Answer:

Protons carry a positive electrical charge and they alone determine the charge of the nucleus. Adding or removing protons from the nucleus changes the charge of the nucleus and changes that atom's atomic number. For example, adding a proton to the nucleus of an atom of hydrogen creates an atom of helium.

Answer:

In the unfolded polypeptide, there are ordered solvation shells of water around the protein

groups. The number of water molecules involved in such ordered shells is reduced when the protein

folds, resulting in higher entropy. Hence, the lower free energy of the native conformation.

Describe what half-life is. answer in a paragraph please.

dangina [55]

Half-life is defined as the quantity to reduce to half of its initial value.

Explanation:

The term half-life is generally used in nuclear physics which describes how long a stable atom can survive a radioactive decay or how quickly an unstable stable atom can undergo radioactive decay. Half-life is a constant and does not have any units.

The formula to calculate half-life:

N(t) = $\bold{N_{0} e^{-\lambda t}}$
