Which of the following best explains how hydrogen bonding aftects the heat of vaporization for water?

Biology
1 answer:
dlinn [17]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: A. The hydrogen bonds cause water to resist a change in temperature.

Explanation:

Heat of vaporization is defined as the amount of heat required to convert 1 mole of liquid to gaseous state.

Water has high heat of vaporization due to the presence of strong hydrogen bonds between  hydrogen and a electronegative element oxygen. As the water molecules are strongly bonded to each other, large amount of heat is required to raise the temperature of water.

The molecules will not be able to gain enough kinetic energy and thus temperature changes slowly.

<span>The enzyme is: ATP synthase.

ATP synthase is an enzymatic protein complex found in the mitochondrial ridges, the thylakoid membrane, and the plasma membrane of bacteria and archaea. The role of this membrane protein is to synthesize adenosine triphosphate (ATP) from the proton electrochemical gradient of protons maintained by the respiratory chain and adenosine diphosphate (ADP), as well as inorganic phosphate, according to the following reaction:ADP + Pi → ATP.
The synthesis of ATP is based on energy conversion, via conformational changes of the subunits.<span>A proton gradient on either side of the membrane into which the ATP synthases are inserted is necessary for their operation, which implies that the synthesis of ATP can not be done independently of a membrane. Within the mitochondrial inner membrane, it is the respiratory chain that provides the pH gradient by injecting protons into the intermembrane space during the transfer of electrons from one complex to another.</span></span>
