1)water has a great capacity to hold a moderate heat energy
Answer:
The biological significance is that it is the normal human body temperature and also the optimum temperature of the enzyme.
Explanation:
- Enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up the rate of chemical reactions.
- Enzymes catalyze specific reactions by working on a specific substrate to convert it into a product.
- The rate of enzyme activity depends on several factors which include pH, temperature, substrate concentration, and enzyme concentration among others.
- Enzymes work best at a specific pH and temperature known as optimum pH and optimum temperature respectively.
- In this case, enzyme amylase works best at a temperature of 37° C which is equivalent to the normal human body temperature.
Answer:
1.23 M
Explanation:
Molarity of a substance , is the number of moles present in a liter of solution .
M = n / V
M = molarity
V = volume of solution in liter ,
n = moles of solute ,
Moles is denoted by given mass divided by the molecular mass ,
Hence ,
n = w / m
n = moles ,
w = given mass ,
m = molecular mass .
From the question ,
w = given mass of NaCl = 7.2 g
As we know , the molecular mass of NaCl = 58.5 g/mol
Moles is calculated as -
n = w / m = 7.2 g / 58.5 g/mol = 0.123 mol
Molarity is calculated as -
V = 100ml = 0.1 L (since , 1 ml = 1/1000L )
M = n / V = 0.123 mol / 0.1 L = 1.23 M
