In quantum matter, all things in the world are made up of even smaller particles than the atom. These are called the subatomic particles: neutron, proton and electron. A beta particle is simply an electron. It is an electromagnetic particle or wave. Electromagnetic particles are high-energy particles that are emitted by the atom during radioactive decay. Since it is an electron, its charge must be -1 and it must come from outside the nucleus of the atom. From the choices, the answers would be:

is electromagnetic energy
has a -1 charge

The enzyme Y catalyzes the elementary reaction

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

0.7μM = 0.6 μM = 0.5 μM > 0.4 μM > 0.3 μM > 0.2 μM

Explanation:

An enzyme solution is saturated when all the active sites of the enzyme molecule are full. When an enzyme solution is saturated, the reaction is occurring at the maximum rate.

From the given information, an enzyme concentration of 1.0 μM Y can convert a maximum of 0.5 μM AB to the products A and B per second means that a 1.0 M Y solution is saturated when an AB concentration of 0.5 M or greater is present.

The addition of more substrate to a solution that contains the enzyme required for its catalysis will generally increase the rate of the reaction. However, if the enzyme is saturated with substrate, the addition of more substrate will have no effect on the rate of reaction.

Therefore the reaction rates at substrate concentrations of 0.7μM, 0.6 μM, and 0.5 μM are equal. But the reaction rate at substrate concentrations of 0.2 μM is lower than at 0.3 μM, 0.3 μM is lower than 0.4 μM and 0.4 μM is lower than 0.5 μM, 0.6 μM and 0.7 μM.

Consider the following reaction between calcium oxide and carbon dioxide: CaO(s)+CO2(g)→CaCO3(s) A chemist allows 14.4 g of CaO

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

Theoretical yield =26.03 g

Percent yield = 87%

Limiting reactant = CaO

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of CaO = 14.4 g

Mass of CO₂ = 13.8 g

Actual yield of CaCO₃ = 22.6 g

Theoretical yield = ?

Percent yield = ?

Limiting reactant = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

CaO + CO₂ → CaCO₃

Number of moles of CaO:

Number of moles = Mass /molar mass

Number of moles = 14.4 g / 56.1 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.26 mol

Number of moles of CO₂:

Number of moles = Mass /molar mass

Number of moles = 13.8 g / 44 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.31 mol

Now we will compare the moles of CO₂ and CaO with CaCO₃ .

CO₂ : CaCO₃

1 : 1

0.31 : 0.31

CaO : CaCO₃

1 : 1

0.26 : 0.26

The number of moles of CaCO₃ produced by CaO are less it will be limiting reactant.

Mass of CaCO₃: Theoretical yield

Mass of CaCO₃ = moles × molar mass

Mass of CaCO₃ =0.26 mol × 100.1 g/mol

Mass of CaCO₃ = 26.03 g

Percent yield:

Percent yield = actual yield / theoretical yield × 100

Percent yield = 22.6 g/ 26.03 g × 100

Percent yield = 0.87× 100

Percent yield = 87%

Limiting reactant:

The number of moles of CaCO₃ produced by CaO are less it will be limiting reactant.
