Scilla [17]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

It determines how biological molecules recognize and respond to one another with specificity.

Explanation:

A molecule has a characteristic size and shape. The precise shape of a molecule is usually very important to its function in the living cell. Molecular shape is crucial in biology because it determines how biological molecules recognize and respond to one another with specificity.

A sample of a pure element has a mass of 45.6g and contains 4.19 x 10 23 atoms. Identify the element.
max2010maxim [7]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

    ZINC

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

<em>To identify the element based on the informartion given, we have to find the molar mass since this mass is unique to each element.</em>

            Molar mass = mass ÷ moles

<em>We already know the mass based on the question, as such we now need to find the # of moles.</em>

           Since 1 mole contains 6.02214 × 10²³ atoms

      then let  x moles contain 4.19 × 10²³ atoms <em>(given in the question)</em>

<em>     </em><em> </em>   ⇒   x =  (4.19 × 10²³ atoms  ×  1 mol) ÷ 6.02214 × 10²³ atoms

              x  =  0.69577 mol

<em>Now that we have the moles we can substitute it into the molar mass equation and solve for the molar mass.</em>

           ⇒ molar mass = 45.6 g ÷ 0.69577 mol

           ⇒ molar mass ≈  65.54 g/mol

                    This molar mass is closest to that of ZINC.

Ainat [17]

Answer:

The pellet fraction will be most radioactive because the heavy protein part of ghost will be present in the the pellet fraction.

Explanation:

supernatant can be defined as a liquid part that lies above the sediment of the centrifuge tube on the other hand pallet is a solid material present at the bottom end of the centrifuge tube.

    As protein molecules in the given experiment is radio labelled that"s why the pellet fraction will be radio labeling part because the heavy protein molecules will be present in the pellet fraction.

which of the following best helps explain why an increase in temperature increases the rate of a chemical reaction?
NeTakaya

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.

Which of the following best helps explain why an increase in temperature increases the rate of a chemical reaction?

(a)   at higher temperatures, high-energy collisions happen less frequently.

(b)  at low temperatures, low-energy collisions happen more frequently.

(c)   at higher temperatures, less-energy collisions happen less frequently.

(d)  at higher temperatures, high-energy collisions happen more frequently

Explanation:

When we increase the temperature of a chemical reaction then molecules of the reactant species tend to gain kinetic energy. As a result, they come into motion which leads to more number of collisions within the molecules.

Therefore, chemical reaction will take less amount of time in order to reach its end point. This means that there will occur an increase in rate of reaction.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement at higher temperatures, high-energy collisions happen more frequently, best explains why an increase in temperature increases the rate of a chemical reaction.
