<span>What caused the bubbles to form when you added the catalyses to the hydrogen peroxide and water mixture at 40 °C? A. Catalyses activity heated the solution to its boiling point. B. Hydrogen gas formed during the formation of hydrogen peroxide. C. Oxygen gas formed during the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide.

This would be the water, mixture.</span>

\boxed{{\text{Formation of oxygen}}} caused the bubbles to form when catalase is added to the hydrogen peroxide and water mixture at 40\;^\circ {\text{C}}.

Further explanation:

Catalyst:

These are the substances that change the rate of a chemical reaction but these don’t get consumed in the reaction. These have wide applications in petroleum, fertilizer and pharmaceutical industries. These are also used in the formation of many substances such as ammonia, nitric acid, and sulphuric acid.

Enzymes are biological catalysts that increase the rate of chemical reactions. These are highly specific in nature. Most enzymes are proteins. These increase the rate of reaction by decreasing the activation energy. Catalase is a common enzyme that catalyzes the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide to water and oxygen.

The given reaction occurs as follows:

2{{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{2}}}\xrightarrow{{{\text{Catalase}}}}2{{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{O}} + {{\text{O}}_{\text{2}}}

Here, catalase catalyzes the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide and result in the formation of water and oxygen. Bubbles are formed due to production of oxygen gas during the reaction.

Find the no. Of electron involved in the electro deposition of 63.5g of cu from a solution of cuso4
sp2606 [1]
This is a redox reaction, meaning reduction-oxidation reaction. This represents the reaction in one side of the electrode in an electrolysis set-up. First, we find the oxidation number of Cu in CuSO4:

(ox. # of Cu)+ ox.# of S + 4(ox.# of oxygen) = 0
(ox. # of Cu) + (6) + 4(-2) = 0
ox. # of Cu = 2+

CuSO4 ---> Cu + SO42-
Cu2+ + SO42-  ---->  Cu + SO42-
Cu2+ -----> Cu + 2e-   (net ionic reaction)

The stoichiometric equation would be 2 electrons per mole Copper. Copper has a molar mass of <span>63.5 g/mol. Then, it would only need 2 electrons.

What process created the sand and the soil?
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

They are produced from rocks (parent material) through the processes of weathering and natural erosion.

Explanation:

Soil minerals form the basis of soil. They are produced from rocks (parent material) through the processes of weathering and natural erosion. Water, wind, temperature change, gravity, chemical interaction, living organisms and pressure differences all help break down parent material.

What is the name of the hydrocarbon CH3(CH2)6CH3?
Brums [2.3K]

Answer is: n-octane.

Octane is the straight-chain alkane (an acyclic saturated hydrocarbon) with eight carbon atoms.

Carbons in octane have sp3 hybridization (carbon’s 2s and three 2p orbitals combine into four identical sp3 orbitals).

Orbitals in sp3 hybridization have a tetrahedral arrangement and form single (sigma) bonds.

Burning octane fuel is very fast chemical reaction, it happens in immediately.

Main products of the combustion of fossil fuels are carbon(IV) oxide and water.  

Chemical reaction: C₈H₁₈ + 25/2O₂ → 8CO₂ + 9H₂O; ΔH = -5500 kJ/mol.
