Answer:

The answer is IONIC BOND

Explanation:

Steroidogenic acute regulatory, (StAR) protein is a type of globular protein, which allows it act as an active catalyst on substrates. Because the substrates on which enzymes act usually have higher molecular weights of several hundred as compared to the enzymes, only a fraction of the enzyme's surface is in contact with the substrate. This region of contact called the <em>active site</em>, is as a result of the protein folding itself into a tertiary structure.

Once the correct substrate has bound at the active site of the enzyme, an enzyme-substrate complex is created. The substrate is usually held in the complex by combinations of electrical attraction, hydrophobic repulsion, or hydrogen bonding between and from the amino acid; the strongest of which is the ionic/electrostatic bonding due to larger amount of ionic "R" groups in the protein structure.

So whilst all these inter-molecular interactions are possible, the strongest would be <u>ionic bond.</u>

Zinc will displace copper from a solution of copper sulfate, and magnesium will displace zinc from a solution of zinc sulfate. W
Anna [14]

Answer:

The displacement reactions are regarded as redox reactions because they involve the formal transfer of electrons from one chemical specie to the other

2) The series of reactivity of the metals in the order of increasing reactivity are;

  • Copper

           ↓

  • Zinc

           ↓

  • Magnesium

Explanation:

1) Redox (oxidation-reduction) reaction is a chemical reaction involving the loss and gain of electrons from one chemical species to another, where the chemical species that undergoes oxidation, loses electrons and is termed the reducing agent, while the other chemical species that undergoes reduction, gains electrons, and is termed the oxidizing agent

2) The redox reaction can being based on the affinity for electrons depends on the positions of the reactants in the electrochemical series as well as the chemical reactivity of the metals with zinc being a stronger reducing agent and more chemically reactive than copper and magnesium being a stronger reducing agent and more chemically reactive than zinc

Least  reactive (Cu)  <     (Zn)        < Mg Most reactive

Copper                     <      Zinc       < Magnesium.

Given the atomic mass of select elements, calculate the molar mass of each salt.
arlik [135]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Molar mass is obtained as the sum of relative atomic masses as follow;

For CaBr = 40.08 + 79.90 = 119.98 g/mol

For BeBr =  9.012 + 79.90 = 88.912 g/mol

For CdBr2 = 112.41 + 2(79.90) = 272.21 g/mol

For CuBr2 = 63.55 + 2(79.90) = 223.35 g/mol

In a simple distillation setup, what is the sequence of equipment from the bench top to the round bottom flask
Julli [10]

In a simple distillation setup, the sequence of equipment from the bench top to the round bottom flask is:

  • Thermometer
  • Distillation flask
  • Liebig condenser
  • Round bottom flask
  • Bunsen burner

<h3>What is Distillation?</h3>

This is the process in which a mixture is separated through selective boiling and condensation.

The distillation flask and liebig condenser are usually located above the round bottom flask in the set up.
