Which of the following statements are true with respect to enzyme activity? Check all that apply. View Available Hint(s) Check a
tiny-mole [99]

Answer: Enzymes speed up the reaction rate.

Enzymes are regenerated when the reaction is completed.

Enzymes affect the reaction pathway by forming an enzyme-substrate complex.

Explanation:

A catalyst is a substance which increases the rate of a reaction by taking the reaction through a different path which involves lower activation energy and thus more molecules can cross the energy barrier and convert to products.

The catalyst itself does not take part in the chemical reaction and is regenerated as such at the end.

Enzymes are biocatalysts and are highly specific in their action. The specificity of enzymes is due to the presence of some specific regions called as active sites. These active sites form weak bonds with substrate molecules.  

The specific binding leads to formation of an enzyme substrate complex which accounts for high specificity of enzyme catalyzed reactions.

Once a proper orientation is achieved, substrate molecules react to form products and products leave the enzyme surface as they do not have any affinity towards the enzyme site and are regenerated at the end.

Enzymes work best in optimum temperature and pH range.The enzyme gets denaturated at high pH and temperature.

Students working in lab accidentally spilled 17 l of 3.0 m h2so4 solution. they find a large container of acid neutralizer that
jek_recluse [69]

Answer is: 8568.71 of baking soda.

Balanced chemical reaction: H₂SO₄ + 2NaHCO₃ → Na₂SO₄ + 2CO₂ + 2H₂O.

V(H₂SO₄) = 17 L; volume of the sulfuric acid.

c(H₂SO₄) = 3.0 M, molarity of sulfuric acid.

n(H₂SO₄) = V(H₂SO₄) · c(H₂SO₄).

n(H₂SO₄) = 17 L · 3 mol/L.

n(H₂SO₄) = 51 mol; amount of sulfuric acid.

From balanced chemical reaction: n(H₂SO₄) : n(NaHCO₃) = 1 :2.

n(NaHCO₃) = 2 · 51 mol.

n(NaHCO₃) = 102 mol, amount of baking soda.

m(NaHCO₃) = n(NaHCO₃) · M(NaHCO₃).

m(NaHCO₃) = 102 mol · 84.007 g/mol.

m(NaHCO₃) = 8568.714 g; mass of baking soda.

Why is it important for science to keep testing a hypothesis even after they’ve found it to be true?
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Repeated tests help determine whether the hypothesis is always true in different circumstances. Repeatedly testing a hypothesis qualifies it to be accepted as a theory.

What phase change is the following substance undergoing?
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

b melting

Explanation:

The phase change the substance is undergoing is from solid to liquid and this is called melting.

  • To understand this process, we need to know the the substance changing.
  • A substance that contains particles that are not easily compressed and packed is a solid.
  • Solids have fixed shapes and volumes.
  • Liquids can easily flow although they cannot also be easily compressed.

The phase change from solid to liquid is facilitated by a melting process.
