Chlorine. Electronegativity generally increases up and across the periodic table
Explanation:
1. Sedimentation and decantation cannot be used for all types of mixtures.
Decantation is a separation technique in which is used to separate immiscible liquids or mixtures containing liquid and solids within them.
In decantation, gravity is used to bring the denser materials to settle at the bottom.
For homogenous mixtures, it is not possible to use decantation. A solution of sugar and water will not decant.
2. Yes, mass of an object reduces the settling time of such object in a mixture.
The higher the mass, the faster the rate of settling. Also, as we know, mass is directly proportional to density. A body with a high density will settle faster in solution.
Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
A protein part of an enzyme is known as an apoenzyme. An apoenzyme combines with a cofactor, it is known as holoenzyme.
Without a cofactor an apoenzyme cannot function as cofactor helps in the formation of an active enzyme system and provides a specific site on enzyme for the substrate.
Whereas a non-protein chemical compound or metal ion that helps in the activity of enzyme as a catalyst is known as a cofactor. A metal ion cofactor can be bound directly to the enzyme or to a coenzyme.
The organic non-protein molecules which bind to the protein molecule to form an active enzyme is known as a coenzyme. Coenzymes are small size molecules which help the enzymes to act as a catalyst.
Therefore, we can conclude that the statement an apoenzyme can catalyze its reaction without its cofactor, is false.
Answer:
Four
Step-by-step explanation:
The <em>superscripts</em> in an electron configuration tell us how many electrons are in a subshell.
If the electron configuration is 1s¹ 2s¹2p², the total number of electrons is
1 + 1 + 2 = 4
The atom contains four electrons.
<em>Note</em>: this atom is in an <em>excited state</em>, because the 1s and 2s subshells can each hold one more electron.
