Chemistry

Answer:

Denaturation causes loss of enzyme activity which is necessary for biochemical reaction.

Hence many biological process(respiration,digestion,excretion) won't work properly.

Explanation:

Enzymes : These are biological catalyst made of proteins.E.g Pepsin, tyrosine (human digestion)

Denaturation: loss of Quaternary ,tertiary and secondary structure of proteins and nucleic acid because of extreme conditions of temperature , pressure ,pH etc.

When denaturation occur enzymes loss their specific structure, so they can't carry out various life process (e.g respiration, digestion ,excretion).

Enzymes are involved in all biological reaction and work only at optimum temperature ,pH and pressure(human body condition ).

What is the chemical formula of palladium (iv)sulfate

Margarita [4]

Answer: The chemical formula for Palladium(IV) sulfate is $Pd(SO_4)_2$

Explanation:

Palladium is the 46th element of the periodic table which has an oxidation state of +4 (because it is a metal and will form positive ion) and sulfate is the polyatomic ion having a charge of -2 with formula $(SO_4^{2-})$

So, to write the formula of the compound, we do criss cross method in which oxidation state of each element or ion is given to the other combining atom which results into the formation of a neutral compound.

The chemical formula of the compound is $Pd(SO_4)_2$

Define the law conservation of mass

denis23 [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

The law of conservation of mass or principle of mass conservation states that for any system closed to all transfers of matter and energy, the mass of the system must remain constant over time, as the system's mass cannot change, so the quantity can neither be added nor be removed.
