Answer:

The reaction is not spontaneous in the forward direction, but in the reverse direction.

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: </u>Data given

H2(g) + I2(g) ⇌ 2HI(g)     ΔG° = 2.60 kJ/mol

Temperature = 25°C = 25+273 = 298 Kelvin

The initial pressures are:

pH2 = 3.10 atm

pI2 = 1.5 atm

pHI 1.75 atm

<u>Step 2</u>: Calculate ΔG

ΔG = ΔG° + RTln Q  

with ΔG° = 2.60 kJ/mol

with R = 8.3145 J/K*mol

with T = 298 Kelvin

Q = the reaction quotient → has the same expression as equilibrium constant → in this case Kp = [p(HI)]²/ [p(H2)] [p(I2)]

with pH2 = 3.10 atm

pI2 = 1.5 atm

pHI 1.75 atm

Q = (3.10²)/(1.5*1.75)

Q = 3.661

ΔG = ΔG° + RTln Q  

ΔG = 2600 J/mol + 8.3145 J/K*mol * 298 K * ln(3.661)  

ΔG =5815.43 J/mol = 5.815 kJ/mol

To be spontaneous, ΔG should be <0.

ΔG >>0 so the reaction is not spontaneous in the forward direction, but in the reverse direction.

Which of the following is necessarily characterized by a covalent linkage?a. Base-pairing interactionb. Disulfide bondc. Hydroge
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

b. Disulfide bond

Explanation:

Covalent linkage or bonding is a type of bond in which electrons are shared between atoms in a compound or molecule. Each atom contributes to the shared electron.

This is the case of disulfide bonding i.e. S-S, in which two thiol groups (-SH) share electrons with one another. The process of oxidation between two cysteine (amino acid) molecules forms this bond. Hence, Disulfide bond is characterized by a covalent linkage.

An enzyme can catalyze a reaction with either of two substrates, S1 or S2. The Km for S1 was found to be 2.0 mM, and the Km, for
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

100.5 ≈ 101

Explanation:

Km for S1 = 2.0 mM

Km for S2 = 20 mM

Given that : S1 = S2 =  hence Vmax for either S1 or S2 can represent

The Vmax can be calculated using the data Given and equation below

Vo = Vmax [s] / ( Km + [s] )  ------ (1)

Vo = 0.5

[s] = 0.1 mM

km = 20 mM

making Vmax subject of  equation 1

Vmax = 0.5 ( 20.1 mM) / (0.1 mM )

         = 100.5 ≈ 101
