Some enzymes have one or more sulfhydryl (thiol) groups that are important to enzymatic activity but that can react upon standin

g in solution to form inactive disulfide bonds.
Thiol reagents, such as 1,4-dithiothreitol (DTT), are often added to the solutions of such proteins to protect them from this reaction and to reverse it when it occurs. (The reverse reaction works best at slightly alkaline pH.) Draw the product formed when DTT reacts with a protein disulfide bond to liberate the free thiol groups. Which of the following occurs in this reaction? A. The protein disulfide is oxidized.
B. The protein disulfide is reduced.
C. DTT is reduced.
D. DTT is oxidized.

Answer:

A. Protein disulfide is oxidized.

Explanation:

When thiol reagents are introduced with some protein solutions they react with molecules of disulfide and oxidize the protein. There occurs inter-conversion of thiol molecules into free disulfide molecules. The DTT reduces the disulfide molecules bonds of proteins and it starts to peptide.

If you have 4.01 g of H2, how many grams of NH3 can be produced?
stellarik [79]

Answer:

136.5886g of NH3

Explanation:

N2 + 3H2 = 2NH3

The mass of the N2 = 4.01

3H2 has a 2/1 ratio

This means the mass of 3H2 is twice as much as N2.

NH3= 2*N2 = 2*4.01 = 8.02 of NH3

Then, by multiplying the mass by MX (17.031)

8.02*17.031=136.5886g can be produced. Round it if needed.

What is a atom of chemistry
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

Atom is the smallest particle of matter.

Elements are made up of same atoms.

Atom consist of electron, proton and neutron.

Explanation:

Atom was first discovered by John Dalton.

word "Atom" came from Greek word, that means something that could not split. he explained that atom is indivisible particle.

In the end of 18th century J.J. Thomson put forward a new concept of atom. he said that atom have negative charged particles called electrons but overall atom is neutral.

In 1909 Rutherford with his students discovered positive charged particles and nucleus and said that it is in the center of atom.

He explain a model of atom and said that electrons revolve around a hard core in the center called nucleus.

In 1913 Niels Bohr  explains the atomic spectra and put forward the concept of shells and sub-shells.

So overall Structure of an Atom is

  • consist of Neutrons in nucleus
  • +ve charged protons in nucleus
  • A -vely charged electrons revolving around the nucleus
  • the electron revolve in shells i.e. K, L, M, and N
  • Each shell divide in sub-Shell such as s, p,d and f.

Atom has a specific atomic mass and atomic number

Atomic number = number of protons or electron

Atomic mass = number of protons +  number of neutrons in nucleus.

Which process occurs at the anode in an electrochemical cell?
Fiesta28 [93]

The process that occurs at the anode in an electrochemical cell is the loss of electrons. The answer is number 2. Oxidation occurs as electrons are lost at the anode at one of the electrodes in both an electrolytic cell and a voltaic cell.
