A student begins a kinetics experiment with a solution containing 0.050 % starch. At time zero (t = 0.00 min), the student adds

an enzyme that catalyzes the decomposition of starch. At t = 1.00 min, the concentration of starch has decreased to 0.028 %. Compute the average rate of disappearance of starch. Specify your answer in units of % starch/min

Answer:

- 0.022% starch/min

Explanation:

Initial Conc. = 0.050 %

Final conc. = 0.028 %

Time = 1 min

Rate of Reaction = Rate of disappearance  = Change in concentration of starch  / time

Rate of disappearance = [0.028 - 0.050 ] / 1

Rate of disappearance = 0.022 / 1 = - 0.022% starch/min

The negative sign denotes that the starch is disappearing.

What is the equation for photosynthesis?
AlladinOne [14]

Answer: the process of photosynthesis is commonly written as: 6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2. This means that the reactants, six carbon dioxide molecules and six water molecules, are converted by light energy captured by chlorophyll (implied by the arrow) into a sugar molecule and six oxygen molecules, the products.

A car moves down the street at 45 kph. The driver takes his foot off the gas pedal but does not brake. Which is the correct expl
nexus9112 [7]
Answer: Friction.

Explanation: Even though the driver has taken the foot off thr gas pedal, the acceleration of the car decreases and the friction continues.

The car slows down because the opposite force of friction continues to act and the acceleration in forward direction is continuous decreasing. Hence, the car slows down.

<h3>1</h3>

Species shown in bold are precipitates.

  • Ca(NO₃)₂ + 2 KOH → Ca(OH)₂ + 2 KNO₃
  • Ca(NO₃)₂ + Na₂C₂O₄ → CaC₂O₄ + 2 NaNO₃
  • Cu(NO₃)₂ + 2 KI → CuI₂ + 2 KI
  • Cu(NO₃)₂ + 2 KOH → Cu(OH)₂ + 2 KNO₃
  • Cu(NO₃)₂ + Na₂C₂O₄ → CuC₂O₄ + 2 NaNO₃
  • Ni(NO₃)₂ + 2 KOH → Ni(OH)₂ + 2 KNO₃
  • Ni(NO₃)₂ + Na₂C₂O₄ → NiC₂O₄ + 2 NaNO₃
  • Zn(NO₃)₂ + 2 KOH → Zn(OH)₂ + 2 KNO₃
  • Zn(NO₃)₂ + Na₂C₂O₄ → ZnC₂O₄ + 2 NaNO₃

<h3>2</h3>

A double replacement reaction takes place only if it reduces in the concentration of ions in the solution. For example, the reaction between Ca(NO₃)₂ and KOH produces Ca(OH)₂. Ca(OH)₂ barely dissolves. The reaction has removed Ca²⁺ and OH⁻ ions from the solution.

Some of the reactions lead to neither precipitates nor gases. They will not take place since they are not energetically favored.


<h3>3</h3>

Compare the first and last row:

Both Ca(NO₃)₂ and Zn(NO₃)₂ react with KOH. However, between the two precipitates formed, Ca(OH)₂ is more soluble than Zn(OH)₂.

As a result, add the same amount of KOH to two Ca(NO₃)₂ and Zn(NO₃)₂ of equal concentration. The solution that end up with more precipitate shall belong to Zn(NO₃)₂.


<h3>4</h3>

Compare the second and third row:

Cu(NO₃)₂ reacts with KI, but Ni(NO₃)₂ does not. Thus, add equal amount of KI to the two unknowns. The solution that forms precipitate shall belong to Cu(NO₃)₂.

A certain intermolecular force is created due to a brief concentration of electrons between nonpolar molecules. What best explai
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

The correct answer is D

Explanation:

Many substances hold their molecules together in the liquid or solid bosom. This is due, in addition to the pressure and temperature conditions, by the forces of Van der Waals. These are still produced in nonpolar molecules by the movement of electrons through the molecules; in extremely short periods of time, their electrons "charge" towards one end of the molecule, producing small dipoles and keeping the molecules very close to each other.
