Chemistry
1 answer:
lapo4ka [179]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Temperature

PH

Explanation:

Enzymes are organic catalysts that speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction. Their activities are affected by temperature and pH of the environment among other factors.

  • At extreme temperatures, enzymes can easily be denatured and they will cease to act.
  • At extremes of pH, they can also be adversely affect.

Enzymes generally have temperature and pH window for their activity.

How does the density of a gas depend on the molar mass of the gas?
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

The density of the ideal gas is directly proportional to its molar mass.

Explanation:

Density is a scalar quantity that is denoted by the symbol ρ (rho). It is defined as the ratio of the mass (m) of the given sample and the total volume (V) of the sample.

\rho = \frac{m}{V}                          ......equation (1)

According to the ideal gas law for ideal gas:

PV = nRT                                       ......equation (2)

Here, V is the volume of gas, P is the pressure of gas, T is the absolute temperature, R is Gas constant and n is the number of moles of gas

As we know,

The number of moles: n = \frac{m}{M}

where m is the given mass of gas and M is the molar mass of the gas

So equation (2) can be written as:

PV = \frac{m}{M}RT

⇒ PM= \frac{m}{V} RT

⇒ \frac{PM}{RT}= \frac{m}{V}             ......equation (3)

Now from equation (1) and (3), we get

\frac{PM}{RT}= \frac{m}{V} = \rho  

⇒ Density of an ideal gas: \rho = \frac{PM}{RT}  

⇒ <em>Density of an ideal gas: ρ ∝ molar mass of gas: M</em>

<u>Therefore, the density of the ideal gas is directly proportional to its molar mass. </u>
