Amino acids are amphoteric, meaning they have both acidic and basic properties. An animo acid has at least one primary amine group, NH2, and at least one carboxyl group, COOH. In an acidic environment whe...

Polymerisation is defined as the process of bringing individual molecules, called monomers, together to form chains of these molecules called polymers. When this process is done with molecules containing ...

Number of atoms
Ca x1 => 40x 1= 40
C x 1 => 12x1 = 12
O x 3= 16 x 3= 48CaCO3
RMM= 40 + 12 + 48= 100

A dative covalent bond, or coordinate bond, is a bond where there is 1 pair of shared electrons between two atoms. The difference relative to a covalent bond is that in a dative covalent bond these electr...

Electrons are mobile or move in halogen molecules. Therefore, there can be an uneven distribution of electrons or electron density in halogen molecules (1 mark). This creates a temporary or instantaneous ...
