Why are enzymes necessary?

Chemistry
2 answers:
Finger [1]4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Enzymes are necessary because they are essential to the life of the cells.

Explanation:

They act catalysts, which is a substance that increase the speed of the chemical reactions needed by the cell to live and reproduce.

The enzymes fasten the metabolic processes by breaking the molecules into smaller ones.

I hope this answer helps you.

An enzyme is a protein that controls the speed of a chemical reaction.
Without enzymes , reactions would take place too slowly to keep you alive and therefore you will die

A] 1 N2 + 3 H2 → 2 NH3
Vilka [71]

I haven't done these in some time, so I'm not sure if they are 100% right.

1) 6.3 moles of H2( 2 mol of NH3 / 3  mol of H2)= 4.2 mol of NH3

6.3 moles of H2( 2 mol of NH3/ 3 mol of H2)(17.04 g of NH3/1 mol NH3)= 71.57 g of NH3

2) 2.5 moles of N2(2 mol of NH3/1 mol of N2)= 5 moles of NH3

2.25 moles of N2(2 mol of NH3/ 1 mol of N2)(6.02x10^23 particles/ 1 mol of NH3)= 3.01x10^24 particles of NH3

3) 425 g of NH3(1 mol of NH3/17.04 g NH3)= 24.9 moles of NH3

425 g of NH3(1 mol of NH3/17.04 g of NH3)(1 mol of N2/2 mol of NH3)(28.02 g of N2/1 mol N2)= 349 g of N2

425 g of NH3(1 mol of NH3/17.04 g of NH3)(1 mol of N2/2 mol of NH3)= 12.5 mol of N2

4) 10 moles NH3(3 moles of H2/2 moles of NH3)= 15 moles H2

10 moles NH3(3 mol of H2/2 mol of NH3)(2.02 g of H2/1 mol of H2)= 30.3 g of H2

30.3 g = .0303 liters of H2

The rate constant for the reaction below is 6.2 x 10−5 mol l−1 s −1. if the initial concentration of a is 0.0500 m, what is its
snow_tiger [21]

The correct answer is 0.04287 M

It is given that the rate constant of the reaction is 6.2 × 10⁻⁵ mol/L/s

Thus, as the rate of the reaction is in mol/L/s, it is a zero order reaction.  

The initial concentration of a is 0.0500 M, and there is a need to find the concentration of a after 115 seconds. This can be done with the help of the equation:  

[A]o -[A] = kt

[A] = [A]o - kt

= (0.0500 M) - (6.2 × 10⁻⁵) (115 s)

= 0.04287 M

3) A certain reaction has the following general form: A + B à AB At a particular temperature the concentration versus time were
seropon [69]

Answer:

a. First order.

b. k=3.7x10^{-3}s ^{-1}

c. t_{1/2}=187.3s

d. [A]=0.111M

Explanation:

Hello.

a. In this case since the slope is in s⁻¹ we can infer that the lineal form of the rate law is:

ln[A]=-kt+ln[A]_0

Which is also:

y=mx+b

It means that the reaction is first-order as slope equals the negative of the rate constant which also has units of first-oder reaction.

b. Since the slope is −3.7 x 10−3 s−1 the rate constant is:

k=-m\\\\k=-(-3.7x10^{-3}s ^{-1})\\\\k=3.7x10^{-3}s ^{-1}

c. For first-order reactions, the half-life is:

t_{1/2}=\frac{ln(2)}{k}\\ \\t_{1/2}=\frac{ln(2)}{3.7x10^{-3}s^{-1}}\\\\t_{1/2}=187.3s

d. In this case, since the integrated first-order rate law is:

[A]=[A]_0exp(-kt)

The concentration once 220 seconds have passed is:

[A]=0.250Mexp(-3.7x10^{-3}s^{-1}*220s)\\\\

[A]=0.111M

Regards.
