explain why conductors and insulators are both required to construct the electrical wiring in your home

Conductors are required to transmit electricity to various parts of the home. These take the form of the copper in the wires. Insulators separate various electrical conduits from each other and external bodies, as well as protecting the conductors from the elements. These take the form of the plastic sheathing over the wires.

As conductors let electrons pass through them easily, when there is a current, the conductor lets the electrons pass thru them giving the person a shock. This is why we need insulators. But having only insulators are also a problem as the insulator won't let electrons pass thru them not giving out electricity in your house

What is the molarity of HCl if 34.81 mL of a solution of HCl contain 0.3297 g of HCl?

Temka [501]

Answer:

0.2598 M

Explanation:

Molarity is mol/L, so we have to convert the grams to moles and the mL to L. To convert between grams and moles you need the molar mass of the compound, which is 36.46g/mol.

$0.3297gHCl*\frac{1molHCl}{36.46gHCL} = 0.00904279 mol HCl$

$34.81 mLHCl * \frac{1L}{1000L} = 0.03481 L HCl$

$\frac{0.00904279molHCl}{0.03481 L HCl} = 0.25977554 mol/L$

Round to the lowest number of significant figures = 0.2598 M

One of the many remarkable enzymes in the human body is carbonic anhydrase, which catalyzes the interconversion of carbon dioxid

natka813 [3]

Answer:

Enzyme is carbonic anhydrase

Substrate is $CO_2$

Turnover number is $10^{7}$

Explanation:

An enzyme is used by a living organism as a catalyst to perform a specific biochemical reaction.

A substrate is a molecule upon which an enzyme acts.

Turnover number refers to the number of substrate molecules transformed by a single enzyme molecule per minute. Here, the enzyme is the rate-limiting factor.

Here,

Enzyme is carbonic anhydrase

Substrate is $CO_2$

Turnover number is $10^{7}$
