Consider the biochemical pathway: A + E1 –> B + E2 –> C (Note that A, B, and C are molecules in the pathway, E1 is enzyme

1, and E2 is enzyme 2.) If enzyme 2 is inactive, which of the following compounds will accumulate?

Answer:

The compound that will accumulate is B.

Explanation:

Enzymes in any biochemical process are the protein molecules that speed up the rate of the biological reaction. It lowers down the activation energy of the reactant molecules.

Since from the question:

<u>A + E1 –> B + E2 –> C</u>

Given that A, B and C are the molecules in the pathway and E1 and E2 are the enzymes.

<u>This means that A undergoes some biological reaction in which E1 is acting a catalyst to give B and which further undergoing another biological reaction to give C in the presence of enzyme E2.</u>

Since, E2 is inactive,

<u>A will form B but B will not be able to undergo further reaction and thus, C can not be formed.</u>

<u>Thus A is consumed and C is not formed. The compound that will accumulate is B.</u>

Determine the resulting pH when 12mL if 0.16M HCl are reacted with 32 mL if 0.24M KOH.
TEA [102]

Answer:

pH = 13.1

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information, we can set up the following equation:

HCl+KOH\rightarrow KCl+H_2O

Thus, since there is 1:1 mole ratio of HCl to KOH, we can find the reacting moles as follows:

n_{HCl}=0.012L*0.16mol/L=0.00192mol\\\\n_{KOH}=0.032L*0.24mol/L=0.00768mol

Thus, since there are less moles of HCl, we calculate the remaining moles of KOH as follows:

n_{KOH}=0.00768mol-0.00192mol=0.00576mol

And the resulting concentration of KOH and OH ions as this is a strong base:

[KOH]=[OH^-]=\frac{0.00576mol}{0.012L+0.032L}=0.131M

And the resulting pH is:

pH=14+log(0.131)\\\\pH=13.1

Regards!

You are on a field trip to a nearby lake for biology class and want to perform a quick analysis of the water’s approximate pH le
umka21 [38]
The easiest way to approximate ph level is the ph paper because there are no exprimentation required and it is very handy. so it is the best way to approximate the ph level of a lake, especially when you are outdoors, and it is just an initial reading of the ph. so ph paper will do.

Answer:

16,,24Mg 17,,a24.1 18a mass number of the most abundant isotope

Explanation:

atomic number of Mg is 12 ,therefore its mass number should be the value that is very close to 24.

24.1 is the value of thee most abundant isotope.
