Phase transitions is when a substance go through a change in its physical state, for example, solid to liquid, liquid to gas, etc. Energy in this case must be absorbed or released, and not necessarily it will be seen a change of temperature in this case. Mathematically, we calculate the energy released or absorbed by using the molar enthalpy of vaporization or molar enthalpy of fusion, as we can see in the following formulas:

ΔH = m*ΔHvap

ΔH = m*ΔHfusion

So phase transition is the energy required for a substance to change the physical state.

Most protein enzymes catalyze only one specific chemical reaction effectively. What feature of protein structure is most directl
babunello [35]

Answer;

d. the specific geometry and types of amino acids in the active site

Explanation;

-Enzymes are highly selective catalysts, meaning that each enzyme only speeds up a specific reaction. The molecules that an enzyme works with are called substrates. The substrates bind to a region on the enzyme called the active site.

-For a substrate to bind to the active site of an enzyme it must fit in the active site and be chemically attracted to it. The shape of an enzyme determines how it works. Enzymes have active sites that substrate molecules (the substances involved in the chemical reaction) fit into when a reaction happens.

If you are given the molarity of a solution, what additional information would you need to find the weight/weight percent (w/w%)
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

- The molar mass of the solute, in order to convert from moles of solute to grams of solute.

- The density of solution, to convert from volume of solution to mass of solution.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since molarity is mathematically defined as the moles of solute divided by the volume of solution and the weight/weight percent as the mass of solute divided by the mass of solution, we need:

- The molar mass of the solute, in order to convert from moles of solute to grams of solute.

- The density of solution, to convert from volume of solution to mass of solution.

For instance, if a 1-M solution of HCl has a density of 1.125 g/mL, we can compute the w/w% as follows:

w/w\%=1\frac{molHCl}{L\ sln}*\frac{36.45gHCl}{1molHCl}*\frac{1L\ sln}{1000mL\ sln}*\frac{1mL\ sln}{1.125g\ sln}    *100\%\\\\w/w\%=3.15\%

Whereas the first factor corresponds to the molar mass of HCl, the second one the conversion from L to mL of solution and the third one the density to express in terms of grams of solution.

Regards.

What mass of carbon dioxide is produced from the complete combustion of 5.30x10-3 g of methane?
pshichka [43]

Answer:

1.45 x 10⁻² g CO₂

Explanation:

To find the mass of carbon dioxide, you need to (1) convert grams CH₄ to moles CH₄ (via molar mass), then (2) convert moles CH₄ to moles CO₂ (via mole-to-mole ratio from reaction coefficients), and then (3) convert moles CO₂ to grams CO₂ (via molar mass). The final answer should have 3 sig figs to reflect the given value (5.30 x 10⁻³ g).

Molar Mass (CH₄): 12.011 g/mol + 4(1.008 g/mol)

Molar Mass (CH₄): 16.043 g/mol

Combustion of Methane:

1 CH₄ + 2 O₂ ---> 2 H₂O + 1 CO₂

Molar Mass (CO₂): 12.011 g/mol + 2(15.998 g/mol)

Molar Mass (CO₂): 44.007 g/mol

5.30 x 10⁻³ g CH₄          1 mole              1 mole CO₂          44.007 g
---------------------------  x  ----------------  x  ---------------------  x  -----------------  =
                                      16.043 g            1 mole CH₄            1 mole

=  0.0145 g CO₂

=  1.45 x 10⁻² g CO₂
