What elements are being fused in a main sequence star?

Chemistry
1 answer:
mezya [45]3 years ago
7 0

Answer is: hydrogen (H).

Main sequence stars fuse hydrogen atoms to form helium atoms in their cores.

About 90 percent of the stars in the universe are main sequence stars.

Nuclear reaction is in the inner core of the Sun and hydrogen is conveted into helium.

The inner core is the central region of the Sun and all solar energy is produced in the core by nuclear fusion.

kotykmax [81]

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

The question is incomplete, however, I found a question very similar to this, and I'm assuming this is the question you are asking to answer. If it's not, please tell me which one it is. Here's a tip for you to get an idea of how to solve.

Picture 1, would be the original question. Picture 2 is the answer of it.

Now, This is a E1 reaction where this type of reactions are taking place in two steps. The first step is the formation of the carbon cation, this step is always slow. The secon step is the addition of a nucleophyle, or, in this case, formation of a pi bond, and we get a alkene.

Hope this can help you

What is the charge on the phosphorus atom in the polyatomic ion: PO4-3
oee [108]

+5

Explanation:

  The given radical is                 PO₄³⁻

To solve this problem, we need to understand what oxidation number entails.

The extent of the oxidation of each atom is expressed by the oxidation number.

Here are some rules for assigning them:

  • Elements in an uncombined state or elements that combines with one another, their oxidation number is zero.
  • The charge on an ion is its oxidation number
  • In an neutral compound, algebraic sum of all the oxidation numbers of all atoms is zero.
  • In a radical, the algebraic sum of all the oxidation numbers of the ions is equal to the charge on them.

Oxygen is known to have an oxidation number of -2;

                       

                          PO₄³⁻

 P + 4(-2) = -3

 P -8 = -3

  P = -3 + 8 = +5

The charge on phosphorus is +5

How do high levels of alkaline phosphatase indicate a bone abnormality
ELEN [110]

Answer:

Bones make an isoenzyme called alkaline phosphatase-2 or (ALP-2). Levels of this enzyme increase when bones are growing or bone cells are active. An alkaline phosphatase bone isoenzyme test can indicate abnormal levels of bone growth that may be associated with conditions such as: Paget's disease of bone.

Explanation:

ALP (alkaline phosphatase) is an enzyme found in your bloodstream. It helps break down proteins in the body and exists in different forms, depending on where it originates.

The bones and liver are the main sources of ALP, but some is also made in your bones, intestines, pancreas, and kidneys. In pregnant women, ALP is made in the placenta.

The ALP test can be helpful in the diagnosis of bone problems such as: rickets, a weakening or softening of the bones in children that’s most commonly due to a significant deficiency of vitamin D or calcium osteomalacia, a softening of the bones in adults usually due to significant vitamin D deficiency, but also possibly due to the body’s inability to process and use vitamin D properly.

Paget’s disease of the bone, a disorder causing major problems with bone destruction and regrowth

An alkaline phosphatase level test (ALP test) measures the amount of alkaline phosphatase enzyme in your bloodstream. The test requires a simple blood draw and is often a routine part of other blood tests.

Abnormal levels of ALP in the blood most often indicate a problem with your liver, gallbladder, or bones. However, they may also indicate malnutrition, kidney cancer tumors, intestinal issues, a pancreas problem, or a serious infection.

The normal range of ALP varies from person to person and depends on ones age, blood type, gender, and pregnancy.

The normal range for serum ALP level is 20 to 140 IU/L.

The normal range runs higher in children and decreases with age.

Calculate the vapor pressure of a solution made by dissolving 109 grams of glucose (molar mass = 180.2 g/mol in 920.0 ml of wate
Fynjy0 [20]
Given data: <span>molar mass = 180.2 g/mol in 920.0 ml of water at 25 °c.
                   </span><span>the vapor pressure of pure water at 25 °c is 23.76 mm hg. 
</span>Asked: <span>the vapor pressure of a solution made by dissolving 109 grams of glucose
</span><span>
Solution:
moles glucose = 109 g/ 180.2 g/mol=0.605 
mass water = 920 mL x 1 g/mL = 920 g 
moles water = 920 g/ 18.02 g/mol=51.1 
mole fraction water = 51.1 / 51.1 + 0.605 =0.988 
vapor pressure solution = 0.988 x 23.76 = 23.47 mm Hg</span>
