Answer:
Explanation:
If the enzyme active site is complementary to the substrate conformation rather than to the transition state, it is unlikely that the reaction will proceed and release a product, because the enzyme-substrate complex will be tightly bound (ΔG will raise).
On the other hand, when the enzyme active site is complementary to the transition state, the substrate will not be tightly bound and will be more prone to be transformed into the product (<u>ΔG will be lowered</u>) and afterward, be released.
The weak interactions (non-covalent bonds) will stabilize the energy of the transition state and reduce its energy, thus lowering the activation energy). If the transition state is stable, it will form more easily and<u> the reaction will be more likely to proceed.</u>

Answer:
Four substitution products are obtained. The carbocation that forms can react with either nucleophile (H2O or CH3OH) from either the top or bottom side of the molecule
Explanation:
An SN1 reaction usually involves the formation of a carbocation in the slow rate determining step. This carbocation is now attacked by a nucleophile in a subsequent fast step to give the desired product.
However, the product is obtained as a racemic mixture because the nucleophile may attack from the top or bottom of the carbocation hence both attacks are equally probable.
The attacking nucleophile in this case may be water or CH3OH
By using thermal energy which is also heat energy the substance in cup A will melt becoming a liquid behaving like the substance in cup B
B - two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom
Answer:
Explanation:
The question is not complete, the cmplete question is:
Identify one type of noncovalent bond present in each solid.
1) Table salt (NaCl) 2) Graphite (repeating)
a. hydrogen bonds
b. ionic interactions
c. van der Waals interactions
d. hydrophobic interactions
Answer:
1) Table salt
b. ionic interactions
Ionic bond are formed between atoms with incomplete outermost shell. Some atoms add electrons to their outermost shell to make the shell complete hence making it a negative ion while some atoms loses their electron to make the outermost shell complete becoming a positive ion. In NaCl, sodium (Na) has 1 electron in its outermost shell which it transfers to Cl which has 7 electrons in the outermost shell. Hence after the bonding the outermost shell of the atoms become complete.
2) Graphite
c. Van Der Waals interaction
Van der waal forces are weak interaction between molecules that exist between close atoms. Carbon atoms in graphite planes have covalent bond, these graphite planes are known as graphenes. Bonds between graphenes are very weak and are van der waals forces.
