Which of the following group is NOT Dobereiner Triads?

 

Among the given options Brass is not a compound. Since it is an alloy, it is a mixture. It is a mixture of copper and zinc.

The smallest part of a compound is called a molecule. It has a unique composition that is always the same.

Compound is a substance that consists of two or more elements. 

Sodium chloride:

The solubility rules tell you that all halides are soluble with the exception of those formed with siver, mercury, and lead ions. Since this is not the case here, sodium chloride will be soluble.

Silver nitrate:

It is soluble because all nitrates are soluble, without exception.

Potassium sulfate:

It is soluble because all sulfates are soluble with the exception of those formed with silver, calcium, barium, mercury, lead, and strontium ions.

Copper (II) hydroxyde:

It is insoluble because all hydroxides are insoluble with the exception of those formed with alkali metal ions and barium.

Carbohydrates are also called as saccharides are molecular compounds made from just three elements:

carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.

Carbohydrates are:

* a source of energy for the body e.g. glucose and a store of energy, e.g. starch in plants

* building blocks for polysaccharides (giant carbohydrates), e.g. cellulose in plants and glycogen in the human body

* components of other molecules eg DNA, RNA, glycolipids, glycoproteins, ATP

Types:

1. Monosaccharides (e.g. glucose) and

2. Disaccharides (e.g. sucrose) are relatively small molecules. They are often called sugars.

3. Other carbohydrate molecules are very large called Polysaccharides such as starch and cellulose.

We know that polar substances are soluble in polar solvents and non polar substances are soluble in non-polar solvents only. Here the hydrocarbons are non-polar molecular substances and water is a polar solvent. So water can't dissolve hydrocabons.

Hence, as hydrocarbons are non-polar substances, they are insoluble in water as it is a highly polar solvent. 

Many carbohydrates contain one or more modified monosaccharide units that have had one or more groups replaced or removed.

Chitin is one of many naturally occurring polymers. It is one of the most abundant natural materials in the world. Over time it is bio-degradable in the natural environment. Its breakdown may be catalyzed by enzymes called chitinases, secreted by microorganisms such as bacteria and fungi, and produced by some plants.

Chitin is composed of repeating units of N-acetylglucosamine, a nitrogen-containing form of glucose.

During daylight hours, plants capture carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and use it to make carbohydrates which is stored as starch in the plant. Animals feed on the plants and extract the carbohydrates through their digestive system. The carbohydrates, namely glucose, are used by the animals for production of ATP through cellular respiration.

Cellar respiration in the animals produces carbon dioxide as a waste product. The carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere, from where it is again captured by plants and the cycle is repeated.

Hence, option B) Plant ----> Animal ----> Atmosphere is the path possible in carbon cycle.

Nucleic acid is a polymer among the given options.
