    1 Molecular-Orbital Theory Introduction Orbitals in molecules are not necessarily localized on atoms or between atoms as suggested in the valence bond theory. Molecular orbitals can also be formed the LCAO where more than two atomic orbitals are used. (Technically‚ we can use all of the atomic orbitals in the LCAO.) Linear combinations of orbitals result in the interference of waves. Both constructive and destructive interference may result. Within a diatomic molecule‚ N atomic orbitals

    The carbon cycle shows how carbon is recycled -Carbon dioxide is taken in by plants in order to carry out photosynthesis and make food. -The carbon from the carbon dioxide is used to make carbohydrates‚ fats and proteins that make up the plant body. For example the cell wall of plants is made from cellulose - a carbohydrate. -Some of this carbon is returned into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide when the plant respires. When these plants are eaten by other animals this carbon becomes part

    The Carbon Cycle Poppy Matless Carbon is present in all living organisms. When organisms die‚ the carbon is recycled for future generations. 1. Carbon is released as CO2 via respiration and combustion 2. CO2 is absorbed by producers (grass‚ plants etc) 3. Animals feed off of the plant‚ passing on carbon throughout the food chain‚ losing some carbon as CO2 respiration. 4. When the animal dies‚ it is eaten by decomposers‚ and the carbon returns to the atmosphere 5. If decomposition

    somewhere on time. Car emissions produce three types of carbon - Carbon Monoxide (CO) and Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and hydrocarbon (CH4) - which are traumatizing both our health and the environment. By itself‚ carbon isn’t a harmful element‚ but one of its characteristics is easily pairing up with majority the elements in the periodic table. Its ability to bond is infinite; it can create many different substances without any problems. Carbon Monoxide is a poisonous gas‚ that leads to severe poisonings
