Answer:

Cl^- <S^2-<Sc^3+ <Ca^2+<K^+

Explanation:

We know that ionic radius of ions decreases from right to left in the periodic table.  This is because, ionic radii decreases with increase in nuclear charge. This explains why; Sc^3+ <Ca^2+<K^+.

Secondly, even though Cl^- is isoelectronic with S^2-, the size of the nuclear charge in Cl^-  is larger compared to that of  S^2- . Hence Cl^-  is smaller than S^2- in ionic radius owing to increased nuclear attraction in Cl^-.

#1. Which one of the following statements correctly defines active site? The active site is a site on the enzyme molecule where
deff fn [24]
Active sites in enzymes are where substrates bind. Once they bind, a catalytic reaction occurs as a complex between substrate and enzyme is formed. Enzymes are termed as biocatalysts or simply catalysts since they speed up the catalytic reaction. After the reaction, they simply revert back to their original form, after having adjusted to fit with substrate.
