James is preparing three solutions of salt water. Each of the solutions has the same amount of water in the beaker and a differe

nt amounts of salt. In the first beaker, there is one scoop of salt in the beaker. The second beaker has two scoops of salt. The third beaker has three scoops of salt. Which of the beakers is the most dilute solution?

The first one, The less of a substance like salt there is the more diluted the substance but the more there is the more concentrated the substance is

WARNING: The following answer is a complete guess.


The definition of dilute is "make (a liquid) thinner or weaker by adding water or another solvent to it." Now, this may make you think that the beaker with three scoops is the most dilute, but it's not. In this case, it depends on the salt to water ratio. Let's say each beaker contains five parts water. The first beaker has a ratio of 1/5. The second had a ratio of 2/5. The third has a ratio of 3/5. To find which has the most water compared to the others, I'll use equal to make the numerator (The amount of salt) seemingly equal each time. Just a warning, this strategy doesn't work every time. Now, if we make the numerators the same, that means which ever denominator is the highest will be the most dilute solution. Let's make each numerator equal to six, as each number (1, 2, and 3) go into six.

1/5 = 6/30
2/5 = 6/15
3/5 = 6/12

I got these numbers by dividing six (What we want the numerator to be) by each current numerator, and then multiplying the quotient (The answer of a division problem) by both sides of the fraction. Since the first beaker has the highest denominator, we know that it is the most dilute.

Consider a situation in which the enzyme is operating at optimum temperature and pH, and has been saturated with substrate. What
tekilochka [14]

Answer:Increase the enzyme concentration

Explanation:

If the enzyme is saturated, it simply means that all the enzyme molecules present has been bound to substrates.

Of course, there will still be more substrates left in the system since the enzyme is saturated. The reaction rate can now be increased by increasing the enzyme concentration so that more enzyme molecules can be bound to substrates.

PLS HELP!! <br> Balance this equation: __H2+ 2 O2---&gt; 2 H2O
alekssr [168]

Answer:

 2H₂   +   O₂  →   2H₂O

Explanation:

The expression of the equation is given as:

              _H₂   +   2O₂  →   2H₂O

Now for expression above,

                           Reactants                                          Products

H                              2                                                            4

O                              4                                                           2

to balance the equation, we use 2 moles of hydrogen gas and 1 mole of oxygen gas;

           2H₂   +   O₂  →   2H₂O
