How does the shape of an enzyme affect its function?

lutik1710 [3]

Each enzyme's active site is suitable for one specific type of substrate – just like a lock that has the right shape for only one specific key. Changing the shape of the active site of an enzyme will cause its reaction to slow down until the shape has changed so much that the substrate no longer fits.

1. Compare and contrast the characteristics of metals and nonmetals.

Alona [7]

Answer:

1.Metals

These are very hard except sodium

These are malleable and ductile pieces

These are shiny

Electropositive in nature

Non-metals

These are soft except diamond

These are brittle and can break down into pieces

These are non-lustrous except iodine

Electronegative in nature

2. The electrochemical series helps to pick out substances that are good oxidizing agents and those which are good reducing agents.In an electrochemical series the species which are placed above hydrogen are more difficult to be reduced and their standard reduction potential values are negative.

3. Arrhenius theory, theory, introduced in 1887 by the Swedish scientist Svante Arrhenius, that acids are substances that dissociate in water to yield electrically charged atoms or molecules, called ions, one of which is a hydrogen ion (H+), and that bases ionize in water to yield hydroxide ions (OH−).

4. The common application of indicators is the detection of end points of titrations. The colour of an indicator alters when the acidity or the oxidizing strength of the solution, or the concentration of a certain chemical species, reaches a critical range of values.

Calcium hydroxide is a strong base but is not very soluble ( Ksp = 5.02 X 10-6 ). What is the pH of a saturated solution of Ca(O

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer : The pH of a saturated solution is, 12.33

Explanation : Given,

$K_{sp}$ = $5.02\times 10^{-6}$

First we have to calculate the solubility of $OH^-$ ion.

The balanced equilibrium reaction will be:

$Ca(OH)_2\rightleftharpoons Ca^{2+}+2OH^-$

Let the solubility will be, 's'.

The concentration of $Ca^{2+}$ ion = s

The concentration of $OH^-$ ion = 2s

The expression for solubility constant for this reaction will be,

$K_{sp}=[Ca^{2+}][OH^-]^2$

Let the solubility will be, 's'

$K_{sp}=(s)\times (2s)^2$

$K_{sp}=(4s)^3$

Now put the value of $K_[sp}$ in this expression, we get the solubility.

$5.02\times 10^{-6}=(4s)^3$

$s=1.079\times 10^{-2}M$

The concentration of $Ca^{2+}$ ion = s = $1.079\times 10^{-2}M$

The concentration of $OH^-$ ion = 2s = $2\times (1.079\times 10^{-2}M)=2.158\times 10^{-2}M$

First we have to calculate the pOH.

$pOH=-\log [OH^-]$

$pOH=-\log (2.158\times 10^{-2})$

$pOH=1.67$

Now we have to calculate the pH.

$pH+pOH=14\\\\pH=14-pOH\\\\pH=14-1.67=12.33$

Therefore, the pH of a saturated solution is, 12.33

A chemical reaction involves reactant species A, B, and C. Leaving all other factors identical, doubling the concentration of sp

umka21 [38]

Answer:

Rate = k . [B]² . [C]

Explanation:

The dependence of the reaction rate on the concentration of the reactants is given by the reaction order of each one, as shown in the rate equation.

$Rate=k.[A]^{x} .[B]^{y} .[C]^{z}$

where,

k is the rate constant

x, y, z are the reaction orders.

<em>The rate of reaction is not affected by changing the concentration of species A.</em> This means that the reaction order for A is x = 0 since when its concentration changes, the rate stays the same.

<em>Leaving all other factors identical, doubling the concentration of species B increases the rate by a factor of 4.</em> This means that the reaction order for B is y = 2, so when the concentration is doubled, the new rate is 2² = 4 times the initial rate.

The rate of the reaction is linearly dependent on the concentration of C. This means that the reaction order for C is z = 1, that is, a linear dependence.

All in all, the rate equation is:

Rate = k . [B]² . [C]
