<span>Enzymes have three main characteristics. First, they increase the rate of a natural chemical reaction. Secondly, they typically only react with one specific substrate or reactant, and thirdly, enzyme activity is regulated and controlled within the cell through several different means, including regulation by inhibitors and activators. It is possible to group enzymes into different categories, including oxidases, transferases, hydrolases, lyaes, isomerases and ligases. In naming enzymes, the "-ase" suffix is often appended to the name of the substrate molecule upon which which the enzyme reacts. For example, the enzyme sucrase catalyzes the transformation of the sugar sucrose in to glucose and fructose. In this case, the "sucr-" suffix represents the molecule upon which the sucrase enzyme reacts. Not all enzymes are named according to this convention.</span>
Cao + H2O ---->Ca(OH)2
Calculate the number of each reactant and the moles of the product
that is
moles = mass/molar mass
The moles of CaO= 56.08g/ 56.08g/mol(molar mass of Cao)= 1mole
the moles of water= 36.04 g/18 g/mol= 2.002moles
The moles of Ca (OH)2=74.10g/74.093g/mol= 1mole
The mass of differences of reactant and product can be therefore
explained as
1 mole of Cao reacted completely with 1 mole H2O to produce 1 mole of Ca(OH)2. The mass of water was in excess while that of CaO was limited
Covalent bond forms between the oxygen and hydrogen atoms.
(I attached a picture that could help)
-Hope that helps,
Good luck!
When 0.514 g of biphenyl (C12H10) undergoes combustion in a bomb calorimeter, the temperature rises from 25.8 C to 29.4 C. Find ⌂E rxn for the combustion of biphenyl in kJ/mol biphenyl. The heat capacity of the bomb calorimeter, determined in a separate experiment, is 5.86 kJ/ C.
<span>The answer is - 6.30 * 10^3 kJ/mol
