Answer:
b) the metals strips
Explanation:
In an experimental design, an independent variable is a variable that is changed or manipulated in a series of experiments. An independent variable is not dependent on any other variable in the experiment. The hypothesis for this experiment is stated to be: "If the chemical activity of the metallic wrapper is increased, then less rusting of iron will occur. The independent variable relates to the type of metal wrapping strip, and the dependent variables are the amount of rusting and color of the water.
If you can't answer a question, then make an educated guess.
Answer:
- <u><em>The first statement is false: a.At equilibrium, equal amounts of products and reactants are present. ΔG° is a function of Keq.</em></u>
Explanation:
When one part of a statement is false, the whole statement is false.
At <em>equilibrium,</em> the amounts of products and reactants does not have to be equal.
At equlibrium the rates of the forward reaction and the reverse reaction must be equal.
An equilibrium reaction may be represented by:
That represents two reactions:
- Direct reaction: A + B → C + D (A and B yield C and D)
- Reverse reaction: A + B ← C + D (C and D yield A and B: note that the arrow goes from right to left)
So, it is when the direct and the forward rates are equal that there is not net change in the amounts of all the species and so the reaction is is equilibrium).
As per the other statement, both parts are true:
- When reactants become products, they do so through an intermediate transitrion state: when the reactants approach each other and collide with enough energy and appropiate position, the bonds start to break and the bonds of the products start to form. This is the transition state.
- Most biocatalysts are proteins: enzymes are simply proteins, with specific structures, that may accelerate or even deceralate biochemical reactions.
It's genre. Look for something either on a final or starting page near the cover, and check to look if it's non fiction, or anything else that could prove it as reliable.
