Tripropylene glycol is formed by the condensation of 3 monomers with the lose of 2 molecules of water.

The breakdown of  tripropylene glycol:

             C9H20O4 + 2H2O → C3H8O2 + C3H8O2 + C3H8O2

Belonging to the large family of alcohols, propylene glycol is a chemical element widely used by the food industry thanks to its recognized emulsifying properties. It is referable to its acronym E1520. This colorless, low volatile and soluble diol is also used in many other industries. Pharmaceutical, cosmetic, aeronautic, textile industries ... Propylene glycol is involved in the composition of many polymers such as polyester. Non-toxic when inhaled, propylene glycol is used in electronic cigarette filling fluid to produce an aerosol effect comparable to that of smoke.

With respect to polypropylene glycol, each condensation of propylene glycol causes a loss of a water molecule

C3H8O2 + C3H8O2 + C3H8O2 ==> C9H20O4 + 2H2O

This question is incomplete

Explanation:

This question is incomplete.

However, lions have 38 chromosomes (19 pairs) and <u>there cubs get their chromosomes from there parents</u>; with each parent donating 19 each. They also have a pair of chromosomes known as sex chromosomes (X and Y). The female always donates the X chromosome and the male donates either a X (which leads to a female cub) or a Y (which leads to a male cub), just like in many mammals.

NOTE: Chromosomes are threadlike structures in the nucleus of a cell that carry/stores genetic materials/genes.

torisob [31]

Answer:

These cleaning products break apart the capsules of the viruses causing them to no longer be capable of infecting an individual.

Explanation:

Bleach oxidises organic molecules. This causes proteins to become denatured, or lose their shape. The viral capsule containing the DNA is a coat made up of proteins that is required for the virus to become infectious. Therefore, following bleach treatment, the viral protein capsule become oxidised, cause them to loses their shape, meaning the virus can no longer infect individuals.
