Think about atoms, molecules, elements, and compounds. How can you relate it to your own body? To the world around you, right now? Please explain in four sentences.

Everything we see comes from the transferring of electrons, or redox reactions. Fire, the screen you are staring at, and many other chemical reactions that happen everyday, we don't even care to notice anymore. Everything in our bodies is made up of compounds, from simple things such as H2O, and to the food we eat, loaded with sugar, C12H22O11. From the para-benzoic acid on your sunscreen, to the O3 in the ozone layer high above us.

Explanation:

"among the transition metal elements, manganese and zinc have a slight lowering of electronegativities. the reason behind this is that the nuclear charges of these elements are slightly weaker than the other transition metal elements due to the way their valence electrons are filled up. both manganese and zinc have their valence electrons filled up to the 4th shell with 1 pair of electrons (4s2) completely occupying it. although the electrons in the 3rd shell (3d) are yet to be paired since the outer most shell is filled up, the ability of the nucleus to attract electrons is lessened. hence,   the electronegativity (or the ability to attract electrons) is lessened."
