The disaccharide lactose can be decomposed into its constituent sugars galactose and glucose. This decomposition can be accompli

shed through acid-based hydrolysis or by the enzyme lactase. Lactose intolerance in humans is due to the lack of lactase production by cells in the small intestine. However, the stomach is an acidic environment; therefore, one might expect lactose hydrolysis to still be an efficient process. The following data were obtained on the rate of lactose decomposition as a function of acid and lactose concentration.
Initial Rate (M^-1 s^-1) [Lactose]o (M) [H+](M)
0.00116 0.01 0.001
0.00232 0.02 0.001
0.00464 0.01 0.004


Required:
Using this information, determine the rate law expression for the acid-based hydrolysis of lactose.

Answer:

Rate  = 116m⁻¹s⁻¹[lactose][H]⁺

Explanation:

the formula for rate of reaction is given as

Rate = k[lactose]∧α[H]⁺∧β

we solve for the value of α and β

([lactose]₁/[lactose]₂)∧α

α = \frac{ln\frac{0.00116}{0.00232} }{ln\frac{0.01}{0.02} }

when we divide this equation

α = \frac{ln0.5}{ln0.5}

α = 1

we find β

R₁/R₂ = 0.01/0.02(0.001/0.001)∧β

0.00116/0.00232 = 0.5(1)∧β

β = 1

Rate = k[lactose]∧α[H]⁺∧β

we have to find the value for k

k = 0.00116/0.01(0.001)

k = 0.00116/0.00001

= 116m⁻¹s⁻¹

<u>Rate = 116m⁻¹s⁻¹[lactose][H]⁺</u>

Which of the following rules should you follow to balance chemical equations?
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

c. add coefficients as needed

Explanation:

A chemical equation is defined as the equation that shows changes in a chemical reaction. A chemical equation consist of reactant and product, reactant is at left side of the arrow and product is at right side of the arrow.

Reactant => Product

While balancing a chemical equation, the basic rule is to balance the coefficient as required. Coefficient represents the number of molecules and is used at front of a chemical symbol. Change in coefficient helps balance the number of atoms or molecules of the substances on both the sides of the arrow.

Subscripts are never allowed to change because it can change the chemical involved in the reaction.

Hence, the correct answer is "c. add coefficients as needed".

The partial negative charge at one end of a water molecule is attracted to the partial positive
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

             Hydrogen Bond

Explanation:

                   Hydrogen bond interactions are formed between the hydrogen atom bonded to most electronegative atoms (i.e. F, O and N) of one molecule and most electronegative atom (i.e. F, O and N) of another molecule.

In this interaction the hydrogen atom has partial positive charge and electronegative atom has partial negative charge.
