Bromelain separates the amino acids in the enzymes that cause browning by breaking the peptide bonds.
Explanation:
Enzymes speed up chemical reactions by lowering activation energy.
An enzyme from the stem of pineapple is called Bromelain also known as cysteine protease. It is obtained by cutting pineapple and filtering the juice of it.
Bromelain extract is a mixture of protein-digesting enzymes and several other substances in smaller quantities.
The monomers in Bromelain are numerous sub units of Sulfhydryl proteases. A free sulfyhydryl group of a cysteine amino acid side chain is required for function. By seperating proteins from amino acids the reaction that breaks up enzymes occurs.
This item can be answered by using the concept of material balance. The amount of substance used for the reaction should be the same before and after the reaction occurred.
Amount of reactants = 3.55 grams + 4.60 grams = 8.15 grams
We are also given that the amount of product accounted for is only 6.25 grams, this entails that not all copper was reacted. Subtracting this value from 8.15 g will give us an answer of 1.9 grams.
Answer: 1.9 g of copper
Answer:
Benzoic acid
Explanation:
The strength of an acid is principally a measure of its dissociative capabilities in aqueous solutions. While strong acids dissociate completely in solution, weak acids dissociates only partially.
The relative strength of an acid can be obtained from its pKa value. The pKa value is the negative logarithm of the concentration of the Ka value.
Stronger acids have a pKa value usually negative. This is a pointer to the fact that the lower the pKa value, the stronger the strength of the acid in question.
Relatively therefore, Benzoic acid is stronger than acetic acid because it has a lesser value for pKa
<h3>Answer:</h3>
This atom has 80 protons, 120 neutrons and 80 electrons.
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
Number of Protons:
As the number of protons present in the nucleus are equal to the atomic number therefore. As given, the atomic number is 80 therefore, Hg contains 80 protons respectively.
Number of Electrons:
As given in statement, Hg is not carrying any type of charge. It means this atom is neutral in nature. Which means, it is carrying the same number of electrons as the number of protons in order to give a neutral atom. Therefore, it contains 80 electrons.
Number of Neutrons:
Number of neutrons can be calculated using following formula,
No. of Neutrons = Atomic Mass - Number of Protons
As,
Atomic Mass = 200
So,
No. of Neutrons = 200 - 80
No. of Neutrons = 120
We have to discuss here whether mole should be considered as a base unit in SI system or not.
The answer is- mole is considered as base unit in SI system.
There are seven base units in the SI system. They are- kilogram (kg) for mass, second (s) for time, kelvin (K) for temperature, ampere (A) for electric current, mole (mol) for the amount of substance, candela (cd) for luminous intensity and meter (m) is for distance.
Mole is defined as the amount of substance that contains as many elementary entities as there are atoms in 0.012 kilogram of carbon-12. One mole contains exactly 6.022 X 10²³ elementary entities.
This number 6.022 X 10²³ is the fixed numerical value which is called Avogadro number which is universally accepted number. Hence mole is also base unit in the SI system.
