Answer:

Explanation:

The stereochemical structures of the two compounds of the fumarase-catalyzed reaction are in the attachment below. The reaction been referred to is illustrated in the equation below

HOOCCH=CHCOOH + H₂O ==> HOOCCH₂CH(OH)COOH

The compounds attached are trans-2-butenedioate (which is one of the reactants) and (s)-2-hydroxysuccinate (which is the product formed)

Note that stereoisomers are isomers that differ in spatial orientation, thus there are other isomers that could contain the same atoms and have slightly but different spatial orientation such as cis-2-butenedioate and (r)-2-hydroxysuccinate

A. True <br> b. False a chemical species is either an acid or a base, it cannot function as both

ivann1987 [24]

False They can function as both. An example is Aluminium Oxide. These kind of substances are called "Amphoteric", they can behave as both acids and bases.

What conversion factor would you use to convert correctly from the mass of a given

statuscvo [17]

Answer: 1 mole of the substance is equal to its molar mass or vice versa.

Explanation: Example: 18 g H2O x 1 mole H2O / 18g H2O = 1 mole H2O

A small motor does 4000 J of work in 20 s. What is the power of the motor in watts?

TEA [102]

Answer:

200 W

Explanation:

Formula of Power is

P= W/T

where

W= Work and T= Time

4000/20 = 200J/s or 200 W
