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.

6. 100 ml of gaseous hydrocarbon consumes 300
mario62 [17]

Answer:

  • <u><em>a. C₂H₄</em></u>

Explanation:

At constant pressure and temperature, the mole ratio of the gases is equal to their volume ratio (a consequence of Avogadro's law).

Hence, the <em>complete combustion reaction</em> that has a ratio of 100 ml of gaseous hydrocarbon to 300 ml of oxygen, is that whose mole ratio is 1 mol hydrocarbon : 3 mol of oxygen.

Then, you must write the balanced chemical equations for the complete combustion of the four hydrocarbons in the list of choices, and conclude which has such mole ratio (1 mol hydrocarbon : 3 mol oxygen).

A complete combustion reaction of a hydrocarbon is the reaction with oxygen that produces CO₂ and H₂O, along with the release of heat and light.

<u>a. C₂H₄:</u>

  • C₂H₄ (g) + 3O₂ (g) → 2CO₂(g)  + 2H₂O (g)

Precisely, for this reaction the mole ratio is 1 mol C₂H₄: 2 mol O₂, hence, this is the right choice.

The following analysis just shows that the other options are not right.

<u>b. C₂H₂:</u>

  • 2C₂H₂ (g) + 5O₂ (g) → 4CO₂(g)  + 2H₂O (g)

The mole ratio for this reaction is 2 mol C₂H₂ :5 mol O₂.

<u>с. С₃Н₈</u>

  • C₃H₈ (g) + 5O₂ (g) → 3CO₂(g)  + 4H₂O (g)

The mole ratio is 1 mol C₃H₈ : 5 mol O₂

<u>d. C₂H₆</u>

  • 2C₂H₆ (g) +7 O₂ (g) → 4CO₂(g)  + 6H₂O (g)

The mole ratio is 2 mol C₂H₆ : 7 mol O₂

What is the concentration of Htions at a pH = 11?
Lostsunrise [7]
Answer:
a) 1 x 10^-11 mol/L
b) 1 x 10^-6 mol/L
c) 1 x 10^-5 fewer H+ ions

Explanation

pH stands for Power of Hydrogen, the more acidic a substance is, the more H+ ions it has rendering the substance acidic. a pH of 1 means the concentration of H+ ions is 1 x 10^-1. A pH of 7 means the concentration of H+ ions is 1 x 10^-7 and so on.

10^-11 has 10^-5 more H+ ions than 10^-6

Hope this helps :)

0.00099989<br> 3 sig figs, scientific notation
mixas84 [53]

You’d need to lower the exponent because rounding to 3 sig figs changes the 9’s to - 1000. Keep the 0’s.
