Chemistry
1 answer:
Fiesta28 [93]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Overall, the electric charge of the compound {\rm NaOH} is 0.

Explanation:

Sodium hydroxide {\rm NaOH} is an ionic compound. This compound is made up of a large number of sodium ions {\rm Na^{+}} and hydroxide ions {\rm OH^{-}}.

As the superscripts suggest, each sodium ion {\rm Na^{+}} carries a charge of (+1) while each hydroxide ion {\rm OH^{-}} carries a charge of (-1).

The two types of ions are paired up at a one-to-one ratio within {\rm NaOH}. Charges on these ions would balance one another, such that the overall electric charge on the compound {\rm NaOH}\! would be 0.

Why does the surface of the oocyte change when the first sperm cell touches the oocyte?
Anestetic [448]

To prevent more than one sperm from entering the egg.

What is oocyte?

An oocyte , or ovocyte is a female gametocyte or germ cell involved in reproduction. In other words, it is an immature ovum, or egg cell. An oocyte is produced in a female fetus in the ovary during female gametogenesis. The female germ cells produce a primordial germ cell (PGC), which then undergoes mitosis, forming oogonia. During oogenesis, the oogonia become primary oocytes. An oocyte is a form of genetic material that can be collected for cryoconservation.

When the sperm and egg fuse it triggers a release of calcium ions, which cause the cortical granules inside the egg to fuse with the plasma membrane. As they fuse, these granules release their contents outside of the cell, toward the remains of the zona pellucida.

What type of microscope has a magnification less than 300x but allows you to view objects in 3D?
Sindrei [870]
The Stereo microscope, also called a dissecting microscope, has two optical paths at slightly different angles allowing the image to be viewed three-dimensionally under the lenses. Stereo microscopes magnify at low power, typically between 10X and 200X.
