In a solid, molecules are packed together, and it keeps its shape. Liquids take the shape of the container. Gases spread out to fill the container. Solid is one of the three main states of matter, along with liquid and gas.
Hope that helps!
Answer:
c. By itself, heme is not a good oxygen carrier. It must be part of a larger protein to prevent oxidation of the iron.
e. Both hemoglobin and myoglobin contain a prosthetic group called heme, which contains a central iron ( Fe ) (Fe) atom.
f. Hemoglobin is a heterotetramer, whereas myoglobin is a monomer. The heme prosthetic group is entirely buried within myoglobin.
Explanation:
The differences between hemoglobin and myoglobin are most important at the level of quaternary structure. Hemoglobin is a tetramer composed of two each of two types of closely related subunits, alpha and beta. Myoglobin is a monomer (so it doesn't have a quaternary structure at all). Myoglobin binds oxygen more tightly than does hemoglobin. This difference in binding energy reflects the movement of oxygen from the bloodstream to the cells, from hemoglobin to myoglobin.
Myoglobin binds oxygen
The binding of O 2 to myoglobin is a simple equilibrium reaction:
When an organism is buried quickly there is less decay and better the chance for it to be persevere. The hard parts of the organism such as bones, shells, and teeth have a better chance of becoming fossils that softer parts of the organism. HARD BONES.
Answer:
ΔH°rxn = - 433.1 KJ/mol
Explanation:
- CH4(g) + 4Cl2(g) → CCl4(g) + 4HCl(g)
⇒ ΔH°rxn = 4ΔH°HCl(g) + ΔH°CCl4(g) - 4ΔH°Cl2(g) - ΔH°CH4(g)
∴ ΔH°Cl2(g) = 0 KJ/mol.....pure element in its reference state
∴ ΔH°CCl4(g) = - 138.7 KJ/mol
∴ ΔH°HCl(g) = - 92.3 KJ/mol
∴ ΔH°CH4(g) = - 74.8 KJ/mol
⇒ ΔH°rxn = 4(- 92.3 KJ/mol) + (- 138.7 KJ/mol) - 4(0 KJ/mol) - (- 74.8 KJ/mol)
⇒ ΔH°rxn = - 369.2 KJ/mol - 138.7 KJ/mol - 0 KJ/mol + 74.8 KJ/mol
⇒ ΔH°rxn = - 433.1 KJ/mol
