helps ​
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Explanation:

a) HNO2(aq) = HNO3(aq) + H2O(l) +NO(g)

b) SoCl2 (l) + H2O (l) = So2(g) + 2HCl(aq)

c) CH4 (g) + 2O2(g) = Co2 (g) + 2H2O(g)

d) 3CuO(s) + 2NH3 (g) = 3Cu(s) + 3H2O (l) + N2(g)

<span>Answer: H-C-N H-N-C C-H-N Notice that C-H-N is the same as N-H-C just written backwards. ( i.e. they have the same connectivtiy.) You can exclude the last one with H in the middle since H has two bonds and 4 electrons around it. At this point you couldn't differentiate between the first two, so I would give you the connectivity in such a problem, which in this case is H-C-N.</span>
