Part A: You are given a beaker containing a solution of an enzyme that hydrolyzes adenosine triphosphate (ATP) while it generate

s a lot of heat. You add a substantial amount of the sodium salt of ATP, and you measure the temperature of the beaker, and determine that nothing is happening. The enzyme is not performing the reaction. What is a reasonable chemical to add to the solution to get the enzyme to proceed with the hydrolysis of adenosine triphosphate?
Sulfur oxide,
Iron chloride,
magnesium chloride,
or add more sodium ATP.
Part B: You are investigating the reduction of oxygen that is performed by cytochrome c oxidase. As you start the reaction in a slightly acidic aqueous buffer with 2 mM Cu2SO4 and bubbling oxygen into the buffer. As the reaction proceeds, the solution slowly turns blue, what is happening?
a) Ozone is formed. This causes the solution to turn blue.
b) The copper is getting oxidized from Cu+ to Cu2+ and turns blue.
c) The cytochrome c oxidase protein is decomposing down to a blue product.
d) The pH of the solution is changing. Cu2SO4 is a pH indicator that turns blue when a solution becomes basic.
Part C: In the previous reaction, if you add a small amount of cyanide before adding the
Cu2SO4, the solution does not turn blue. What is a reasonable explanation?
a) The cyanide ion displaces the copper ions in the cytochrome c oxidase and stops the redox reaction.
b) The cyanide ion keeps the pH of the solution high. So the Cu2SO4 pH indicator does not show the decrease in pH.
c) The cyanide ion prevents the formation of ozone.

Answer:

1) magnesium chloride

2) b) The copper is getting oxidized from Cu+ to Cu2+ and turns blue.

Explanation:

The work published by David N. Frick, Sukalyani Banik, and Ryan S. Rypma in J Mol Biol. 2007 Jan 26; 365(4): 1017–1032 clearly shows that divalent metal ions of group 2 such as Mg^2+ play an important role in ATP hydrolysis. Addition of EDTA decreased the rate of hydrolysis of ATP (due to sequestration of the divalent ion of group 2) indicating an active participation of divalent ions in the process.

2) The copper I ion is colourless because it is a d^10 specie. However, when it is oxidized to Cu^2+, a blue colour appears in the solution.

Is snails growing shell conserve mass
postnew [5]

The thing that two changes have in common that snails growing shells and  rust forming on a bicycle frame is option D. Both are caused by cooling.

<h3>How come snails develop shells?</h3>

Calcium carbonate is said to be the material that makes up the shell. The snail's shell expands as it grows to accommodate its growing body. Snails and slugs are also members of the mollusc family of creatures.

Therefore, note that  air that has been mixed with the metal can make rust to develop. and as such, option D. Both are caused by cooling. is correct.

Compound A has molecular formula C5H11Br. When compound A is treated with bromine in the presence of UV light, the major product
damaskus [11]

The compound (A) is 2-bromo-pentane. See attached picture for the chemical diagram.

Explanation:

2-bromo-pentane (A) reacts with bromine (Br₂) under UV light to form 2,2-dibromopentane and HBr. Also 2-bromo-pentane (A) reacts with NaSH to from pentane-2-thiol, which have an asimetric carbon, and NaBr.

You may find the chemical reactions and diagrams of the compounds in the attached picture.

What happens when a metal is reduced. Give an example of a metal being reduced
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

The oxidation number of the metal decreases

2 Al  + Fe₂O₃ → Al₂O₃ + 2 FeO

The metal element iron, is reduced from Fe⁺³ in Fe₂O₃ to Fe⁺² in FeO

Explanation:

When an element gains electron, the element becomes reduced, hence when a metal is reduced, the metal gains electrons, which reduces the oxidation number of the metal

An example of a metal being reduced is;

2 Al  + Fe₂O₃ → Al₂O₃ + 2 FeO

In the above reaction, the iron (III) oxide is reduced to iron (II) oxide by aluminium metal.
