Antoine Henri Becquerel discovered radioactivity when he was studying
X- rays.
He had been studying phosphorescent uranium ores and hypothesized that they might absorb sunlight and reemit it as X-rays.
His hypothesis was wrong, but his experiments led to the discovery of <em>natural radioactivity</em>.
The appropriate answer is they decrease the potential energy difference between reactant and product. They do this by bringing products and reactants together at the active site on the enzyme molecule. Enzymes are biological catalysts. They increase the rate of a chemical reaction without being used up in the reaction itself. So one molecule of an enzyme is used many times to catalyze the reaction of other molecules.
Answer:
2 elements
Explanation:
Octane is composed of carbon and hydrogen atoms.
The general properties of Group 1 alkali metals are:
1. They form cations.
2. They are highly reactive.
3. They have a charge of +1.
4. They form ionic compounds.
5. When their oxides or hydroxides are reacted in water, they form alkalis i.e. bases.
6. They are usually soft in nature.
7. They have low densities.
