Select the true statements about denaturation.

Chemistry
1 answer:
fiasKO [112]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The correct options are: Denaturation of an enzyme will cause a loss of its catalytic activity.

Egg white meringue contains denatured egg white proteins.

A denatured protein has a different tertiary structure than its native state.

 Protein denaturation involves cleavage of its peptide bonds.

Explanation:

Protein denaturation is the breakdown of tertiary or quaternary junctions of proteins, which are the easiest to break compared to primary and secondary.

Denaturation can arise due to a change in pH or due to excess temperature. An enzyme is generally a protein and if it is subjected to acidic acids or high temperatures, it denatures, ceasing to perform its function.

Zymogen is a non-denatured INACTIVE proenzyme, that is why we consider that option false along with those that were not selected.

1) A mixture of anhydrous sodium carbonate and sodium hydrogencarbonate of mass 10.000 g was heated until it reached a constant
vodomira [7]

The masses of the components are obtained as;

  • Sodium hydrogen carbonate = 3.51 g
  • Sodium carbonate =  8.708 g
<h3>What is decomposition?</h3>

The term decomposition has to do with the breakdown of the given substance into its components. The components of sodium hydrogen carbonate could be identified as water vapor, carbon dioxide gas and sodium carbonate. Among these products that have been listed here, we can see that it is only the sodium carbonate that remains as a solid. The others are gases that move away from the system that is under study.

Now putting down the equation of the reaction, we have;

2NaHCO_{3} (s) ----- > Na_{2} CO_{3} (s) + CO_{2} (g) + H_{2} O(g)

Now, the loss in  mass must be due to the carbon dioxide and the water. Hence we obtain the loss in mass to be 10.000 g -  8.708 g = 1.292 g

Mass of sodium hydrogen carbonate = 2 * 88 g/mol * 1.292 g/62 g/mol

= 3.51 g

g All of the molecules below have polar bonds but only one of the molecules is a polar molecule. Which one is a polar molecule?
lbvjy [14]

Answer: NF_3

Explanation:

Geometrical symmetry of the molecule and the polarity of the bonds determine the polarity of the molecule.

The molecule that has zero dipole moment that means it is a geometrically symmetric molecule and the molecule which has some net dipole moment means it is a geometrically asymmetric molecule.

As the molecule is symmetric, the dipole moment will be zero as dipole moments cancel each other and the molecule will be non-polar.

As the molecule is asymmetric, the dipole moment will not be zero and the molecule will be polar.

Example: NF_3

Thus, we can say that NF_3 is a polar molecule.

Which compound most likely contains polar covalent bonds?
marin [14]
I would say water; water is extremely polar, and this is why it can break one of the strongest bonds, ionic bonds. NaCl, as you probably know, is a salt, and dissolves in water. However, the ionic bond holding the Na+ and the Cl- is extremely strong; the boiling point of NaCl is at 1413 degrees celcius (water is at 100 degrees celcius). This means that it requires A LOT of energy to break the bond, but water is able to dissolve and break the bond very easily. It is very polar, so I would answer your question with water. And the bond connecting the H and the O is a covalent bond.
