Which of the following is/are true regarding initial and maximal velocity of enzyme-mediated reactions?

kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

a. True

b. True

c. False

d. True

Explanation:

a). A a very low substrate concentration , $$S$ . Thus according to the Machaelis-Menten equation becomes

$V_0 = \frac{V_{max} \times [S]}{Km}$

Here since the $V_0$ varies directly to the substrate concentration [S], the initial velocity is lower than the maximal velocity. Thus option (a) is true.

b). The Michaelis -Menten kinetics equation states that :

$V_0 = \frac{V_{max} \times [S]}{Km+[S]}$

Here the initial velocity changes directly with the substrate concentration as $V_0$ is directly proportional to [S]. But $V_{max}$ is same for any particular concentration of the enzymes. Thus, option (b) is true.

c). As the substrate concentration increases, the initial velocity also increases. Thus option (c) is false.

d). Option (d) explains the procedures to estimate the initial velocity which is correct. Thus, option (d) is true.

For the chemical reaction , I identify the reactant and the products .

svetlana [45]

The reactant is Mercury (II) Oxide while the products are Mercury and Oxygen separately.

This is because the reactants are typically always on the left side of the yields symbol. In this decomposition reaction, it would still be the same as at the end of the reaction, there were to products produced: Mercury and Oxygen.

Products tend to always be on the right side of the yields symbol, they're what comes out of a reaction no matter what type.

Hope this helps!

Predict which of the following pairs of solutions, when mixed together, will cause a precipitate to form. (Select all that apply

Kay [80]

Answer:

25 mL of 1 × 10–5 M Co(NO₃)₂ and 75 mL of 5 × 10–4 M Na₂S

500 mL of 7.5 × 10–4 M AlCl₃ and 100 mL of 1.7 × 10–5 M Hg₂(NO₃)₂.

650 mL of 0.0080 M K₂SO₄ and 175 mL of 0.15 M AgNO₃

Explanation:

When 2 compounds that produce an insoluble substance are mixed together, <em>A precipitate will be formed if Q of reaction > Ksp</em>

For the solutions:

1.5 L of 0.025 M BaCl₂ and 1.25L of 0.014 M Pb(NO₃)₂.

Ksp is:

PbCl₂(s) ⇄ Pb²⁺(aq) + 2Cl⁻(aq)

Ksp = 2.4x10⁻⁴ = [Pb²⁺][Cl⁻]²

Molar concentration of each ion is:

[Pb²⁺] = 1.25L ₓ (0.014mol / L) = 0.0175mol / 2.75L = 6.36x10⁻³M

[Cl⁻] = 2 ₓ 1.5L ₓ (0.025mol / L) = 0.075mol / 2.75L = 0.0273M

Replacing in Ksp expression to find Q:

Q = [6.36x10⁻³M][0.0273M]² = 4.73x10⁻⁶

As Q < Ksp, the mixture will not produce a precipitate.

25 mL of 1 × 10–5 M Co(NO₃)₂ and 75 mL of 5 × 10–4 M Na₂S

Ksp is:

CoS(s) ⇄ Co²⁺(aq) + S²⁻(aq)

Ksp = 4.0x10⁻²¹ = [Co²⁺][S²⁻]

Molar concentration of each ion is:

[Co²⁺] = 0.025L ₓ (1x10⁻⁵mol / L) = 2.5x10⁻⁷mol / 0.1L = 2.5x10⁻⁶M

[S²⁻] = 0.075L ₓ (5x10⁻⁴mol / L) = 3.75x10⁻⁵mol / 0.1L = 3.75x10⁻⁴M

Replacing in Ksp expression to find Q:

Q = [2.5x10⁻⁶M][3.75x10⁻⁴M] = 9.38x10⁻⁶

As Q > Ksp, the mixture will produce a precipitate.

500 mL of 7.5 × 10–4 M AlCl₃ and 100 mL of 1.7 × 10–5 M Hg₂(NO₃)₂.

Ksp is:

Hg₂Cl₂(s) ⇄ 2Hg⁺(aq) + 2Cl⁻(aq)

Ksp = 3.5x10⁻¹⁸ = [Hg⁺]²[Cl⁻]²

Molar concentration of each ion is:

[Hg⁺] = 2ₓ0.100L ₓ (1.7x10⁻⁵mol / L) = 3.4x10⁻⁶mol / 0.6L = 5.67x10⁻⁶M

[Cl⁻] = 3 ₓ 0.500L ₓ (7.5x10⁻⁴mol / L) = 1.125x10⁻³mol / 0.6L = 1.88x10⁻³M

Replacing in Ksp expression to find Q:

Q = [5.67x10⁻⁶M]²[1.88x10⁻³M]² = 1.14x10⁻⁶

As Q > Ksp, the reaction will produce a precipitate.

650 mL of 0.0080 M K₂SO₄ and 175 mL of 0.15 M AgNO₃

Ksp is:

Ag₂SO₄(s) ⇄ 2Ag⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq)

Ksp = 1.5x10⁻⁵ = [Ag⁺]²[SO₄²⁻]

Molar concentration of each ion is:

[Ag⁺] = 0.175L ₓ (0.15mol / L) = 0.02625mol / 0.825L = 0.0318M

[SO₄²⁻] = 0.650L ₓ (0.080mol / L) = 0.052mol / 0.825L = 0.0630M

Replacing in Ksp expression to find Q:

Q = [0.0318M]²[0.0630M] = 6.37x10⁻⁵

As Q > Ksp, the reaction will produce a precipitate.

Which equation shows a conservation of mass?

pychu [463]

(4) PCl5--> PCl3+ Cl2 is the correct answer because we both have 1 P atom and 5 Cl atoms on both sides, and thus the masses of the elements don't change.
Hope this would help~
