6 0

Answer:

Enzyme  

Explanation:

An enzyme is an organic catalyst that speeds up a reaction but can be recovered unchanged.

Human lactase consists of 4092 amino acid groups and has a molar mass of about 280 000 u, so it has a complex structure.

Convert 1.248×1010 g to each of the following units.
Leona [35]

Answer:

a) 1.248 x 10⁷ kg

b) 1.248 x 10⁴ Mg

c) 1.248 x 10¹³ mg

d) 1.248 x 10⁴ ton

Explanation:

a) Since 1000 g = 1 kg we can convert grams to kg by multiplyig any given quantity in grams by the conversion factor ( 1 kg / 1000 g):

1.248 x 10¹⁰ g * (1 kg / 1000 g) = 1.248 x 10⁷ kg

b) Since 1 Mg = 1 x 10⁶ g, the conversion factor will be ( 1 Mg / 1 x 10⁶ g):

1.248 x 10¹⁰ g * (  1 Mg / 1 x 10⁶ g) = 1.248 x 10⁴ Mg

c) Since 1 mg = 1 x 10⁻³ g, the conversion factor will be ( 1 mg / 1 x 10⁻³ g):

1.248 x 10¹⁰ g ( 1 mg / 1 x 10⁻³ g) = 1.248 x 10¹³ mg

d) Since 1 metric ton = 1000 kg and 1000 g = 1 kg, we can use these conversions factors: ( 1 kg / 1000 g) and (1 ton / 1000 kg):

1.248 x 10¹⁰ g * ( 1 kg / 1000 g) * ( 1 ton / 1000 kg) = 1.248 x 10⁴ ton

If 10.57 g of magnesium reacts completely with 6.96 g of oxygen, what is the percent by mass of oxygen in magnesium oxide? Round
Deffense [45]

Answer:

39.7 %

Explanation:

magnesium + oxygen ⟶ magnesium oxide

   10.57 g         6.96 g               17.53 g

According to the <em>Law of Conservation of Mass</em>, the mass of the product must equal the total mass of the reactants.

Mass of MgO = 10.57 + 6.96

Mass of MgO = 17.53 g

The formula for mass percent is

% by mass = Mass of component/Total mass × 100 %

In this case,

% O = mass of O/mass of MgO × 100 %

Mass of O = 6.96 g

Mass of MgO = 17.53 g

% O = 6.96/17.53 × 100

% O = 0.3970 × 100

% O = 39.7 %

Without consulting Appendix B, arrange each group in order of decreasing standard molar entropy (S°). Explain.(b) NO₂(g), NO(g),
denpristay [2]

The decreasing order of standard molar entropy (S°) is as follow:

NO₂(g) > NO(g) > N₂(g)

<h3>What is Entropy? </h3>

Entropy is defined as the randomness of the particle. It depends on temperature and pressure or number of particle per unit volume.

It is directly proportional to the temperature and pressure of the gas.

<h3>What is Standard Molar Entropy? </h3>

The standard molar entropy is defined as the entropy content of the one mole of pure substance at the standard state of temperature and pressure of interest.

The standard molar entropy is also defined as the total amount of entropy which 1 mole of the substance acquire, as it is brought from 0K to standard conditions of temperature and pressure.

The standard molar entropy depends on the molas mass of atom, molecules or compound.

N₂ has lower standard molar entropy. This can be explained as this molecule consist of same atom.

While, Complexity increases from NO to NO₂(g). Therefore, the standard molar entropy of NO₂(g) is greater than NO.

Thus, we concluded that the decreasing order of standard molar entropy (S°) is as follow:

NO₂(g) > NO(g) > N₂(g)
