5. Infer if a water molecule (H20) has two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom, how would you describe the make- up of a carbon dioxide molecule (CO2)? (please help)

The correct answer is - one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms.

Explanation:

Carbon dioxide is a gas that is present in the atmosphere of the earth. The chemical formula of carbon dioxide is CO₂. In this colorless gas, there is one molecule of carbon dioxide is made up of one atom of carbon covalently double bonded to the two atoms of the oxygens.

Thus, the make- up of a carbon dioxide molecule (CO2) includes one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms.

hydrocarbons are organic compounds that contain only hydrogens and carbons. they can be saturated (those which contain only carbon-carbon single bonds) or unsaturated (those which contain carbon-carbon double or triple bonds) in nature. hydrocarbons can undergo several reactions like substitution, elimination etc.  

on substituting one or more hydrogen atoms in hydrocarbon it results in the formation of haloalkane. as the halogen atoms are large compared to the carbon and hydrogen atoms, due to which the molecular weight increases and the bond become polar because of presence electronegative halogen atom and results in the increase in boiling point of the haloalkane.

thus, the correct option is (b) that is the boiling point of the new compound increases on substituting a hydrogen atom with a halogen in a hydrocarbon.

answer: cellular respiration takes in food and uses it to create atp, a chemical which the cell uses for energy. usually, this process uses oxygen, and is called aerobic respiration. it has four stages known as glycolysis, link reaction, the krebs cycle, and the electron transport chain.
