Enzymes

i got this from google
Enzymes<span> are soluble protein molecules that can speed up chemical reactions in cells. These reactions include respiration, photosynthesis and making new proteins. For this reason </span>enzymes<span> are sometimes called biological catalysts</span>

Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

An enzyme is a type of protein that acts as a catalyst which helps in speeding up a biochemical reaction in living organisms.

Whereas inhibitors are the substances that inhibit the speed of a chemical reaction. That is, inhibitors help in slow down of a chemical reaction.

The basic building blocks of proteins are known as amino acids.

Thus, we can conclude that enzymes are the proteins that speed up chemical reactions.

Which factor is generally responsible for high melting points?
kherson [118]
The factor that is generally responsible for higher melting point is intermolecular forces. The compounds that are covalent in nature are made of molecules rather than ions. It has been seen that some of the covalent compounds have polar molecules at one end, due to which the one end has more electronegative force than the other. The electrostatic force that is bounding the compound is the main cause of higher melting point of this compound.  So it is true that with the increase of polarity of a compound creates higher melting point. .. hope I helped

On the basis of the Ksp values below, what is the order of the solubility from least soluble to most soluble for these compounds
Viktor [21]

Answer:

The order of solubility is AgBr <   Ag₂CO₃ < AgCl

Explanation:

The solubility constant give us the molar solubilty of ionic compounds. In general for a compound AB the ksp will be given by:

Ksp = (A) (B) where A and B are the molar solubilities = s²  (for compounds with 1:1  ratio).

It follows then  that the higher the value of Ksp the greater solubilty of the compound if we are comparing compounds with the same ionic ratios:

Comparing AgBr: Ksp = 5.4 x 10⁻¹³ with AgCl: Ksp = 1.8 x 10⁻¹⁰, AgCl will be more soluble.

Comparing Ag2CO3: Ksp = 8.0 x 10⁻¹²  with AgCl Ksp = AgCl: Ksp = 1.8 x 10⁻¹⁰ we have the complication of  the ratio of ions 2:1 in Ag2CO3,  so the answer is not obvious. But since we know that

Ag2CO3 ⇄ 2 Ag⁺ + CO₃²₋

Ksp Ag2CO3  = 2s x s = 2 s² =  8.0 x 10-12

s = 4 x 10⁻12 ∴ s= 2 x 10⁻⁶

And for AgCl

AgCl  ⇄ Ag⁺ + Cl⁻

Ksp = s² = 1.8 x 10⁻¹⁰  ∴ s = √ 1.8 x 10⁻¹⁰   = 1.3 x 10⁻⁵

Therefore, AgCl is more soluble than Ag₂CO₃

The order of solubility is AgBr <   Ag₂CO₃ < AgCl

Calculate the volume of a 1.25 M solution of HCN made from 31 grams of HCN
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

V HCNsln = 0.9176 L

Explanation:

V HCNsln = ?

∴ m HCN = 31 g

∴ <em>C</em> HCNsln = 1.25 mol/L

∴ molar mass HCN = 27.0253 g/mol

⇒ V HCNsln = (31 g)*(mol/27.0253 g)*(L/1.25 mol) = 0.9176 Lsln
