Table Giving Answer
Element Atomic mass % Amount
Mg_24 24 79 18.96
Mg_25 25 10 2.5
Mg_26 26 11 2.86
Total 24.32
Discussion
The method of calculation for this table, which was done in Excel (a spread sheet) is shown below. Assume that there is 100 grams of material of "pure" magnesium. What is it's mass?
<em><u>Sample Calculation</u></em>
The the sample atomic mass = 24
Mass = % * sample atomic mass
Mass = 79% * 24
Mass = (79/100) * 24
Mass = 18.96
<em><u>Note</u></em>
The other two elements are found exactly the same as the sample calculation.
Then all you do is add the 3 masses together.
Answer
The mass of Mg to 1 decimal place is 24.3 <<<< Answer.
The answer is 1023 particles
Answer:
The concentration of protons affects an enzyme's folded structure and reactivity.
Explanation:
Enzymes act within narrow pH limits (optimal reaction pH). Since most enzymes have a protein structure, the variation in pH or temperature affects their enzymatic activity.
To catalyze a reaction, an enzyme binds to one or more reagent molecules. These molecules are the substrates of the enzyme.
In some reactions, a substrate breaks into several products. In others, two substrates join together to create a larger molecule or to exchange parts. In fact, for any biological reaction that can occur to you, there is probably an enzyme to accelerate it.
The part of the enzyme where the substrate binds is called the active site.
The amino acid residues of the active site often have acidic or basic properties that are important for catalysis. Changes in pH can affect these residues and make binding with the substrate difficult.
