where do the electrons that are excited by the energy in sunlight first come from?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Pigments in the light-harvesting complex pass light energy to two special chlorophyll a molecules in the reaction center. The light excites an electron from the chlorophyll a pair, which passes to the primary electron acceptor. The excited electron must then be replaced.

Explanation:

Answer 2

During photosynthesis,the electrons that are excited by the energy in sunlight first come from chlorophyll pigment present in the leaves.

What is photosynthesis?

It is defined as a process by which plants and other photosynthetic organisms convert the light energy in to chemical energy  through the process of cellular respiration.

Some of the energy which is converted  is stored in molecules of carbohydrates like sugar and starches  which are made up of from carbon dioxide and water . Photosynthetic organisms which can perform photosynthesis  are algae and cyanobacteria. Photosynthesis is largely responsible for producing and maintaining the content of oxygen in earth's atmosphere.

The process begins with proteins absorbing light energy  which are called reaction centers and contain a green pigment which is called chlorophyll . In plants ,these pigments are present inside organelles called chloroplasts while in bacteria they are present in plasma membrane.

A fictitious element X is composed of 10.0 percent of the isotope 55 X, 20.0 percent of the
isotope 56 X, and 70.0 percent of the isotope 57 X. Estimate the atomic mass of element X.

Answers

Answer:

56.6 g/mol.

Explanation:

Assuming here that we have 100 atoms of each element. The percentage tells us that we have 10 atoms of the 55 isotope, 20 of the 56, and 70 of the 57.  

So the total is 10*55 + 20*56 + 70*57 = 5,660. And to get the average, we just divide by the total number of atoms (100).  

Atomic mass = 5660/100 = 56.6

Water quality tests show the presence of a single heavy metal in the drinking water pulled from a local river. Residents are suffering from numerous stomach ailments and are showing signs of long-term kidney damage. The residents of the next town, down river from the first town, seem to be unaffected. Water quality tests in the river by the second town show two types of heavy metals at acceptable legal limits in the water. One of the metals is the same as the one in the first town. What can scientists infer about the possible reason for the illnesses appearing in the first town but not the second?

One metal causes an acute effect, compared to the other.
One metal causes a chronic effect, compared to the other.
The heavy metals have a synergistic relationship when combined.
The heavy metals have an antagonistic relationship when combined.

Phosphorus

Answers

Answer: D. P-3

Explanation:

The most likely ion of Phosphorous is P³⁻ (group 15) since gaining three electrons is the most energetically favorable way for it to follow the octet rule.

Because the charge on ions is equivalent to their oxidation state, then -3 is the most likely oxidation number of Phosphorous.

Explanation:

You should look at the perdoic table to for extra help

The boiling points and melting points of the given elements does not support the claim that elements of the same group have similar physical properties.

What are boiling point and melting point?

The boiling point of a substance is the temperature at which it changes from liquid state to gaseous state. Melting point is the temperature at which the substance changes from solid to liquid state.

Elements in the same group shows similar physical and chemical properties. But from the boiling and melting point we cant say that they are in the same group.

Elements in a group shows a trend in boiling point and melting point but cannot be distinguished with this from other groups.

Hence, boiling point and melting point of the elements do no support for the similar properties in a group.
