Answer:

6 C(s) +  3 O₂(g) + 2 Fe₂O₃(s) →  4 Fe(s) + 6 CO₂(g)

Explanation:

Iron can be formed in two steps.

Step 1: 2 C(s) + O₂(g) → 2 CO(g)

Step 2: Fe₂O₃(s) + 3 CO(g) → 2 Fe(s) + 3 CO₂(g)

In order to get the net chemical equation, we will multiply the first step by 3, the second step by 2, and then add them.

6 C(s) +  3 O₂(g) → 6 CO(g)

+

2 Fe₂O₃(s) + 6 CO(g) → 4 Fe(s) + 6 CO₂(g)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

6 C(s) +  3 O₂(g) + 2 Fe₂O₃(s) + 6 CO(g) → 6 CO(g) + 4 Fe(s) + 6 CO₂(g)

6 C(s) +  3 O₂(g) + 2 Fe₂O₃(s) →  4 Fe(s) + 6 CO₂(g)

Imagine that you are observing an enzyme-catalyzed reaction in lab. every time you add more enzyme, the reaction rate increases
tester [92]

Enzymes catalyze the chemical reactions, they act upon the reaction substrates and speed up the reaction. Enzymes have active sites, the places where the reaction substrates interact with the enzyme bringing about the conversion of substrates to products. So, as the enzyme concentration increases the rate of reaction increases till a point where the rate is leveled off. The rate does not further increase, as the substrate might have become limiting at that point. All the available amount of substrate would have been associated with the active sites of the enzymes. So, at that point although there is enough catalyst, lack of substrate would limit the rate of reaction.

Determine the possible traits of the calves if:
White raven [17]

Answer:

1. All red calves i.e. RR

2. All roan calves i.e RW

3. 2 red calves (RR) and two roan calves (RW)

Explanation:

According to this question, a gene coding for fur colour in cattle is involved. Red alleles (R) and white alleles (W) are co-dominant to produce a roan cattle (RW). The possible traits of the following crosses are (see attached punnet square):

1) A red bull (RR) is mated to a red (RR) cow: All red calves i.e. RR

2) A red (RR) bullis mated with white (WW) cow: All roan calves i.e RW

3) A roan bull (RW) is mated with red (RR) cow: 2 red calves (RR) and two roan calves (RW).

Alkanes are chains of carbon atoms surrounded by hydrogen atoms. <br><br> a. True<br> b. False
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

a. True

Explanation:

Alkanes are chains of carbon atoms surrounded by hydrogen atoms. TRUE.

Alkanes are hydrocarbons, that is, they are organic compounds formed only by carbon and hydrogen. In alkanes, carbon atoms are bonded to each other through single covalent bonds and they are also bonded to hydrogen atoms through the same type of bonds. Alkanes have the general formula CnH2n+2.
