Chemistry Questions

Glycolysis is the chemical process that converts glucose C₆H₁₂O₆, into Pyruvate, CH₃COCOO− + H⁺.

• It represents the first stage in the chemical oxidation of glucose by a cell.

• The free energy released in this process is used to form the high-energy molecules ATP and NADH.

All chemistry is based on sharing electrons. A chemical bond forms when two atoms transfer or share outer electrons to complete their outer shells.

Fructose is an Organic molecule among the given options.

Organic Molecules :

An organic molecule is one which contains carbon, although not all compounds that contain carbon are organic molecules. Noticeable exceptions are carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), carbonates (e.g. calcium carbonate), carbides (e.g. calcium carbide) and cyanides (e.g. sodium cyanide). Pure carbon compounds such as diamond and graphite are also not organic compounds. Organic molecules can range in size from simple molecules to complex structures containing thousands of atoms.

Although carbon is present in all organic compounds, other elements such as hydrogen (H), oxygen(O), nitrogen (N), sulfur (S) and phosphorus (P) are also common in these molecules.

In simple, Molecules needed for life that have carbon are called Organic Molecules.

Electrons orbit around the nucleus is correct about them.

Tetraethyl lead is a highly toxic compound used as a gasoline additive.

Tetraethyl lead abbreviated as TEL, is an organo lead compound with the formula (CH₃CH₂)₄Pb. It is a petro-fuel additive which in turn caused increased vehicle performance. This is also used as an antiknock agent in gasoline and jet fuels. Tetraethyl lead is absorbed rapidly by the skin, the lungs, and the gastrointestinal tract. It is converted to triethyl lead, which might be responsible for its toxicity.

Electronegativity measures an element's ability to form chemical bonds. Helium is the most electronegative element followed by Fluorine.

Here in the given options, Oxygen is the most electronegative element. Fluorine is followed by Oxygen, Chlorine and Nitrogen is the most electronegative elements list.
