<u>Answer:</u> The chemical equation is written below.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Transmutation is defined as the process in which one chemical isotope gets converted to another chemical isotope. The number of protons or neutrons in the isotope gets changed.

The chemical equation for the reaction of curium-242 nucleus with alpha particle (helium nucleus) follows:

_{96}^{242}\textrm{Cm}+_4^2\textrm{He}\rightarrow _{98}^{245}\textrm{Cf}+_0^1\textrm{n}

The product formed in the nuclear reaction are californium-245 nucleus and a neutron particle.

Which of the following is false? a. an apoenzyme can catalyze its reaction without its cofactor b an organic cofactor can be cal
ozzi

Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A protein part of an enzyme is known as an apoenzyme. An apoenzyme combines with a cofactor, it is known as holoenzyme.

Without a cofactor an apoenzyme cannot function as cofactor helps in the formation of an active enzyme system and provides a specific site on enzyme for the substrate.

Whereas a non-protein chemical compound or metal ion that helps in the activity of enzyme as a catalyst is known as a cofactor. A metal ion cofactor can be bound directly to the enzyme or to a coenzyme.

The organic non-protein molecules which bind to the protein molecule to form an active enzyme is known as a coenzyme. Coenzymes are small size molecules which help the enzymes to act as a catalyst.

Therefore, we can conclude that the statement an apoenzyme can catalyze its reaction without its cofactor, is false.
