Electronegativity is the property of the element to attract electrons to its nucleus. The trend of electronegativity in the periodic table is decreasing from right to left and decreasing from top to bottom. hence from the given elements, the element with the highest electronegativity should be A.beryllium

Answer: A. beryllium

Explanation: Electronegativity of an element is the tendency to attract the share pair of electron towards itself.

The electronegativity increases across a period as the size keeps decreasing, because the electrons get added to the same shell. the valence shell gets nearer to the nucleus and tendency to attract the shared pair of electron keeps increasing.

The electronegativity decreases as we move down a group as the size of the atom keeps increasing and the valence shell keeps moving away from the nucleus, so the incoming electron could not exert the nuclear charge effectively and hence the tendency to attract the shared pair of electron keeps decreasing.

If further increases in substrate concentration do not result in further increases in reaction rate, then an enzyme is likely
igor_vitrenko [27]

Given what we know, we can confirm that if further increases in substrate concentration do not result in further increases in reaction rate, then an enzyme is likely saturated.

<h3>What does it mean for an enzyme to be saturated?</h3>

Enzymes work by binding to the substrate in specific zones of the enzyme. The zones are known as the active sites on enzymes. Since enzymes have a limited amount of these zones, once they are all bonded to a substrate, we can say that it is saturated.

Therefore, the saturation of enzymes allows us to explain how further increases in substrate concentration do not result in further increases in reaction rate.

what does the statment mean. The properties of salts are different from the properties of the elements that go into making them
Olegator [25]
Think of it this way,
Mix Iron and sulphur in a bowl. How do you separate them? Use a magnet right. Yes.

Now, mix the iron and sulphur together but know, heat them up. Let them cool for a while. After that, use a magnet to separate. You cant. This is because the compound (FeS) now has a different property from its original components.

Apply this theory onto salts.
