Answer:  d. Increasing the amount of benzoquinone

Explanation:  The given situation can be written in terms of the equation as follows-

Catechol + Oxygen ⇆ Benzoquinone + water (catechol oxidase is the catalyst)

Le chatleir Principle for the system of equilibrium explains that whenever a reaction is being applied to the stress , the reaction will move in that direction in which the effect of stress is being lessened.

For example if there is a decrease in the concentration of the reactants, the equilibrium will shift to that direction in which the reactants concentration is being increased in order to maintain the equilibrium.

Thus the correct option is (D) as increasing the concentration of the benzoquinone, the equilibrium will shift in the direction in which its concentration is getting decreased, that is in backward reaction, thus decreasing the rate of reaction.

What is the likeliest m/z value for the base peak in the mass spectrum of 3-methylpentane?
Mashutka [201]

The base peak in the mass spectrum of 3-methylpentane has the most plausible value at m/z=57. Hydrocarbons often undergo mass spectroscopic fragmentation at a branch.

<h3>What does the mass spectrometry Mz value mean?</h3>

The horizontal axis in a mass spectrum is stated in units of mass divided by charge number, or m/z. With GCMS, z is usually always 1, hence the mass is frequently determined by the m/z value.

<h3>What is the M Z of the base peak?</h3>

The base peak of the spectrum is defined as the peak with the arbitrary intensity value of 100. The molecular ion, which has a peak at m/z=72, is what determines the molecule's molecular mass.

Explain your reasoning to why the rusting of iron is a chemical change (evidence not needed but may add it) ​
Tju [1.3M]

When an iron object is left in damp air for a considerable time, it gets covered with a reddish- brown flaky substance called rust. ... Rusting of iron is a chemical change because a new substance iron oxide is formed. The presence of oxygen and water or water vapour is essential for rusting.
