How do enzymes speed un chemical reactions?

Chemistry

Ahat [919]3 years ago

Enzymes are extremely selective catalysts that help to speed up reactions. The molecules an enzyme works with are called substrates and they bind to the enzyme. This helps speed up reactions greatly once the substrates bind to the active site of the enzyme.

In two or more complete sentences, develop a logical argument to either support or refute the following statement. Be sure to pr
Yuri [45]

We use logic every day to figure out test questions, plan our budgets, and decide who to date. We borrow from the vocabulary of logic when we say, "Brilliant deduction" or even "I don't want to argue about it." In the study of logic, however, each of these terms has a specific definition, and we must be clear on these if we are to communicate.

Vocabulary

Proposition --

T or F in an argument, but not alone. Can be a premise or conclusion. Is not equal to a sentence.

Premise --

Proposition used as evidence in an argument.

Conclusion --

Proposition used as a thesis in an argument.

Argument --

A group of propositions of which one is claimed to follow from the others.

Induction --

A process through which the premises provide some basis for the conclusion

Deduction --

A process through which the premises provide conclusive proof for the conclusion.

When dealing with persuasive writing, it will be helpful for you to outline the argument by premises and conclusions. By looking at the structure of the argument, it is easy to spot logical error.

Example 2

(Here, the conclusion of one argument is used as a premise in another. This is very common.)

Even though there may be a deceiver of some sort, very powerful and very tricky, who bends all his efforts to keep me perpetually deceived, there can be no slightest doubt that I exist, since he deceives me; and let him deceive me as much as he will, he can never make me be nothing as long as I think I am something. Thus, after having thought well on this matter, and after examining all things with care, I must finally conclude and maintain that this proposition: I am, I exist, is necessarily true every time that I pronounce it or conceive it in my mind.

-- Rene Descartes, *Meditations*

Argument 1 Premise 1:

Conclusion of Argument 1

Argument 2 Premise 1:

Conclusion:

To be deceived ... I must exist

When I think that I exist I cannot be  

deceived about that

I am, I exist, is necessarily true ... .

Reaching Logical Conclusions

This article is reprinted from pages 78-79 of Pearson-Allen: Modern Algebra , Book One. In the book it is one of several between-chapter articles that add interest and provike thought on subjects related to the topics discussed in the text.

Consider the two statements:

1. Any member of a varsity squad is excused from physical education.

2. Henry is a member of the varsity football squad.

Our common sense tells us that if we accept these two statement as true, then we must accept the following third statement as true:

3. Henry is excused from physical education.

We say that the third statement follows logically from the other two.

In drawing logical conclusions it does not matter whether the statements we accept as true are reasonable or sensible. This is because we depend entirely upon the form of the statements and not upon what we are talking about. Thus, if we accept the following statements as true:

1. All whales are mammals;  

2. All mammals are warm-blooded animals;  

3. All warm-blooded animals are subject to colds;

then we must conclude that

While in Europe, if you drive 109 km per day, how much money would you spend on gas in one week if gas costs 1.10 euros per lite
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

The amount is x  =  113.3 \  dollars

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The  distance traveled per day is  l  =  109\ km =  \frac{109}{1.609}  =  67.74 \  mi

    The  cost of one liter is  c =  1.10 \ euros/liter = 1.10  *  1.26  = 1.36 \ dollars/liter

     The car's  gas mileage is  b =  22.0 \ mi/gal

Generally the amount of distance covered in one week is evaluated as

      z =  67.74 * 7

       z = 474.18 \  mi

The  amount of gas used in one week by the car is mathematically represented as  

       k  = \frac{ z}{ b}

=>    k  = \frac{ 474.18}{ 22}

=>      k  =  22 \ gal

converting to liters

          k =  22 *  3.78541=83.28 \ liters

Thus the amount spent on gas in one week is  

          x =  k *  c

=>      x  =  83.28 *  1.36

=>      x  =  113.3 \  dollars

What is the limiting reactant in a chemical reaction?
IgorC [24]

Answer:

D.) the reactants that runs out first

Explanation:

Limiting reactant is the reactant which is present in the smallest amount and thus limit the yield of product.

In any chemical reaction limiting reactant is identified by steps:

First we will calculate the number of moles of given amount of reactants.

Then we will find the number of moles of product by comparing with moles of reactant through balanced chemical equation.

Then we will identified the reactant which produced smaller amount of product.

It can be better understand by following problem.

Given data:

Mass of calcium carbonate = 25 g

Mass of hydrochloric acid = 13.0 g

Mass of calcium chloride produced = ?

Which is limiting reactant= ?

Chemical equation:

CaCO₃ + 2HCl  → CaCl₂  + H₂O + CO₂

Number of moles of CaCO₃:

Number of moles of CaCO₃ = Mass /molar mass

Number of moles of CaCO₃= 25.0 g / 100.1 g/mol

Number of moles of CaCO₃ = 0.25 mol

Number of moles of HCl:

Number of moles of HCl = Mass /molar mass

Number of moles of HCl = 13.0 g / 36.5 g/mol

Number of moles of HCl = 0.36 mol

Now we will compare the moles of CaCl₂ with HCl and CaCO₃ .

                   CaCO₃         :               CaCl₂

                       1               :               1

                     0.25           :            0.25

                   HCl              :                CaCl₂

                     2                :                 1

                   0.36            :               1/2 × 0.36 = 0.18 mol

The number of moles of CaCl₂ produced by HCl are less it will be limiting reactant.

Mass of calcium chloride:

Mass of CaCl₂ = moles × molar mass

Mass of CaCl₂ =0.18 mol × 110.98 g/mol

Mass of CaCl₂ =  20 g
