Which kind of molecule does the diagram represent?

Chemistry

Answer:

It is a triglyceride

Explanation:

A triglyceride is a molecule that contains a glycerol group and three fatty acids linked by an ester linkage. A fatty acid is a molecule formed by a long linear hydrocarbon chain, of different length or number of carbon atoms, at the end of which is a carboxyl group. These chains can be saturated (with hydrogen) or when there are double bonds in the chain  this reduces the available places of hydrogen that's why it's called unsaturated.

In the image you can see on the right the glycerol group. And the three fatty acids extending to the left. The top one is an example of a saturated fatty acid, and the two below unsaturated.

Triglycerides are generally solid at room temperature and are therefore called fats. For example, the fat that constitutes us is mostly formed by triglycerides.

Goshia [24]

Answer:

The manufacturing processes for liquefied petroleum gas are designed so that the majority, if not all, of the sulfur compounds are removed. The total sulfur level is therefore considerably lower than for other crude oil-based fuels and a maximum limit for sulfur content helps to define the product more completely. The sulfur compounds that are mainly responsible for corrosion are hydrogen sulfide, carbonyl sulfide and, sometimes, elemental sulfur. Hydrogen sulfide and mercaptans have distinctive unpleasant odors. A control of the total sulfur content, hydrogen sulfide and mercaptans ensures that the product is not corrosive or nauseating. Stipulating a satisfactory copper strip test further ensures the control of the corrosion.

Which of the following is false? a. an apoenzyme can catalyze its reaction without its cofactor b an organic cofactor can be cal
ozzi

Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A protein part of an enzyme is known as an apoenzyme. An apoenzyme combines with a cofactor, it is known as holoenzyme.

Without a cofactor an apoenzyme cannot function as cofactor helps in the formation of an active enzyme system and provides a specific site on enzyme for the substrate.

Whereas a non-protein chemical compound or metal ion that helps in the activity of enzyme as a catalyst is known as a cofactor. A metal ion cofactor can be bound directly to the enzyme or to a coenzyme.

The organic non-protein molecules which bind to the protein molecule to form an active enzyme is known as a coenzyme. Coenzymes are small size molecules which help the enzymes to act as a catalyst.

Therefore, we can conclude that the statement an apoenzyme can catalyze its reaction without its cofactor, is false.
