What are the 4 groups of substances that plants need?
sun, water, soil, and carbon dioxide
Why two OH groups on one carbon atom are unstable?
OH groups a strongly electron withdrawing. The effect of two of these groups on a single carbon is that it causes de-shielding of the carbon nucleus making the carbon atom a strong electrophile. The carbon then attacks the lone pair of one of the hydroxyl groups, forming a C, O double bond and expelling a proton and a hydroxide ion which form water.
Unique chemical groups that are added to carbon compounds are called?
funtional groups
How can you say that a carbon in molecule is chiral?
Chiral carbon is the carbon which is connected to four different groups in a molecule.
What gas is removed from the atmosphere by the Calvin Cycle?
In each complete run of the Calvin Cycle, six molecules of carbon dioxide eventually produce one molecule of glucose (C6H12O6). In each "turn" of the cycle, the 5-carbon molecule ribulose biphosphate (RuBP) bonds with an incoming carbon dioxide molecule to create a 6-carbon molecule. This 6-carbon molecule breaks into two 3-carbon molecules of phosphoglycerate (PGA). The energy stored in ATP and NADPH is used to attach phosphate groups to the PGA. Eventually, there are 12 molecules of glyceraldehyde phosphate (also known as phosphoglyceraldehyde or PGAL). Two of these molecules are removed from the cycle to make one glucose molecule. The remaining PGAL molecules use ATP energy to reform six RuBP molecules, and thus start the cycle again. Remember that a different reaction-specific enzyme catalyzes each step in this process. Im pretty sure its glucose Check with a teacher to be more sure!
What groups in Canada don't favor reducing carbon dioxide emissions?
hello
What are the 4 groups of substances that plants need?
sun, water, soil, and carbon dioxide
What groups of organisms use sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into sugar and oxygen?
Autotrophs
Which part o the hemoglobin molecule does carbon dioxide attach?
Hemoglobin refers to a red protein responsible for transporting oxygen in the blood of vertebrates. The part of the hemoglobin molecule that carbon attaches to is the heme molecule.
What is the defining characteristic of organic molecules?
Organic chemistry is defined as 'the chemistry of compounds of Carbon'. Or, more accurately, compounds containing carbon-hydrogen bonds. (For example, carbon dioxide doesn't count as organic.)
When amino acids are oxidized to form cellular energy their amino groups are removed and liberated as what?
in the liver urea is combined with carbon dioxide to form
What is an example of a political party aggregating interest?
Creating a coalition of various groups to pass a bill
What is a disadvantage of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere?
If the levels get too high, some groups believe that a tipping point could be reached and the world would start getting warmer.
What substance in blood that carries carbon dioxide?
Hemoglobin/haemoglobin (two different spellings of the same thing). It's a protein made up of four separate protein chains, each of which has a heme group, which has as its central feature a porphyrin ring containing an iron atom. This is what gives red blood cells their characteristic color (which is actually more of a dark purple than red when carbon dioxide is bound to the heme groups).
What is carbon credit in financial management?
A permit that allows the holder to emit one ton of carbon dioxide. Credits are awarded to countries or groups that have reduced their green house gases below their emission quota. Carbon credits can be traded in the international market at their current market price.
What are some substances that have a double covalent bond?
Carbon dioxide (CO2), ethylene (C2H4), acetone (C3H6O), acetic acid (CH3COOH) are just a few.Alkenes are an entire class of molecules that contain only carbon and hydrogen and have a double bond in them (a carbon-carbon double bond).Other groups of molecules that have double bonds are ketones, which have a carbon-oxygen double bond.
How are oxygen and carbon dioxide transported on the same hemoglobin molecule?
Oxygen binds with the iron atoms of hemoglobin molecules while carbon dioxide bonds with the amino groups of these molecules. Because oxygen and carbon dioxide do not directly compete for binding sites, hemoglobin molecules can transport both at the same time.
