A unit of mass used to express atomic and molecular weights, equal to one-twelfth of the mass of an atom of carbon-12. It is equal to approximately 1.66 x 10-27<span> kg.</span>
Answer:
Exergonic ,Endergonic,low concentration area,high
Explanation:
In exergonic reaction,certain molecules are broken down;in the process they release energy which is captured when high energy molecules(such as ATP and NADH) are formed.
The breakdown of these molecules can be coupled to thermodynamically unfavorable processes such as Endergonic reactions or pumping og hydrogen ion from low concentration areas to high concentration areas.
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
If the spot in TLC is below the solvent front, it will be observed that the spot, instead of being separated by the solvent as expected, will just dissolve away in the solvent and zero actual separation of the mixture is achieved.
If the solute is dissolved away instead of being separated by the solvent, then the experiment fails because no actual separation of the mixture is achieved.
Hence, in TLC, the spot must be applied above the solvent front so that the capillary movement of the solvent through the plate can lead to the eventual separation of the components of the mixture since the various components of the mixture will travel at different speeds through the plate.
Also, if the solvent is above the spot, the solvent may evaporate selectively from the points above the spot while separation is ongoing.
