Each enzyme's active site is suitable for one specific type of substrate – just like a lock that has the right shape for only one specific key. Changing the shape of the active site of an enzyme will cause its reaction to slow down until the shape has changed so much that the substrate no longer fits.

This is the chemical formula for methyl acetate: CH32CO2. Calculate the mass percent of hydrogen in methyl acetate. Round your a

WITCHER [35]

Answer: The mass percent of hydrogen in methyl acetate is 8 %

Explanation:

The given chemical formula of methyl acetate is $CH_3COOCH_3$

To calculate the mass percentage of hydrogen in methyl acetate, we use the equation:

$\text{Mass percent of hydrogen}=\frac{\text{Mass of hydrogen}}{\text{Mass of methyl acetate}}\times 100$

Mass of hydrogen = (6 × 1) = 6 g

Mass of methyl acetate = [(3 × 12) + (6 × 1) + (2 × 16)] = 74 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Mass percent of hydrogen}=\frac{6g}{74g}\times 100=8.10\%=8\%$

Hence, the mass percent of hydrogen in methyl acetate is 8 %

Where did the zebra mussels originally come from? Plz help

Travka [436]

Answer:

The zebra mussel is a fresh and brackish water bivalve mollusk. It feeds on plankton and suspended organic matter. It is listed 100 most damaging invasive alien species in the world of the International Union for Conservation of Nature

Zebra mussels are an invasive, fingernail-sized mollusk that is native to fresh waters in Eurasia. Their name comes from the dark, zig-zagged stripes on each shell. Zebra mussels probably arrived in the Great Lakes in the 1980s via ballast water that was discharged by large ships from Europe
