Answer:

The main difference between amylopectin and glycogen is that amylopectin is an insoluble form whereas glycogen is a soluble form. Amylopectin is one of the two types of starch, which is the main form of storage polysaccharides in plants. Glycogen is the main storage polysaccharide in animals.

A possible mechanism for the gas phase reaction of NO and H2 is as follows: Step 1 2NO N2O2 Step 2 N2O2 + H2 N2O + H2O Step 3 N2

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Steps involved for the given reaction will be as follows.

Step 1: $2NO \Leftrightarrow N_{2}O_{2}$ (fast)

Rate expression for step 1 is as follows.

Rate = k $[NO]^{2}$

Step 2: $N_{2}O_{2} + H_{2} \rightarrow N_{2}O + H_{2}O$

This step 2 is a slow step. Hence, it is a rate determining step.

Step 3. $N_{2}O + H_{2} \rightarrow N_{2} + H_{2}O$ (fast)

Here, $N_{2}O_{2}$ is intermediate in nature.

All the steps are bimolecular and it is a second order reaction. Also, there is no catalyst present in this reaction.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement step 1 is the rate determining step, concerning this mechanism is not directly supported by the information provided.
