Answer:

(D) (CH3CH2)2NH

Explanation:

In order to decide which base is strongest we need to calculate its PKb

PKb = -log [Kb]

A large Kb value and small PKb value gives the strongest base

 Compound                   Kb                           PKb      

(A) C6H5NH2 -         4 x 10^-10                      9.349

(B) NH3                     1.76x 10^-5                    4.754

(C) CH3NH2              4.4x 10^-4                     3.357

(D) (CH3CH2)2NH   8.6x 10^-4                     3.066

(E) C5H5N                  1.7x10^-9                      8.77  

Clearly (CH3CH2)2NH is the strongest base.

Select the compound that is most likely to increase the solubility of ZnSe when added to water.NaCnMgBr2NaClKClO4
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

NaCl.

Explanation:

In the solution, ZnSe ionizes to Zn^2^+ and Se^2^- . Following reaction represents the ionization of ZnSe in solution -

ZnSe ⇄ Zn^2^+ + Se^2^-

As we want to increase the solubility of ZnSe, we must decrease the concentration of dissociated ions so that the reaction continues to forward direction.

If we add NaCl to this solution, then we have Na^+ and Cl^- in the solution which will be formed by the ionization of NaCl.

Now, Zn^2^+ in the solution will react with two Cl^- ions to form ZnCl_2 as follows -

Zn^2^++2Cl^- ⇄ ZnCl_2

Due to this reaction the concentration of Zn^2^+ will decrease in the solution and more ZnSe can be soluble in the solution.

Succinate dehydrogenase catalyzes the conversion of succinate to fumarate. The reaction is inhibited by malonic acid, which rese
allsm [11]

Answer:

Here malonic acid acts as a competitive inhibitor of succinate dehydrogenase

Explanation:

Malonic acid structurally resembles succinic acid as a result the enzyme succinate dehydrogenase cannot distinguish between malonic acid and succinic acid.

      That"s why malonic acid interact with succinate dehydrogenase thereby blocking the catalytic activity of the later.

      As this mechanism is a type of competitive inhibition that"s why increasing the concentration of substrate succinic acid can reduce the inhibitory effect of malonic acid.
