Answer:-

People with diabetes must monitor their blood glucose levels constantly.

Blood glucose levels are nowadays measured by the help of enzyme glucose oxidase. The enzyme glucose oxidase catalyzes the oxidation of glucose to gluconic acid.

By this way all of the glucose is measured at one time. At the same time hydrogen peroxide is produced.

The hydrogen peroxide reacts with a second color producing chemical. The concentration of the glucose can be related to the intensity of color produced

1. A gas sample at a pressure of 5.00 atm has a volume of 3.00 L. If the gas pressure is changed to 760 mm Hg, what volume will
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

V₂ =  15.00 atm

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial pressure = 5.00 atm

Initial volume = 3.00 L

Final pressure = 760 mmHg ( 760/760 = 1 atm)

Final volume = ?

Solution:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

V₂ = P₁V₁ /  P₂

V₂ =  5.00 atm × 3.00 L / 1 atm

V₂ =  15.00 atm

The balanced equation for a hypothetical reaction is a + 5b + 6c → 3d + 3e. what is the rate law for this reaction? rate = k [a]
nekit [7.7K]

<u>Answer: </u>The correct rate of the reaction is Rate=k[a][b]^5[c]^6

<u>Explanation:</u>

Rate law of the reaction is the expression which expresses the rate of the reaction in the terms of the molar concentrations of the reactants with each term raised to the power of their respective stoichiometric coefficients in a balanced chemical equation.

For the given reaction:

a+5b+6c\rightarrow 3d+3e

The expression for the rate law will be: Rate=k[a][b]^5[c]^6
