Chemistry
1 answer:
ipn [44]4 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The biological significance is that it is the normal human body temperature and also the optimum temperature of the enzyme.

Explanation:

  • Enzymes are biological catalysts that speed up the rate of chemical reactions.
  • Enzymes catalyze specific reactions by working on a specific substrate to convert it into a product.
  • The rate of enzyme activity depends on several factors which include pH, temperature, substrate concentration, and enzyme concentration among others.
  • Enzymes work best at a specific pH and temperature known as optimum pH and optimum temperature respectively.
  • In this case, enzyme amylase works best at a temperature of 37° C which is equivalent to the normal human body temperature.

Are BF3 and NF3 symmetric or asymmetric molecules? explain your reasoning
e-lub [12.9K]
The shape of the molecule depends on how many electrons and bonds you have in the outer shell of the central atom. 
For NH3, N is the central atom. It has 3 covalent bonds and a lone pair. Thus the repulsion of the lone pair electrons and the bond electrons will force them to arrange at the corners of a tetrahedral. The molecule will look as a trigonal pyramid (since the lone pair is not "visible" in the structure. 

<span>For BH3, B is the central atom and has no lone pair apart from the three bonds. So the repulsion of the bond electrons will force them to be in a planar trigonal arrangement.
