    Yep, it's to do with chemical bonding. If you happen to have the "Science Matters" textbook it's chapter 31 ("Chemical Bonding") which starts on page 219.

    I don't know if this is right or wrong but I'll give it a try. I have a different textbook.:pac:

    They are weak and they tend to be liquids or gases. They do not dissolve in water or conduct electricity.

    okies......

    what is the symbol equation for plant respiration?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,207 ✭✭✭decisions


    6 CO2 + 12 H2O + light → C6H12O6 + 6 O2 + 6 H2O
    carbon dioxide + water + light energy → glucose + oxygen + water

    I think...

    what is an LDR

    Give a brief description of brown soils.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 26 Daire10


    Brown soil is the most common type of soil in Ireland.
    It is located in places where deciduous trees once stood, as when the leaves fell off they decayed/ broken up by micro-organisms and earthworms, turning it into humus.
    Thus brown soils are rich in humus & therefore, very fertile (suitable for a wide range of farming). Leaching is not common in brown soils & thus, no hardpan is present.

  • Registered Users Posts: 439 ✭✭RML


    I can't find that word in my book!:confused:
    Hope that "capillary effect" doesn't come in june:(

    Ok, watch me go!Ahem
    Capillary action is when the water that has been irrigated from a cooler climate to a hotter climate is soaked back up from under the soil by the sun,the water that has been evaporated by the sun leaves behind salt.Salt acts as a poison to plants and kills them!
