What is the minimum amount of material that must be present in a living organism?

The characteristics of two different types of reactions are shown below: reaction a: electrons are gained by the atoms of an element. reaction b: protons are lost by the atom of an element. which statement is true about the atoms of the elements that participate in the two reactions? their identity changes in both reaction a and reaction b. their identity changes in reaction a but not in reaction b. their identity changes in reaction b but not in reaction a. their identity remains the same in both reaction a and reaction b.

At a certain temperature the rate of this reaction is first order in hi with a rate constant of : 0.0632s2hig=h2g+i2g suppose a vessel contains hi at a concentration of 1.28m . calculate how long it takes for the concentration of hi to decrease to 17.0% of its initial value. you may assume no other reaction is important. round your answer to 2 significant digits.

Suppose you discovered a new element with 120 protons and 2 electrons in its outer level . i'm what group does this new element belong? what properties would you expect it to have
