12. complete each of the following word equations for synthesis reactions. a. sodium + oxygen -> b. magnesium + fluorine -> 13. complete and balance the equations for the decomposition reactions. a. hgo -> [with the triangle heat symbol above the arrow] b. h2o(l) -> [with "electricity" written above the arrow]

The human eye contains a molecule called 11-cis-retinal that changes shape when struck with light of sufficient energy. the change in shape triggers a series of events that results in an electrical signal being sent to the brain that results in vision. the minimum energy required to change the conformation of 11-cis-retinal within the eye is about 164 kj/mol.

Observation and experimentation have led many scientists to accept a theory about the origin of the universe. this theory is called the big bang theory. scientific evidence collected and observed by scientists around the world suggests that the universe is ever expanding from a hot and dense initial state. what makes this a scientific theory?
