The best and most correct answer among the choices provided by your question is the fourth choice or letter D "<span>Oil is nonpolar, and water is polar."

</span>Oil<span> will not </span>dissolve<span> in </span>water<span> because </span>water<span> forms a polar covalent bond and </span>oil<span> forms a non-covalent bond. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, in chemistry molecules </span>dissolve<span> with other molecules that share similar characteristics.</span>

I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly.

What is the empirical formula for the following molecular formula: C10H5O2
Tju [1.3M]

The empirical formula is the same as the molecular formula : C₁₀H₅O₂

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Molecular formula : C₁₀H₅O₂

Required

The empirical formula

Solution

The empirical formula (EF) is the smallest comparison of atoms of compound forming elements.  

The molecular formula (MF) is a formula that shows the number of atomic elements that make up a compound.  

(empirical formula) n = molecular formula  

<em>(EF)n=MF </em>

(EF)n = C₁₀H₅O₂

If we divide by the number of moles of Oxygen (the smallest) which is 2 then the moles of Hydrogen will be a decimal number (not whole), which is 2.5, then the empirical formula is the same as the molecular formula

Phosphofructokinase catalyzes the phosphorylation of fructose 6‑phosphate to fructose 1,6‑bisphosphate in glycolysis. Fructose 1
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

d. increases PFK activity, decreases FBPase activity

Explanation:

Fructose-2,6-bisphophate is formed by the phosphorylation of fructose-6-phosphate catalyzed by phosphofructokinase-2, PFK-2.

Fructose-2,6-bisphophate functions as an allosteric effector of the enzymes phosphofructokinase-1, PFK-1 and fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase, FBPase.

Fructose-2,6-bisphophate has opposite effects on the enzymes, PFK-1 and FBPase. When it binds to the allosteric site of the enzyme, PFK-1, it increases the enzymes's activity by increasing its affinity for its substrate fructose-6-phosphate and reduces its affinity for its allosteric inhibitors ATP and citrate. However, when it binds to FBPase, it reduces its activity by reducing its affinity for glucose, its substrate
