Question

Identify all of the elements in the paragraph above. Use your periodic table along with what you learned in live lesson to make your own chart of those elements when they are oxidized..

DID YOU KNOW...One of the main components of gum is Xylem. The chemical composition
of xylem sap is most often determined and compared with that of the aqueous soil extracts
around the tree source. In Muschelkalk soil, carbon, nitrogen, and calcium are present in the
greatest concentrations. Sulfur, boron, magnesium, sodium, and potassium were greatest in
Keuper, and the concentrations in Loess soil were intermediate. Potassium is often the dominant
cation in xylem sap and is greatest in plants grown on Keuper. In xylem sap, nitrate is normally
the major anion, followed by malate. Nitrate concentration was greatest in plants grown on
Muschelkalk, while malate was greater in plants grown on Keuper. Chloride, sulfate, and
phosphate concentration in sap were increased by fertilizer treatment.
