How does the shape of an enzyme affect its function?

Each enzyme's active site is suitable for one specific type of substrate – just like a lock that has the right shape for only one specific key. Changing the shape of the active site of an enzyme will cause its reaction to slow down until the shape has changed so much that the substrate no longer fits.

An enzyme's shape directly affects how it catalyzes a reaction. Its shape is determined by the sequence of amino acids in its structure and the bonds that form between the atoms of those molecules.

Hope this helps!

What mass of oxygen (O2) forms in a reaction that forms 15.90 g C6H12O6? (Molar mass of O2 = 32.00 g/mol; molar mass of C6H12O6
Dafna11 [192]

The answer is: the mass of oxygen is 16.95 grams.

The overall balanced photosynthesis reaction:  

6CO₂ + 6H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂.  

m(C₆H₁₂O₆) = 15.90 g; mass of glucose.

n(C₆H₁₂O₆) = m(C₆H₁₂O₆) ÷ M(C₆H₁₂O₆).

n(C₆H₁₂O₆) = 15.9 g ÷ 180.18 g/mol.

n(C₆H₁₂O₆) = 0.088 mol; amount of glucose.

From chemical reaction: n(C₆H₁₂O₆) : n(O₂) = 1 : 6.

n(O₂) = 6 · 0.088 mol.

n(O₂) = 0.53 mol; amount of oxygen.

m(O₂) = 0.53 mol · 32.00 g/mol.

m(O₂) = 16.95 g; mass of oxygen.

Ap sublevel has 3 electrons. How should they be arranged
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

C.)One electron in each p orbital

Explanation:

In a P-sublevel with 3 electrons, they should be arranged with one electron going into each p-orbitals.

This is in accordance with the Hund's rule of maximum multiplicity.

The rule states that "electrons go into degenerate orbitals or sub-levels(p,d and f) singly before paring up".

Since the p-orbital is 3-fold degenerate with a capacity to accommodate a maximum number of 6 electrons, given 3 electrons, they will follow the Hund's rule in order to fill the orbitals.

So one electron will go in each p - orbitals easily.
