11. Which one of the following contains the same number of atoms as 7 g

Which describes the products created from fission reactions? Question 3 options:

Ipatiy [6.2K]

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is option A.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Nuclear fission reactions are a type of nuclear reactions in which larger nuclei breaks apart into two or more smaller fragment releasing alpha, gamma of beta particles.

There are 3 types of particles that can be released during this process:

1. Alpha particles: These particles are released when a nuclei undergoes alpha-decay process.

$_Z^A\textrm{X}\rightarrow _{Z-2}^{A-4}\textrm{Y}+_2^4\alpha$

2. Beta particles: These particles are released when a nuclei undergoes beta-minus decay process.

$_Z^A\textrm{X}\rightarrow _{Z+1}^{A}\textrm{Y}+_{-1}^0\beta$

3. Gamma radiations: these radiations are released when an unstable nuclei gives off excess energy by a process of spontaneous electromagnetic process.

$_Z^A\textrm{X}^*\rightarrow _Z^A\textrm{X}+_0^0\gamma$

Hence, any of these particles can be released during the process of fission reaction with smaller atoms.

Therefore, the correct answer is option A.

Classify each amino acid into the following categories. Select the amino acid that fits best in each category. Each amino acid w

mel-nik [20]

Answer:

1. Lysine

2. Aspartic acid

3. Serine

4. Alanine

5. Tryptophan

Explanation:

Amino acids are biomolecules that contain two functional groups and one R side chain. The two functional groups are: carboxyl group and amino group.

The α-amino acids are the amino acids in which the two functional groups and the R side chain are attached to the α-carbon of the amino acid. They are total 22 α-amino acids.

1. A basic amino acid: Lysine is a positively charged, polar basic amino acid with a lysyl side chain.

2. An acidic amino acid: Aspartic acid is a negatively charged, polar acidic amino acid with an acidic carboxymethyl group.

3. A neutral polar amino acid: Serine is a polar and neutral amino acid with a hydroxymethyl group.

4. A non-polar aliphatic amino acid: Alanine is an aliphatic, nonpolar and neutral amino acid with a methyl side chain.

5. An aromatic amino acid: Tryptophan is an aromatic, nonpolar and neutral amino acid with an indole side chain.
