Answer:
The mouth begins the process of digestion by mechanically breaking food into smaller pieces.
Explanation:
Digestion is a crucial process that involves the break down of complex food molecules into simpler ones that are assimilable by the body. The process of digestion in humans, for example, is said to begin in the MOUTH where the food enters through.
The mouth via the use of teeth helps the initially break down the food particles using mechanical/physical method. This further helps the break down of the food into tiny particles before they are acted on enzymatically.
explain what you understand by valency, give examples
Answer:
Valency is defined as the number of hydrogen atoms which combine directly or indirectly with one atom of an element.
Example:
One atom of nitrogen combines with three atoms of hydrogen to form ammonia gas. So, the valency of nitrogen is 3.
A gas initially has a volume of 300. mL at a pressure of 1.0 atm, what will the
new volume be if the pressure is doubled? (assume constant temperature)
Which represents a balanced nuclear equation?
Describe the trends in properties of chlorides across period 3 .Their formula .Their state .Their volatility .Their structure .The ph of aqueous chloride solution
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
Period 3 elements include; Na, Mg, Al, Si, P,S,Cl and Ar
Across the period, the chlorides of the elements change from solid to gas. The chlorides of metals are solid while the chlorides of non metals are gaseous.
Also, the chlorides become more volatile across the period. The formulas of the chlorides change from MCl to MCl2 to MCl3 to MCl4, MCl5 and MCl6 respectively across the period where M is a period 3 element.
The pH of the solutions of chlorides of period 3 elements change from neutral to acidic across the period. The pH of the chlorides of metals are neutral while the chlorides of the nonmetals usually yield acid solutions.
What is the amount of sodium hydroxide, NaOH, in 4.6 g? Use the values given for
the atomic mass of Na, H, and O.
6
Na = 22.989 770 u
H = 1.007 94u
0 = 15.99944
9
a) 0.19 mol
12
b) 0.12 mol
15
c) 1.8 x 102 mol
d) 0.20 mol
Answer: 0.12 Mol
Explanation: Molecular mass of NaOH is = 39,997 g/mol which is Atomic mass of Na + Atomic Mass of H + Atomic mass of O
4.6g / 39.997g/mol = 0.12 mol
A seais usually defined as A.A body of freshwater that is not connected to the ocean B. A body of freshwater that is connected to the ocean C. A body of salt water that is not connected to the ocean D. Body of salt water that is connected to the ocean
Answer:
D. Body of salt water that is connected to the ocean
Explanation:
An ocean is a body of salt water which covers approximately 70% of the Earth's surface. About 97% of the Earth's water is comprised of ocean and as such it is the most prominent and defined feature of the Earth. There are basically four (4) categories of an oceanic basin and these are;
1. The Pacific ocean.
2. The Artic ocean.
3. The Atlantic ocean.
4. The Indian ocean.
A sea is usually defined as a body of salt water that is connected to the ocean and are surrounded (enclosed) by land partially.
Basically, a sea is formed where a land and an ocean meet and as a result, an ocean is usually bigger than a sea.
Some examples of seas around the world are Red sea, Mediterranean sea, Sargasso sea, Caribbean sea, Baltic sea, Caspian sea, Chuckchi sea, etc.

Check all that indicate a chemical change. Check all that apply. Group of answer choices aqueous solutions of silver nitrate and sodium chloride turn cloudy after mixing aqueous solutions of hydrochloric acid and sodium hydrogen carbonate produces bubbles on mixing Sodium hydroxide is mixed with water and the container feels warmer Water is added to orange juice is the color becomes lighter. No answer text provided. ice melts on a bench top at room temperature
Answer:
aqueous solutions of silver nitrate and sodium chloride turn cloudy after mixing aqueous solutions of hydrochloric acid and sodium hydrogen carbonate produces bubbles on mixing Sodium hydroxide is mixed with water and the container feels warmer
Explanation:
A chemical change involves the formation of new substances. Also heat is absorbed or released in a chemical change. Another name for a chemical change is a chemical reaction.
In the first case, a reaction of the sort;
AgNO3(aq) + NaCl(aq) ---> AgCl(s) + NaNO3(aq)
The cloudy solution is due to the formation of AgCl precipitate.
In the second case, a reaction of the sort;
HCl(aq) + NaHCO3(aq) ---> NaCl(aq) + CO2(g) + H2O(l)
The gas evolved is due to the formation of CO2 in the process. Heat is also evolved showing that it is a chemical change.

Given the balanced equation representing a nuclear reaction:
Which particle is represented by X?
Answer is #4 (neutrons)
Explanation:
Total mass before the reaction is 236 amu. The total mass of the two elements is 233 amu. This means that there are 3 amus carried by element X. Looking at the total atomic number of the two elements after reaction, it's 92, the same as the one at the beginning. This means that element X has zero atomic number, which could only be a neutron.

A mixture of gases with a pressure of 900 mm Hg contains 20% of oxygen and 80% of nitrogen by volumeWhat is the partial pressure of the oxygen gas in the mixture?
A-45mmHg
B-180mmHg
C-210 mmHg
D-320 mmHg
Answer:
180 mmHg
Explanation:
Total volume of gases = 20% + 80%= 100%
Total pressure of gases = 900 mm Hg
Note that partial pressure of a gas = mole fraction × total pressure
Mole fraction of oxygen = 20/100
Hence partial pressure of oxygen= 20/100 × 900 mm Hg
partial pressure of oxygen= 180 mmHg
