The correct answer is E
charle [14.2K]2 years ago
3 0

Answer: E. It decreases the activation energy hurdle.

Explanation:

Activation energy is the extra energy that must be supplied to reactants in order to cross the energy barrier and thus convert to products.

A catalyst is a substance which increases the rate of a reaction by taking the reaction through a different path which involves lower activation energy and thus more molecules can cross the energy barrier and convert to products.

The catalyst itself does not take part in the chemical reaction and is regenerated as such at the end.

. Why do you use a pencil and not a pen to mark TLC plates?
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

Pencil is always used to mark chromatography paper or TLC plates because ink may run and interfere with the chromatogram. ... As soon as the paper/plate is taken out, mark the solvent front with a pencil before the solvent evaporates and the front becomes impossible to see.

The human eye has an osmotic pressure of 8. 00 atm at 37. 0 °c. what concentration (in moles/l) of a saline (nacl) solution will
Gelneren [198K]

0.3147 concentration (in moles/l) of a saline (NaCl) solution will provide an isotonic eyedrop solution.

Isotonic eye drops

Because it might result in eye discomfort or tissue damage if it is not maintained, isotonicity is regarded as a crucial component of ophthalmic medicines. A few drops of blood are mixed with the test preparation before being examined and judged under a microscope at a magnification of 40. Isotonic solutions are those that have the same amount of water and other solutes in them as the cytoplasm of a cell. Since there is no net gain or loss of water, placing cells in an isotonic solution will not cause them to either shrink or swell.

We can calculate the osmotic pressure exerted by a solution using the following expression.

π = M . R . T

where,

π is the osmotic pressure

M is the molar concentration of the solution

R is the ideal gas constant

T is the absolute temperature

The absolute temperature is 37 + 273 = 310 K

π = M . R . T

8 = (X mol/L) . (0.082atm.L/mol.K) . 310 K = 0.3147 mol/L
