What type of molecules interact with water polar or nonpolar

Chemistry
1 answer:
vaieri [72.5K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Polar molecules interact with water

Explanation:

Regarding polarity, <em>molecules interact with substances that have a similar polarity to their own</em>, in other words, polar molecules interact with other polar substances and nonpolar molecules interact with other nonpolar substances.

Because of the electronegativity difference between O and H, water (H₂O) is polar, so it will interact with polar molecules.

A gas has a volume of 240 mL and a pressure of 0.99 atm. If the pressure is decreased to 0.951 atm, what is the new volume of th
irakobra [83]

V2 = 250 ml

Explanation:

Given:

P1 = 0.99 atm. V1 = 240 ml

P2 = 0.951 atm. V2 = ?

We can use Boyle's law to solve for V2

P1V1 = P2V2

V2 = (P1/P2)V1

= (0.99 atm/0.951 atm)(240 ml)

= 250. ml

Cytochromes are critical participants in the electron transport chains used in photosynthesis and cellular respiration. How do c
goblinko [34]

Answer:

4) Each cytochrome has an iron‑containing heme group that accepts electrons and then donates the electrons to a more electronegative substance.

Explanation:

The cytochromes are <u>proteins that contain heme prosthetic groups</u>. Cytochromes <u>undergo oxidation and reduction through loss or gain of a single electron by the iron atom in the heme of the cytochrome</u>:

Cytochrome-Fe²⁺ ⇄ cytochrome-Fe³⁺-e⁻

The reduced form of ubiquinone (QH₂), an extraordinarily mobile transporter, transfers electrons to cytochrome reductase, a complex that contains cytochromes <em>b</em> and <em>c₁</em>, and a Fe-S center. This second complex reduces cytochrome <em>c</em>, a water-soluble membrane peripheral protein. Cytochrome <em>c</em>, like ubiquinone (Q), is a mobile electron transporter, which is transferred to cytochrome oxidase. This third complex contains the cytochromes <em>a</em>, <em>a₃</em> and two copper ions. Heme iron and a copper ion of this oxidase transfer electrons to O₂, as the last acceptor, to form water.

Each transporter "downstream" is <u>more electronegative</u><u> than its neighbor </u>"upstream"; oxygen is located in the inferior part of the chain. Thus, the <u>electrons fall in an energetic gradient</u> in the electron chain transport to a more stable localization in the <u>electronegative oxygen atom</u>.

Some glucose produced by gluconeogenesis is stored in the body as glycogen. Order the steps of glycogen synthesis.
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

e. UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase catalyzes the reaction of glucose-I-phosphate and UTP to UDP-glucose and PPi

a. Pyrophosphatase converts PPi and water into two Pi

b. Glycogen synthase adds a glucose unit from UDP-glucose to glycogen, producing a larger glycogen molecule and UDP

Explanation:

Glycogen synthesis or glycogenesis is the process of synthesis of glycogen molecules from glucose molecules in living organisms. Glycogen is a polysaccharide storage form of glucose and helps to store excess glucose in the body form use when required by the body.

The synthesis of glycogen involves sugar nucleotides. Sugar nucleotides are compounds in which a sugar molecule is attached to a nucleotide through phosphate ester bond, resulting in the activation of the sugar molecule. The sugar nucleotides then are used as substrates for the polymerization of the monosaccharide sugars into disaccharides, oligosaccharides and polysaccharides.

In the synthesis of glycogen, glucose-6-phosphate from phosphorylation of free glucose by hexokinase is first isomerized to glucose-1-phosphate by phosphoglucomutase.

Glucose-1-phosphate is then converted to UDP-glucose by its reaction with UTP catalyse by UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase. The reaction is favoured by the rapid hydrolysis of PPi produced to two molecules of inorganic phosphate by the enzyme pyrophosphatase.

Glycogen synthase then adds a glucose unit from UDP-glucose to a growing chain of glycogen, producing a larger glycogen molecule and free UDP.
