2. B because it has a lower activation energy.
idk because you have no picture with the lines on it
Answer:
2H2O2(aq)→ 2H2O(l) O2(g) : The oxidation number of oxygen for each compound is -1, -2, 0
Explanation:
In peroxides the oxidation state of oxygen is -1, since one oxygen bonds to the other oxygen and a hydrogen and the bound oxygen captures the electron of the remaining hydrogen. Through a scheme would be
H --- O --- O --- H
We remember that oxygen needs two electrons to get to have the configuration of the nearest noble gas (Lewis octet rule). In Peroxides, the oxygen is linked by covalent bonds. If we take it strictly, peroxide is a grouping of two oxygen, having the whole valence -2. which is why it is usually said that it is when oxygen has a valence -1
As we said the oxidation state is -2, the one that appears in the water molecule, since Hydrogen acts with valence +1 and it is 2 atoms that give up electrons to compensate for oxygen.
In the O2 it acts with valence 0 since we talk about gas in its elementary state. All diatomic molecules in their elemental state, generally gases or metals in solid state, act with a valence of 0.
Answer:
yep.. I am wide awake here.
Answer: Every enzyme has a specific name that can give us insight into the specific reaction that that enzyme can catalyze. We divide them into six different categories.
1) Oxidoreductase - includes two different types of reactions by transferring electrons from either molecule A to B or vice versa. It is involved in oxidizing electrons away from a molecule.
2) Hydrolase - uses water to divide a molecule into two other molecules.
3) Transferase - you move some functional group X from molecule B to molecule A
4) Ligase - catalyzes reactions between two molecules, A and B, that are combining to form a complex between the two. (example: DNA replication)
5) Lyase - divides a molecule into two other molecules without using water and without reducing or oxidation
