From the chemical formula the total mass of the compound can be determined. The mass of the 1 mole of the compound is its molar mass. The atom by which the molecule is generated, the mass of these atoms are expressed in terms of amu or atomic unit mass, but after formation of a molecule in a particular ratio the mass of each of the atom becomes the total molecular weight of the generated molecule. In this case the molecule posses three atoms X, Y and Z which are in a ratio of 2:2:7. Thus the chemical formula of the compound can be written as
.
So the total mass of the compound in amu is {(2×47)+(2×42)+(7×16)} = {94+84+112}=290 amu.
Thus 1 mole of the compound contains 290 amu or 290 g by mass.
Henceforth 20 gram of the compound is equivalent to (20/290) = 0.068 mole.
Answer:
Are transferred completely from the valence shell of an element to the other
Explanation:
Basically, to form a chemical bond, you either transfer or you share. When you share, it is a case of covalent bonding which can be in several other forms. When there is a transfer, it is a case of ionic bonding.
The basic explanation for this is that while some atoms are electronically sufficient, some are electronically deficient. This means while some atoms are having an excess number of electrons, then some are having less number of electrons.
To satisfy both parties, there must be a transfer if electrons between the two parties. While the one with the excess numbers serves as the donor, the one with insufficient number of electrons serve as the acceptor
Answer:
A). The complementary shapes of an enzyme and a substrate.
Explanation:
The Lock-and-key mechanism was proposed by Emil Fischer for the first time and characterized as the metaphor which helps in elucidating the specificity of the enzymatic reactions. In this metaphor, the lock is described as the enzyme while 'key' is characterized as the substrate which the enzyme acts upon. If the key is not appropriately sized, it will not fit into the active site i.e. the keyhole of the lock or enzyme and reaction will not take place. Thus, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.
