What relationship exists between an enzyme and a catalyst?

Chemistry
2 answers:
shepuryov [24]3 years ago

A catalyst is a chemical that increases the rate of a chemical reaction without itself being changed by the reaction. The fact that they aren't changed by participating in a reaction distinguishes catalysts from substrates, which are the reactants on which catalysts work. Enzymes catalyze biochemical reactions.

Answer:

Relationship between the catalyst and enzyme:

Catalyst may be defined as the substance that can increase the rate of the chemical reaction. Catalyst do not change itself in the reaction. In the same way enzymes are bio catalyst that are used to increase the rate of the biochemical reaction.  

The enzymes are generally made up of protein but it is not necessary that the catalyst is made of the protein. All enzymes can work acts as catalyst but all catalyst are not enzymes.

Find the number of moles of sodium hydroxide in 25cm3 solution of concentration 0,1 mol/dm3​
kozerog [31]

Answer:

0.0025  moles

Explanation:

25cm^3 = 25/1000 dm^3

Conc = mol/dm^3

Mol = conc * dm^3

Mol = 0.1 * 25/1000

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

a) 2.541 mol/MJ;

b) 1.124 mol/MJ;

c) 0.4354 mol/MJ;

d) 0.1835 mol/MJ

Explanation:

The enthalpy of formation (ΔH°f) is the enthalpy of a reaction to form a compound by its constituents. For CO₂, ΔH°f = - 393.5 kJ/mol.

The enthalpy of a reaction is the sum of the enthalpy of the products (each one multiplied by the number of moles) less the sum of the enthalpy of the reactants (each one multiplied by the number of moles). The ΔH°f for simple substances (with one atom) is 0. The combustion is the reaction between the fuel and the oxygen.

a) The combution reaction is:

C(s) + O₂(g) → CO₂(g)

ΔH°rxn = -393.5 kJ/mol = -393.5x10⁻³ MJ/mol

Number of moles per MJ released: 1/|ΔH°rxn|

n = 1/(393.5x10⁻³) = 2.541 mol/MJ

b) The combustion reaction is:

CH₄(g) + 2O₂(g) → CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(l)

H₂O is in the liquid state because it's at 1 atm and 25ºC.

ΔH°f, H₂O(l) = -285.3 kJ/mol

ΔH°f, O₂(g) = 0

ΔH°f, CH₄(g) = -74.8 kJ/mol

ΔH°rxn = [2*(-285.3 ) + 1*(-393.5)] - [1*(-74.8)]

ΔH°rxn = -889.3 kJ/mol = -889.3x10⁻³ MJ/mol

n = 1/889.3x10⁻³ = 1.124 mol/MJ

c) C₃H₈(g) + 10O₂(g) → 3CO₂(g) + 4H₂O(l)

ΔH°f,C₃H₈(g) = -25.2 kJ/mol

ΔH°rxn = [4*(-285.3) + 3*(-393.5)] - [1*(-25.2)]

ΔH°rxn = -2,296.5 kJ/mol = -2.2965 MJ/mol

n = 1/2.2965 = 0.4354 mol/MJ

d) C₈H₁₈(l) + (25/2)O₂(g) → 8CO₂(g) + 9H₂O(l)

ΔH°f, C₈H₁₈(l) = -250.1 kJ/mol

ΔH°rxn = [9*(-283.5) + 8*(-393.5)] - [1*(-250.1)]

ΔH°rxn = -5,449.4 kJ/mol = -5.4494 MJ/mol

n = 1/5.4494 = 0.1835 mol/MJ

Whats the difference between covalent and ionic bonds
il63 [147K]

Answer: The two main types of chemical bonds are ionic and covalent bonds. An ionic bond essentially donates an electron to the other atom participating in the bond, while electrons in a covalent bond are shared equally between the atoms. The only pure covalent bonds occur between identical atoms.Jan 23, 2020

Describe what happens when a bond is created between magnesium and bromine. Be specific and explain in terms of electrons.
Allushta [10]

Answer: Magnesium and Bromine/MgBr2 = Ionic compounds

Explanation: When atoms form together they can form between Ionic Compounds and molecules; this could depend on if they're joined by Covalent bonds as well because when atoms form with Covalent bonds, it forms Molecules.
