Answer:

B) hyperbolic curve; saturated with substrate

Explanation:

Enzymatic kinetics studies the speed of enzyme catalyzed reactions. These studies provide direct information about the mechanism of the catalytic reaction and the specificity of the enzyme. The speed of a reaction catalyzed by an enzyme can be measured with relative ease, since in many cases it is not necessary to purify or isolate the enzyme. The measurement is always carried out under the optimal conditions of pH, temperature, presence of cofactors, etc., and saturating substrate concentrations are used. Under these conditions, the reaction rate observed is the maximum speed (Vmax). The speed can be determined either by measuring the appearance of the products or the disappearance of the reagents.

Following the rate of appearance of product (or disappearance of the substrate) as a function of time, the so-called reaction progress curve is obtained, or simply, the reaction kinetics. This curve is represented by a hyperbolic curve

Water can be formed in the following reaction:
just olya [345]

Answer

12

Explanation

We have a balanced chemical equation from the question that depicts the formation of water.

                                                  2H2+O2-->2H2O,


We can clearly see from the equation that, the formation of 2 moles of water molecules requires the input of 2 moles of hydrogen and 1 mole of Oxygen.

So indirectly, it tells that the moles of water molecules will be double of the moles of Oxygen molecules used in the reaction.

So if we say that 6 moles of oxygen is used and the reaction is going in such a way that hydrogen is not a limiting reactant, then 12 moles of water will be produced.


Hope it help!

The molar mass of an unknown gas was measured by an effusion experiment. It was found that it took 60 s for the gas to effuse, w
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

The molar mass of the gas is 44 g/mol

Explanation:

It is possible to solve this problem using Graham's law that says: Rates of effusion are inversely dependent on the square of the mass of each gas. That is:

\frac{r_1}{r_2} =\frac{\sqrt{M_2} }{\sqrt{M_1} }

If rate of effusion of nitrogen is Xdistance / 48s and for the unknown gas is X distance / 60s and mass of nitrogen gas is 28g/mol (N₂):

\frac{X/48s}{X/60s} =\frac{\sqrt{M_2} }{\sqrt{28g/mol} }

6,61 = √M₂

44g/mol = M₂

<em>The molar mass of the gas is 44 g/mol</em>

How many moles of electrons are transferred when 2.0 moles of aluminum metal react with excess copper(II) nitrate in aqueous sol
mojhsa [17]

Moles of electrons:

The moles of electrons that are transferred are 12F

A balanced equation:

2 moles of Aluminium metal react with excess copper(II) nitrate.

2Al + 3Cu{(NO_3)}_2  \rightarrow 2Al{(NO_3)}_3 +3 Cu

Given:

Moles of Aluminium = 2

As Aluminium goes from 0 to +3 oxidation state

Al \rightarrow Al^{3+} + 3e^-

And copper goes from +2 to 0

Cu^{2+} + 2e^-\rightarrow Cu

On balancing the number of electrons we get:

For 1 mole of Al 6e^- is required.

Therefore for 2 moles of Al,

Total (2\times6)F mole of electrons

Where F= Faraday's constant= 96500 C

So, 12F moles of electrons are transferred.

Given the following at 25C calculate delta Hf for HCN (g) at 25C. 2NH3 (g) +3O2 (g) + 2CH4 (g) ---&gt; 2HCN (g) + 6H2O (g) delta
AysviL [449]

<u>Answer:</u> The \Delta H_f for HCN (g) in the reaction is 135.1 kJ/mol.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Enthalpy change is defined as the difference in enthalpies of all the product and the reactants each multiplied with their respective number of moles. The equation used to calculate enthalpy change is of a reaction is:

\Delta H_{rxn}=\sum [n\times \Delta H_f(product)]-\sum [n\times \Delta H_f(reactant)]

For the given chemical reaction:

2NH_3(g)+3O_2(g)+2CH_4(g)\rightarrow 2HCN(g)+6H_2O(g)

The equation for the enthalpy change of the above reaction is:

\Delta H_{rxn}=[(2\times \Delta H_f_{(HCN)})+(6\times \Delta H_f_{(H_2O)})]-[(2\times \Delta H_f_{(NH_3)})+(3\times \Delta H_f_{(O_2)})+(2\times \Delta H_f_{(CH_4)})]

We are given:

\Delta H_f_{(H_2O)}=-241.8kJ/mol\\\Delta H_f_{(NH_3)}=-80.3kJ/mol\\\Delta H_f_{(CH_4)}=-74.6kJ/mol\\\Delta H_f_{(O_2)}=0kJ/mol\\\Delta H_{rxn}=-870.8kJ

Putting values in above equation, we get:

-870.8=[(2\times \Delta H_f_{(HCN)})+(6\times (-241.8))]-[(2\times (-80.3))+(3\times (0))+(2\times (-74.6))]\\\\\Delta H_f_{(HCN)}=135.1kJ

Hence, the \Delta H_f for HCN (g) in the reaction is 135.1 kJ/mol.

In AG calculations, temperature is expressed in a. degrees Celsius. b. kelvins. c. degrees Fahrenheit, d. kilojoules.
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

The correct option is: a. degrees Celsius

Explanation:

The anion gap is the difference in the cations and anions in plasma, serum or urine, calculated from medical lab test results. It can be calculated by measuring the concentration of the anions or cations, which are expressed in millimoles/litre (mmol/L) or milliequivalents/liter (mEq/L).

The temperature in this test is expressed in degrees Celsius (°C).
