Many cells make and use an enzyme, called catalase, to facilitate the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). The products of

the decomposition are hydrogen (H2) and oxygen (O2). What is the effect of catalase on the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide? A. It decreases the activation energy needed to start the reaction. B. It decreases the total energy released by the reaction. C. It increases the total energy absorbed by the reaction. D. It changes the ratio of the amounts of the two products.

Answer:

A. It decreases the activation energy needed to start the reaction

Explanation:

Organic catalyst which speed up the rate of organic chemical reaction is living cells are called enzymes.They have specific reaction site called active sites.This must be in prefect shape with the substrate for the organic chemical reaction to take place

When this occurs the minimum amount of  energy of  reaction to  activate or stimulate  the the atoms and molecules of the substrate to undergo chemical reaction is  lowered.This energy of reaction is celled activation energy.

Catalase thought its active sites lowers the activation energy so that the molecules of H2O2 could break down to C02 and H2 faster,thereby reducing the time for theses product to form.The is the general roles of enzyme.To increase the rate of chemical reaction,by reducing the activation  energy.

You are served dessert at a restaurant. You want to know what % of the calories in the dessert are from fat. The menu states tha
jasenka [17]

Answer:

39.82 %

Explanation:

Proteins and carbohydrates provide 4 calories per gram. On the other hand, fats provide 9 calories.

We can first calculate the calories of protein + carbohydrates:

       (30g + 4g) x 4 = 136 calories

And we must calculate the calories provided by fat:

        10g x 9 = 90 calories

Now to get the percentage we must see how many calories the dessert has in total:

          136 + 90 = 226 cal

This represents 100% of calories. And now we need to find out how much 90 calories are from the total.

           226 cal -----> 100%

             90 cal ------> X

       (90 x 100) / 226 = 39.82 %
