Phenyl-methane-sulfonyl-fluoride (PMSF) inactivates serine proteases by binding covalently to the catalytic serine residue at the active site, this enzyme-inhibitor bond is not cleaved by the enzyme. This is an example of an Irreversible kind of inhibition.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  •    Cell Lysates are prepared by using Phenyl-methane-sulfonyl-fluoride (PMSF). This PMSF is an enzyme inhibitor that inactivates serine proteases.
  •     It inactivate the serine proteases by attaching with the catalytic serine, Which was in an active state.
  •    The PMSF bond was not separated by the enzyme. So this action cannot be repeated. Hence it is an irreversible kind of inhibition.
  •     Handling of PMSF should be done in a fume hood and while handling it we should wear gloves.

Scrat [10]

Answer: Bubbles formed would be evidence that a chemical reaction took place when the solutions were combined.

Explanation:

As it is given that both Na_{2}CO_{3} and HCl chemically combine together leading to the formation of NaCl, water and carbon dioxide gas. As the gas is forming and its formation will also form bubbles into the solution.

This formation of bubbles actually indicate that a chemical reaction has taken place. As molecules of a gas are held by Vander waal forces so, this gas will readily escape into the atmosphere.

Thus, we can conclude that bubbles formed would be evidence that a chemical reaction took place when the solutions were combined.

When it comes to equilibrium reactions, it useful to do ICE analysis. ICE stands for Initial-Change-Equilibrium. You subtract the initial and change to determine the equilibrium amounts which is the basis for Kc. Kc is the equilibrium constant of concentration which is just the ratio of products to reactant. 

Let's do the ICE analysis

      2 NH₃ ⇄ N₂ + 3 H₂
I         0        1.3    1.65
C     +2x       -x      -3x
-------------------------------------
E       0.1        ?        ?

The variable x is the amount of moles of the substances that reacted. You apply the stoichiometric coefficients by multiplying it by x. Now, we can solve x by:

Equilibrium NH₃ = 0.1 = 0 + 2x
x = 0.05 mol
Therefore,
Equilibrium H₂ = 1.65 - 3(0.05) = 1.5 mol
Equilibrium N₂ = 1..3 - 0.05 = 1.25 mol

For the second part, I am confused with the given reaction because the stoichiometric coefficients do not balance which violates the law of conservation of mass. But you should remember that the Kc values might differ because of the stoichiometric coefficient. For a reaction: aA + bB ⇄ cC, the Kc for this is

K_{C} = \frac{[ C^{c} ]}{[ A^{a} ][ B^{b} ]}

Hence, Kc could vary depending on the stoichiometric coefficients of the reaction.
