2 2. The energy stored in a substance that can be released when the substance reacts. A. Mechanical Energy B. Thermal Energy C.
vichka [17]

Answer:

C. Chemical Energy

Explanation:

The energy that stored in the substance or in compounds is called chemical energy which released when the substance reacts.

A substance is made up of atoms and molecules and chemical energy is present in those atoms or molecules. When a chemical reaction takes place, these energy released from atoms and molecules.

Chemical energy can be released in the form of  thermal energy (heat) and mechanical energy (working ability).

Hence, the correct answer is "C. Chemical Energy".

What is the mass of 2.53x10^34 atoms of Ni?
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

2.48 g

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Number of atoms = 2.53×10³⁴ atoms

Mass of Ni =?

From Avogadro's hypothesis,

we understood that 1 mole of any substance contains 6.02×10²³ atoms.

Therefore, 1 mole of Ni contains 6.02×10²³ atoms.

Recall:

1 mole Ni = 59 g

Therefore, 59 g of Ni contains 6.02×10²³ atoms.

Finally, we shall determine the mass of 2.53×10³⁴ atoms of Ni. This can be obtained as follow:

6.02×10²³ atoms = 59 g

Therefore,

2.53×10³⁴ = 2.53×10³⁴ × 59 / 6.02×10²³

2.53×10³⁴ atoms = 2.48 g

Thus, the mass of 2.53×10³⁴ atoms of Ni is 2.48 g.

Are there any good mnemonic devices for remembering functional groups?
Nikolay [14]
<span>Mnemonics for Functional Groups These are possible mnemonics for the common functional groups.
Vowels: The vowels "A", "E", and "Y" for Alkane, Alkene, and Alkyne.
Remember there is no "I." "O" and "U" would result in awkward pronunciations. Alcohol: Look for the "C-O-H" in "Alcohol." Ether: Ethers were anesthetics used in the 1800s.
Dr. Kellogg also lived at the same time. Corn Flakes are made by Kellogg's. A rooster or wingspan (C-O-C) is the cornflake mascot.
Amine: Remember the "N" stands for nitrogen. Aldehyde: This sounds like "Adelaide," the Australian city.
Australia is at the end of the Asian islands, and aldehydes are at the end of the hydrocarbon chain. The "Y" indicates a C=O double bond.
Ketone: Imagine the diagonal strokes of "K" forming the C=O double bond.
 Carboxylic Acid: "Box" stands for boxed wine or C-O-H, alcohol. The "Y" indicates a C=O double bond.
Ester: This sounds like "Estelle" George Costanza's mother in the TV show Seinfeld. George's nickname was Koko or Coco. So think of O=C-O-C.
Amide: Amine with a "D". D for double.</span>

Explain why serine proteases do not catalyze hydrolysis if the amino acid at the hydrolysis site is a D-amino acid. Trypsin, for
tatiyna

Answer:

D. The side chains of D-Arg and D-Lys are not positioned to bind correctly at the active site

Explanation:

Stereospecificity is the ability to distinguish between stereoisomers of of a particular compound. L- and D- structures of compounds in living organisms are usually present in only one form due to stereospecificity. For example, naturally occuring amino acids in proteins are usually present as L-isomers.

Since enzyme are proteins, their active sites are composed of L-amino acid and they show stereospecificity in the reactions they catalyze. In their binding sites, only substrates complementary in structure can bind in order for catalysis to proceed. Therefore, only amino acids in the L- configuration are complementary to the active site of enzymes.

In the case of serine proteases, The side chains of -Arg and D-Lys will not be positioned properly for binding at the binding site of serine proteases, therefore, no catalysis will occur. On the other hand, L-Arg and L-Lys can bind to the catalytic site of serine proteases since they are complementary fits to the active site of the enzymes.
