Answer:Yes,enzymes are catalyzed reactions

Explanation:Enzymes are protein that speeds up chemical reactions. Enzyme catalyzed reaction are divided into two:

Homogeneous reaction

Heterogeneous reaction.

Homogeneous catalysts occupy the same phase as the reaction mixture, while heterogeneous catalysts occupy a different phase.

Acid catalysis, organometallic catalysis, and enzymatic catalysis are examples of homogeneous catalysis.

Vanadium oxide (V2 O5) is a brown/yellow solid on which the oxygen and sulfur dioxide can adsorb in order to react with each other to form sulfuric acid.

The reaction A → B + C is known to be zero order in A with a rate constant of 5.0 × 10–2 mol/L·s at 25°C. An experiment was run

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

D. 2.5 × 10–4 M

Explanation:

Data given in the question are;

rate constant of 5.0 × 10–2 mol/L·s

[A]0 = 1.0 × 10–3 M

5 × 10–3 sec

It was mentioned that the reaction is a zero order reaction. One interesting charaacteristics about zero order reactio is that the rate of reaction is indepenedent on the concentrations of the reactants.

This means in zero order reactions, we have;

Rate = Rate constant

Rate = 5.0 × 10–2 mol/L·s

What is the concentration of B after 5 × 10–3 sec?

Concentration = Rate * Time

Concentration = 5.0 × 10–2 * 5 × 10–3

Concentration = 2.5 × 10–4 M

Correct option = D

When N,N-Dimethylaniline is treated with bromine, ortho and para products are observed. However, when N,N-Dimethylaniline is tre

lilavasa [31]

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

To get a better understanding watch the picture attached.

In the case of the reaction with Bromine, the -N(CH₃)₂ is a strong ring activator, therefore, it promotes a electrophilic aromatic sustitution, so, in the mechanism of reaction, the lone pair of the Nitrogen, will move to the ring by resonance and activate the ortho and para positions. That's why the bromine wil go to the ortho and para positions, mostly the para position, because the -N(CH₃)₂ cause a steric hindrance in the ortho position.

In the case of the reaction with HNO₃/H₂SO₄, the acid transform the -N(CH₃)₂ in a protonated form, the anilinium ion, which is a deactivating of the ring, and also a strong electron withdrawing, so, the electrophile will go to the meta position instead.

Hope this helps.

Answer:

1) 1.52 atm.

2) 647.85 K.

3) 20.56 L.

4) 1.513 mole.

5) 254.22 K = -18.77 °C.

Explanation:

In all this points, we should use the law of ideal gas to solve this problem: PV = nRT.
Where, P is the pressure (atm), V is the volume (L), n is the number of moles, R is the general gas constant (0.082 L.atm/mol.K), and T is the temperature (K).

1) In this point; n, R, and T are constants and the variables are P and V.

P and V are inversely proportional to each other that if we have two cases we get: P1V1 = P2V2.

In our problem:

P1 = ??? (is needed to be calculated) and V1 = 45.0 L.

P2 = 5.7 atm and V2 = 12.0 L.

Then, the original pressure (P1) = P2V2 / V1 = (5.7 atm x 12.0 L) / (45.0 L) = 1.52 atm.

2) In this case, n and R are the constants and the variables are P, V, and T.

P and V are inversely proportional to each other and both of them are directly proportional to the temperature of the gas that if we have two cases we get: P1V1T2 = P2V2T1.

In our problem:

P1 = 212.0 kPa, V1 = 32.0 L, and T1 = 20.0 °C = (20 °C + 273) = 293 K.

P2 = 300.0 kPa, V2= 50.0 L, and T2 = ??? (is needed to be calculated)

Then, the temperature in the second case (T2) = P2V2T1 / P1V1 = (300.0 kPa x 50.0 L x 293 K) / (212.0 kPa x 32.0 L) = 647.85 K.

3) In this case, P, n and R are the constants and the variables are V, and T.

V and T are directly proportional to each other that if we have two cases we get: V1T2 = V2T1.

In our problem:

V1 = 25.0 L and T1 = 65.0 °C + 273 = 338 K.

V2 = ??? (is needed to be calculated) and T2 = 5.0 °C + 273 = 278 K.

Herein, there is no necessary to convert T into K.

Then, the volume in the second case (V2) = V1T2 / T1 = (25.0 L x 278 °C) / (338 °C) = 20.56 L.

4) We can get the number of moles that will fill the container from: n = PV/RT.

P = 250.0 kPa, we must convert the unit from kPa to atm; 101.325 kPa = 1.0 atm, then P = (1.0 atm x 250.0 kPa) / (101.325 kPa) = 2.467 atm.

V = 16.0 L.

R = 0.082 L.atm/mol.K.

T = 45 °C + 273 = 318 K.

Now, n = PV/RT = (2.467 atm x 16.0 L) / (0.082 L.atm/mol.K x 318 K) = 1.513 mole.

5) In this case, V, n and R are the constants and the variables are P, and T.

P and T are directly proportional to each other that if we have two cases we get: P1T2 = P2T1.

In our problem:

P1 = 2200.0 mmHg and T1 = ??? (is needed to be calculated) .

P2 = 2700.0 mmHg and T2 = 39.0 °C + 273 = 312.0 K.

Herein, there is no necessary to convert P into atm.

Then, the temperature in the morning (T1) = P1T2 / P2 = (2200.0 mmHg x 312.0 K) / (2700.0 mmHg) = 254.22 K = -18.77 °C.

Five students performed a Kjeldahl nitrogen analysis of a protein sample. The following weight % nitrogen values were determined

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

G_calculated = 1.756

The outlier should be rejected, as G_cal > G_tab (= 1.463) at 95 % confidence.

Explanation:

The Grubb's test is used for identifying an outlier in data, which is from the same population. For this, a statistical term, G, is calculated for the suspected outlier. If the calculated value is greater than the tabulated G value then the suspected value is rejected. This term is given as,

G_calculated = | suspect value - mean| / s

Here, suspect value is 13.8, mean is to be taken of all the data (including suspected value). s is the standard deviation of the sample data.

s is calculated from the following formula:

s = (Σ(xi - x)²/(N-1))^1/2

Here, x is the mean, which is 15.24, xi is individual value and N is the total number of data (5).

From the above formula, s is found to be

Standard Deviation, s = 0.820

Now for G value,

G_calculated = | 13.8 - 15.24| / (0.820)

G_ calculated = 1.756

The tabulated G value at 95 % confidence and N -1 (5 - 1 = 4) degree of freedom is, 1.463.

As calculated G (1.756) is greater than the tabulated G (1.463), the value 13.8 is considered an outlier at 95 % confidence.
