Nitrogen gas is an extremely stable molecule because its structure contains which of the following?

A. lonic bonds

B. Triple covalent bonds

C. Resonance bonds

D. Hydrogen bonds

Answer Explanation:

Triple covalent bonds. Nitrogen gas consists of two nitrogen atoms that share three pairs of electrons, forming a triple bond. This bond is very strong and requires a lot of energy to break. Ionic bonds, resonance bonds, and hydrogen bonds are weaker types of bonds that do not occur in nitrogen gas.

 

Therefore, the Correct Answer is B.

    A. ffx ff

    B. Ffx Ff-

    C. Ff x ff

  • Q #3: Which of the following chemicals is released by one type of immune cell to directly activate another type of immune cell?

    A. Lysozymes

    B. Perforin

    C. Cytokines

    D. Granzymes

    Answer Explanation

    Cytokines are small proteins that act as chemical messengers between different types of immune cells. They can stimulate or inhibit the activation, proliferation, differentiation, and migration of immune cells. For example, interleukins are a type of cytokine that is produced by one type of white blood cell and can affect the behavior of another type of white blood cell. Lysozymes, perforin, and granzymes are all molecules that are involved in killing pathogens or infected cells, but they do not directly activate other immune cells.
