Living things are highly organized and structured, following a hierarchy of scale from small to large. The atom is the smallest and most fundamental unit of matter. It consists of a nucleus surrounded by electrons. Atoms combine to form molecules, which are chemical structures consisting of at least two atoms held together by a chemical bond. In plants, animals, and many other types of organisms, molecules come together in specific ways to create structures called organelles. Organelles are small structures that exist within cells and perform specialized functions. As discussed in more detail below, all living things are made of one or more cells.

Which of these takes place when a chemical change occurs?

zmey [24]

Answer:

In a chemical change, the atoms in the reactants rearrange themselves and bond together differently to form one or more new products with different characteristics than the reactants. When a new substance is formed, the change is called a chemical change.

Explain the energetic benefits of making the enzyme active site complementary to the transition state rather than to the substra

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Explanation:

If the enzyme active site is complementary to the substrate conformation rather than to the transition state, it is unlikely that the reaction will proceed and release a product, because the enzyme-substrate complex will be tightly bound (ΔG will raise).

On the other hand, when the enzyme active site is complementary to the transition state, the substrate will not be tightly bound and will be more prone to be transformed into the product (<u>ΔG will be lowered</u>) and afterward, be released.

The weak interactions (non-covalent bonds) will stabilize the energy of the transition state and reduce its energy, thus lowering the activation energy). If the transition state is stable, it will form more easily and<u> the reaction will be more likely to proceed.</u>

A chef plans to mix 100% vinegar with italian dressing. the italian dressing contains 13% vinegar. the chef wants to make 150 mi

charle [14.2K]

To determine the volume of both concentration of vinegar, we need to set up two equations since we have two unknowns.

For the first equation, we do a mass balance:

mass of 100% vinegar + mass of 13% vinegar = mass of 42% vinegar

Assuming they have the same densities, then we can write this equation in terms of volume.

V(100%) + V(13%) = V(42%)
we let x = V(100%)
y = V(13%)

x + y = 150

For the second equation, we do a component balance:

1.00x + .13y = 150(.42)
x + .13y = 63

The two equations are
x + y = 150
x + .13y = 63

Solving for x and y,
x = 50
y = 100

Therefore, you need to mix 50 mL of the 100% vinegar and 100 mL of the 13% vinegar.

Identify the acids and the bases in the chemical equation

agasfer [191]

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Acids; HCl and HC5H5N+

Bases; C5H5N and Cl-

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

According to Bronsted-Lowry Theory an acid is a proton or hydrogen ion donor while a base is a proton or a hydrogen ion acceptor.
In this case,<u> both HCl and HC5H5N+ are acids</u> as <u>they are donors of hydrogen ions</u>. HCl is an acid to the forward reaction while HC5H5N+ is a acid to the reverse reaction.
On the other hand, <u>C5H5N and Cl- are bases</u>, <u>they are acceptors of hydrogen ions</u>. Cl- is a base in the reverse reaction while C5H5N is a base in the forward reaction.
