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.

Write the advantages of modern periodic table write as more as you can and don't copy the same thing​
Tema [17]

Answer:

the advantages of modern periodic tables are given below and explained.

  1. position of hydrogen:since hydrogen has the least atomic number i.e 1 ,it is kept in group 1 of modern periodic table, but still controversial due to its. dual characteristics since it shows the characteristics of borh group 1 and group 17.
  2. position of isotopes :isotopes are element having the same atomic number but different atomic weight . Without any doubt all isotopes of one element and kept in one place.
  3. position of lanthanide and acnitinides: element of Lanthanides series and element of Actinides series are kept below the main block of the periodic table as they have different properties from other elements.
  4. correction of periodic law: some elements do not obey mendeleev periodic law , but when they are arranged according to atomic number they obey the modern periodic law.
  5. position of alkali metals and coinage metals : in modern periodic table , alkali metal are kept in group IA and coinage metals are in group.

hope this helped you☺️

any confusion then comment it and let me know.

actually as I say these points say that the modern periodic table is better than mendeleev periodic table so, don't get confused.

Trans fats: Think about how the prefix trans- is used in naming alkenes.
wel
In an alkene, cis and trans isomers are possible because the double band is rigid, cannot rotate, has groups attached to the carbons of the double bond that are fixed relative to each other, and only occurs with double bonds-possibility that molecule will have different geometries; two different molecules with slightly different properties. 
-Trans-2 ends of chain across the double bond.
While naming Cis-Trans isomers the prefix cis or trans are placed in front of the alkene name when there are cis-trans isomers.

Write me a brief description of a Nerve Signal. (Only one sentence)
astraxan [27]

Description of a nerve signal

The nerve signal, or action potential, is a coordinated movement of sodium and potassium ions across the nerve cell membrane. Here's how it works: As we discussed, the inside of the cell is slightly negatively charged (resting membrane potential of -70 to -80 mV).
