The correct option is (d) To express very large or very small number.

What is the Scientific Notation?

Scientific notation is a way to present numbers that are too large or too small to be easily written in decimal form. The three components of  scientific notation are coefficient, base and exponent. The proper format to write a scientific notation is a x 10^b, where a is a number or decimal number and b is the power of 10 to make scientific notation equivalent to original number. When a number between 1 and 10 is multiplied by a power of 10 then the number is expressed in scientific notation. For example,  10000000 can be written as 10⁷, which is the scientific notation and the exponent is positive here. Similarly, for the negative exponent 0.000001 can be can be represented as 10-⁷.                             Hence, the scientific notation is used to express very large or very small numbers.

<h3>What is amino acids?</h3>

Amino acids are chemical molecules having side chains (R groups) unique to each amino acid as well as amino and carboxylic acid (CO2H) functional groups.

Every amino acid contains the elements carbon (C), hydrogen (H), oxygen (O), and nitrogen (N) (CHON); in addition, the side chains of cysteine and methionine contain sulfur (S), while the less frequent amino acid selenocysteine has selenium (Se). As of 2020, it is known that more than 500 naturally occurring amino acids make up the monomer units of peptides, including proteins.

Despite the fact that there are only 22 proteins, 20 of them have unique specified codons, and another two have unique coding mechanisms: All eukaryotes contain selenocysteine, and pyrrolysine is also present.

earnstyle [38]

Answer:

The correct answer is The equilibrium constant for this reaction changes as the pH changes.

Explanation:

The equilibrium constant of a reaction depends of pH and viceverca.There is a equation that link pH with equilibrium constant Ka(for assumption).The equation is given below,

    pH=pKa+log[A-/HA]  

where[A-] is the concentration of conjugate base and [HA] is the concentration of conjugate acid.
