Explanation:
Calcium chloride is an ionic compound as it is formed by transfer of an electron to each chlorine atom.
So, being an ionic compound calcium chloride is able to dissociate completely into water.
Hence, the dissociation reaction will be as follows.
Since, two electrons has been lost by single calcium atom. Therefore, calcium atom will have a charge of +2.
Thus, we can conclude that the charge on the calcium ion, in elementary units is +2.
Answer:
a. True
b. True
c. False
d. True
Explanation:
a). A a very low substrate concentration , . Thus according to the Machaelis-Menten equation becomes
Here since the varies directly to the substrate concentration [S], the initial velocity is lower than the maximal velocity. Thus option (a) is true.
b). The Michaelis -Menten kinetics equation states that :
Here the initial velocity changes directly with the substrate concentration as is directly proportional to [S]. But
is same for any particular concentration of the enzymes. Thus, option (b) is true.
c). As the substrate concentration increases, the initial velocity also increases. Thus option (c) is false.
d). Option (d) explains the procedures to estimate the initial velocity which is correct. Thus, option (d) is true.
