Enzymes are proteins, and they make a biochemical reaction more likely to proceed by lowering the activation energy of the reaction, thereby making these reactions proceed thousands or even millions of times faster than they would without a catalyst. Enzymes are highly specific to their substrates.

SO IT IS TRUE

Though a needle is several times as dense as water, a small needle can be made to float on the surface of water if placed carefu
viva [34]
The water is more dense than the needle so it can withstand the weight. It is the contraction of the water falling faster than the others forming a drop pattern or the water getting smaller so the top looked smaller.

Identify the compound with the smallest percent ionic character. identify the compound with the smallest percent ionic character
rosijanka [135]
<span> I'll try. A purely ionic bond, as the name implies is a bond between ions. If that sounds like double-talk it's because some ionic compounds are more ionic than others. A purely covalent compound is one in which the electrons are shared EQUALLY. It turns out that the only compounds in which the electrons are shared equally is one in which both atoms sharing the electrons are of the same element. For example O2, N2, Cl2, I2 or F2. Now suppose you make a compound between Fluorine and Iodine, IF. Since fluorine has a greater attraction for electrons than iodine, the bond will be polar. That is the fluorine part of the molecule will be negative and the iodine part will be positive. The attraction for electrons isn't equal. The same thing happens with ionic bonds. In your first question, the ionic character decreases from NaF through SiF4. Sodium loses an electron quite readily because it achieves a stable neon like configuration. Fluorine attracts an electron very strongly for the same reason. But as you move across the period, two things are happening. First, look at SiF4. Silicon is right in the middle of the period, It can achieve a stable inert gas configuration either by gaining 4 or losing 4 electrons. So it depends upon the electronegativity (the electron grabbing ability) of the atom it's combining with. Since Fluorine has the highest electron grabbing ability of any of the reactive elements, it will tend to pull the electrons away from silicon. But silicon doesn't completely give them up as it would in a purely ionic compound. AlF3 is similar but will tend to give up 3 electrons a little easier than SiF4. MgF2 is even more ionic because it's approaching an inert gas configuration and only need to lose 2 electrons. Can you see what's happening? The closer you get to the middle of a period, the less likely an atom is to give up COMPLETELY its electrons. In question 2 your answer is CO. The elements are close together (which means that their electronic structure is similar) and carbon, like silicon is in the middle of the period so its more likely to share electrons than it is to give them up (form an ionic bond). So it turns out that most chemical bonds are neither completely ionic or covalent but lie in between the two extremes and are called polar covalent. I hope this helps.</span>

What is the force in the stretched rope that is attached to a bucket being pulled out of a well?​
bezimeni [28]
The force of gravity acts upon all objects; the Earth and the object attract. There are no springs touching the object; thus, there is no spring force. A taut rope is attached to the bucket; this is the cause of the tension force.
