Answer : Option C) Roughness of the surface and weight of the object.

Explanation : The factors that affect the forces of friction are roughness of the surface and weight of the object.

Friction is the force which resists the relative motion of solid surfaces, fluid layers, and material elements which are sliding against each other.

Friction depends on the normal force and the roughness of the surface which is in contact. When a body is placed on the ground, the mass of the body which is weight = mass x acceleration due to gravity, comes into play for the normal force from the ground. This clearly shows that friction is affected by weight as it depends on the mass of the object.

It also depends partly on the smoothness of the contacting surfaces, if a greater force being applied to move two surfaces past one another then they are rough, if they were smooth less force would have been applied for moving it.

The lock-and-key model and the induced-fit model are two models of enzyme action explaining both the specificity and the catalyt
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

The lock-and-key model:

c. Enzyme active site has a rigid structure complementary

The induced-fit model:

a. Enzyme conformation changes when it binds the substrate so the active site fits the substrate.

Common to both The lock-and-key model and The induced-fit model:

b. Substrate binds to the enzyme at the active site, forming an enzyme-substrate complex.

d. Substrate binds to the enzyme through non-covalent interactions

Explanation:

Generally, the catalytic power of enzymes are due to transient covalent bonds formed between an enzyme's catalytic functional group and a substrate as well as non-covalent interactions between substrate and enzyme which lowers the activation energy of the reaction. This applies to both the lock-and-key model as well as induced-fit mode of enzyme catalysis.

The lock and key model of enzyme catalysis and specificity proposes that enzymes are structurally complementary to their substrates such that they fit like a lock and key. This complementary nature of the enzyme and its substrates ensures that only a substrate that is complementary to the enzyme's active site can bind to it for catalysis to proceed. this is known as the specificity of an enzyme to a particular substrate.

The induced-fit mode proposes that binding of substrate to the active site of an enzyme induces conformational changes in the enzyme which better positions various functional groups on the enzyme into the proper position to catalyse the reaction.

A sample of a chromium-containing alloy weighing 3.450 g was dissolved in acid, and all the chromium in the sample was oxidized
Zina [86]

Answer:

H_2O + 2CrO_4^2- + 3SO_3^2- -> 3SO_3^2- + 2CrO_2^- + 2OH^-

Explanation:

Reduction half reaction

2H_2O + CrO_4^2- + 3e -> CrO_2^- + 4OH^-

Oxidation half reaction

2OH^- + SO_3^2- -> SO_4^2- + H_2O + 2e

Balanced overall equation

H_2O + 2CrO_4^2- + 3SO_3^2- -> 3SO_3^2- + 2CrO_2^- + 2OH^-

How many significant figures are there in the following numbers: 10.78, 6.78, 0.78? If these were pH values, to how many signifi
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

10.78 → 4 significant figures, pH = 10.78 → [H⁺] = 1.66ₓ10⁻¹¹ M

6.78 → 3 significant figures, pH = 6.78 → [H⁺] = 1.66ₓ10⁻⁷ M

0.78 → 2 significant figures, pH = 0.78 → [H⁺] = 0.166 M

pH always can be expressed by at least 4 significant figures. The [H⁺], can be expressed by, at least 3 significant figures

Explanation:

Significant figures are the numbers of a measurement that have certainty plus a doubtful number (it is associated with the uncertainty in the measurement). For example, if we measure a paper with a ruler and the ruler measures up to centimeters we can say that the paper is 7.5 cm long, with which we know that the paper is 7 cm + 0.5 cm which we associate with uncertainty. In this case we talk about two significant figures. If the sheet measured 7.57 cm we would already be talking about a more precise measurement and in this case with 3 significant figures.

10.78 → 4 significant figures

6.78 → 3 significant figures

0.78 → 2 significant figures

To determine [H⁺], we apply 10^-pH

10⁻¹⁰°⁷⁸ = 1.66ₓ10⁻¹¹ M

10⁻⁶°⁷⁸ = 1.66ₓ10⁻⁷ M

10⁻⁰°⁷⁸ = 0.166 M
