They act as catalysts
Afina-wow [57]3 years ago

There are 2 correct options for this problem.

1) They only speed up the chemical reactions. : True

Enzymes are biological catalysts. A catalyst lowers the activation energy of the reaction. When a reaction needs less energy to start, it occurs at a faster rate.

Many biological reactions that occur in our body are occurring at body temperature. The reactions would become very slow at this temperature . Therefore enzymes act a catalyst to speed up these reactions.

2) They act as catalysts, each for one specific reaction. : True

This option is true because as discussed above, enzymes are catalyst and their job is to speed up a chemical reaction. Enzymes have active sites where a particular substrate can bind during the reaction. Therefore a given enzyme acts a catalyst for a specific reaction only.

Write electron configurations for Gallium, Ga (Z=31), and show the total valence electrons
ivann1987 [24]

<u>Answer:</u> The electronic configuration of gallium is written below and number of valence electrons is 3.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Electronic configuration is defined as the representation of electrons around the nucleus of an atom.

Number of electrons in an atom is determined by the atomic number of that atom.

Valence electrons are defined as the electrons present in the outermost shell of an atom.

We are given:

An element Gallium having atomic number as 31.

Number of electrons = 31

Electronic configuration of Gallium is: (Z=31):1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^{10}4p^1

This element has 3 electrons in its outermost shell. So, the number of valence electrons is 3

Hence, the electronic configuration of gallium is written below and number of valence electrons is 3.

Based on the solubility observations, which of the following pairs of cations could be distinguished by the addition of sodium c
Licemer1 [7]

Based on the solubility observations, barium & aluminum could be distinguished by the addition of sodium chloride to the solutions.

<h3>What happens when NaCl is added to a solution?</h3>
  • The ionic link that held sodium and chloride ions together is broken when water molecules force the ions apart.
  • The sodium and chloride atoms are encircled by water molecules after the salt compounds are separated. After that, the salt dissolves and forms a homogenous solution.
  • In order to keep patients from dehydrating, sodium chloride, an important nutrient, is employed in healthcare. It is employed as a spice to improve flavor and as a food preservative. Additionally, sodium chloride is employed in the production of polymers and other goods. Additionally, it is used to de-ice sidewalks and roadways.
  • Adding water to sodium chloride results in a physical change because no new product is created.
