Answer:

a. The reaction is endothermic.

Explanation:

The heat involved in a chemical reaction is given by the enthalpy change (ΔH), which is equal to the balance between the chemical bonds that are broken (release energy) and the chemical bonds that are formed (need energy):

ΔH ≅ bonds broken - bonds formed

If broken bonds > bonds formed ⇒ ΔH > 0 ⇒ endothermic reaction

Therefore, the reaction is endothermic (it requires energy).

How efficient are electric engines
raketka [301]

Answer:

Electric engines have efficiencies of roughly 90% whilst combustion engines about 10% to 30%. This is because combustion engines emit much more heat, which is always energy that is not used as work, and thus increases inefficiency.

Select all statements that correctly describe hemoglobin and myoglobin structure. a. Molecular oxygen binds irreversibly to the
DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

c. By itself, heme is not a good oxygen carrier. It must be part of a larger protein to prevent oxidation of the iron.

e. Both hemoglobin and myoglobin contain a prosthetic group called heme, which contains a central iron ( Fe ) (Fe) atom.

f. Hemoglobin is a heterotetramer, whereas myoglobin is a monomer. The heme prosthetic group is entirely buried within myoglobin.

Explanation:

The differences between hemoglobin and myoglobin are most important at the level of quaternary structure. Hemoglobin is a tetramer composed of two each of two types of closely related subunits, alpha and beta. Myoglobin is a monomer (so it doesn't have a quaternary structure at all). Myoglobin binds oxygen more tightly than does hemoglobin. This difference in binding energy reflects the movement of oxygen from the bloodstream to the cells, from hemoglobin to myoglobin.

Myoglobin binds oxygen

The binding of O 2 to myoglobin is a simple equilibrium reaction:

The Ka for formic acid (HCO2H) is 1.8 × 10-4. What is the pH of a 0.35 M aqueous solution of sodium formate (NaHCO2)?
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

9.36

Explanation:

Sodium formate is the conjugate base of formic acid.

Also,

K_a\times K_b=K_w

K_b for sodium formate is K_b=\frac {K_w}{K_a}

Given that:

K_a of formic acid = 1.8\times 10^{-4}

And, K_w=10^{-14}

So,

K_b=\frac {10^{-14}}{1.8\times 10^{-4}}

K_b=5.5556\times 10^{-11}

Concentration = 0.35 M

HCOONa    ⇒     Na⁺ +    HCOO⁻

Consider the ICE take for the formate  ion as:

                                   HCOO⁻ + H₂O   ⇄   HCOOH + OH⁻

At t=0                              0.35                            -              -

At t =equilibrium           (0.35-x)                          x           x            

The expression for dissociation constant of sodium formate is:

K_{b}=\frac {[OH^-][HCOOH]}{[HCOO^-]}

5.5556\times 10^{-11}=\frac {x^2}{0.35-x}

Solving for x, we get:

x = 0.44×10⁻⁵  M

pOH = -log[OH⁻] = -log(0.44×10⁻⁵) = 4.64

pH + pOH = 14

So,

<u>pH = 14 - 4.64 = 9.36</u>
