Dalton's theory explained that all matter constitutes of atoms that are indivisible and indestructible. They combine in definite ratios and posses definite masses. He considered atom to be the smallest particles that the matter is composed of. He basically explained about the chemical properties of matter.
After many more researches, it was explained that atom is not the smallest particle that the matter is composed of but it contains many subatomic particles like protons, neutrons and electrons that the matter is made of. Dalton could not explain about the nuclear property of atom.
They can’t have more than 8 valence electrons. Since fluorine is in group 7 it can only bound to one other molecule
Sulphur, Chlorine, Argon, Silicon and Aluminium are all in the same period as Phosphorus.
Answer: C. enzyme
Explanation:
A catalyst is a substance which increases the rate of a reaction by taking the reaction through a different path which involves lower activation energy and thus more molecules can cross the energy barrier and convert to products.
The catalyst itself does not take part in the chemical reaction and is regenerated as such at the end.
Enzymes are proteins that reduce the activation energy of biological reaction. Enzymes increase the speed of a reaction and help it to run faster. Thus they are also called as bio catalysts.
Activated complex is the transition state which is very unstable and is formed during the course when reactants are converted to products.
