Answer:

An ion is charged because the number of electrons does not equal the amount of particles.

Sodium metal is sometimes used as a cooling agent in heat exchange units because of its relatively high molar heat capacity of 2

IgorC [24]

Answer:

The specific heat of sodium is 1,23J/g°C

Explanation:

Using the atomic weight of sodium (23g/mol) and the atomic weight definition, we have that each mole of the substance has 23 grams of sodium.

starting from this, we use the atomic weight of sodium to convert the units from J / mol ° C to J / g ° C

$28,2 \frac{J}{mol C} x \frac{1mol}{23g} = 1,23 J/g C$

How does the shape of an enzyme affect its function?

lutik1710 [3]

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.
