Answer:

The given statement is true.

Enzymes which are present in the digestive tract such as salivary amylase, pepsin, trypsin, et cetera mainly catalyze the hydrolysis reaction.

The hydrolysis reaction is the reaction by which large molecules are broken down into smaller molecules with the help of water.

Most of the complex molecules or nutrients such as starch, protein et cetera are broken down into their respective smaller units with the help of hydrolysis reaction.

For example, lactase catalyzes the hydrolysis of lactose into glucose and galactose.

For the balanced equation shown below, how many moles of o2 will react with 0.3020 moles of co2? 2c2h5oh + 6o2 → 4co2 + 6h2o que
MariettaO [177]
The balanced reaction for combustion is as follows ;
2C₂H₅OH + 6O₂ ---> 4CO₂ + 6H₂O
the stoichiometry of C₂H₅OH to O₂ is 2:6
that means 2 mol of C₂H₅OH reacts with 6 mol of O₂.
when 1 mol of C₂H₅OH reacts with 6/2 mol of O₂,
then 0.3020 mol of C₂H₅OH reacts with - 6/2 x 0.3020
therefore number of O₂ moles reacted = 0.91 mol
