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!

Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

The number of neutrons present in one atom of isotope of Silicon of mass 28 amu is<u> 14 neutrons</u>

Explanation:

Symbol of Si isotope

_{14}^{28}\textrm{Si}

<u>Number of Neutron = Mass number - Atomic Number</u>

Mass number = Total number of protons and neutrons present in the nucleus of the atom.For Si = 28 amu

Atomic Number = Total number of Protons present in the nucleus.

Si = 14

Number of neutron = 24 - 14

                                = 14

Mercury(II) oxide (HgO) decomposes to form mercury (Hg) and oxygen (O2). The balanced chemical equation is shown below.
zavuch27 [327]

15.63 mol. You need 15.63 mol HgO to produce 250.0 g O_2.

<em>Step 1</em>. Convert <em>grams of O_2 to moles of O_2</em>

Moles of O_2 = 250.0 g O_2 × (1 mol O_2/32.00 g O_2) = 7.8125 mol O_2

<em>Step 2</em>. Use the molar ratio of HgO:O_2 to convert <em>moles of O_2 to moles of HgO </em>

Moles of HgO = 0.8885 mol O_2 × (2 mol HgO/1 mol O_2) = <em>15.63 mol HgO</em>

A sample of gas has a volume of 2.36 L at a temperature of 53.00 °C. The gas sample is heated to a temperature of 139.00 °C (ass
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

The volume increases because the temperature increases and is 2.98L

Explanation:

Charles's law states that the volume of a gas is directely proportional to its temperature. That means if a gas is heated, its volume will increase and vice versa. The equation is:

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

<em>Where V is volume and T is absolute temperature of 1, initial state, and 2, final state of the gas.</em>

In the problem, the gas is heated, from 53.00°C (53.00 + 273.15 = 326.15K) to 139.00°C (139.00 + 273.15 = 412.15K).

Replacing in the Charles's law equation:

2.36L / 326.15K= V₂/412.15K

<h3>2.98L = V₂</h3>
