Answer:

- When looking at the plot G versus reaction coordinate, the profile for a biological catalyst (e.g. an enzyme) will have <u>about the same</u> transition state(s), with an overall activation energy that is <u>low </u>in comparison to the uncatalyzed reaction.

- Enzymes have a <u>high </u>molecular weight and are <u>organic</u> compounds, while inorganic catalysts often have a <u>low</u> molecular weight and are <u>inorganic</u> compounds.

- When comparing rates, enzymes are typically several times <u>faster</u> than inorganic catalysts.

Explanation:

Enzymes are organic molecules capable of producing a faster chemical reaction. In an enzymatic reaction the transition state -corresponding to the state in which the substrates or products are equally likely- tends to be the same, while the energy required for the reaction decreases.

The differences between an enzyme and an inorganic catalyst are structural and functional:

  • <em>Enzymes are organic and of high molecular weight and catalysts are inorganic and of low molecular weight. </em>
  • <em>An enzyme can change its structure during a reaction, while the configuration of a catalyst is the same. </em>
  • <em>The reaction catalyzed by an enzyme is about 10⁶ to 10¹² times faster than with a catalyst.</em>

Answer:

Towards the big bully

Explanation:

If a big bully and a small child are involved in a thug of war, it is clear that the bully is stronger than the child and he/she will pull the rope used in the thug of war with a greater force.

By so doing, the ball attached at the centre of the rope will naturally be drawn towards the stronger bully.

How do the solvent and solute differ in a solution
hodyreva [135]
A solution is a homogeneous mixture, meaning it contains 2 or more substances. A solute is a substance that’s dissolved in the solvent. Think of it as dissolving salt (solute) in water (solvent) to make a salt solution. The amount of each substance in the solution impacts the concentration of it. So if I put more salt than water, it increases its concentration, while adding more water decreases its concentration.

What volume will be occupied by 33.0 grams of CO2 at 500 torr and 27 °C?
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

V = 27.98 L

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of CO₂ = 33.0 g

Pressure = 500 torr

Temperature = 27°C

Volume occupied = ?

Solution:

Number of moles of CO₂:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 33.0 g/ 44 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.75 mol

Volume of CO₂:

PV = nRT

R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K  

Now we will convert the temperature.

27+273 = 300 K

Pressure = 500 /760 = 0.66 atm

By putting values,

0.66 atm×V = 0.75 mol × 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K  × 300 K

V = 18.47 atm.L/0.66 atm

V = 27.98 L
