Why methane has a low melting point

Chemistry

Simple molecular substances consist of molecules in which the atoms are joined by strong covalent bonds. However, the molecules are held together by weak forces so these substances have low melting and boiling points.
I hope this helps.=^P

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>

Match the term with its description.
blagie [28]

Answer:

Pure substance B) Consists of a single element or type of compound.

Homogeneous A) Mixture that has its different components mixed evenly within the substance.

Heterogeneous D) Mixture that has its different components mixed unevenly within the substance.

Solution C) Liquid homogeneous mixture in which the solute is distributed evenly within the solvent.

Explanation:

Pure substances are a form of matter with definite constant composition and distinct properties. They consist of a single element or type of compound, as can be seen in its formula. Na, O₂, NaCl and H₂O are examples of pure substances.

When 2 or more pure substances are mixed together they form a mixture. If the mixture has its different components mixed <u>evenly</u> within the substance it is a homogeneous mixture. Whereas if the mixture has its different components mixed <u>unevenly</u> within the substance it is a heterogeneous mixture. The different parts observable in a heterogeneous mixture are known as phases.

In liquid homogeneous mixtures, we can recognize one or more substances that are in lower proportions (solutes) and one substance that is in greater proportion (solvent). This kind of mixture is known as a solution.

If 5.58 g of iron reacts with sulfur to produce 8.79 g of iron sulfide, what is the mass of reacting sulfur? A) 3215 B) 14:37 C)
gogolik [260]

Answer: A) 3.21 g

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side.

Fe+S\rightarrow FeS

We are given:

Mass of iron = 5.58 g

Mass of iron sulphide = 8.79 g

Mass of sulphur = x g

Total mass on reactant side = 5.58 + x

Total mass on product side = 8.79 g

Applying law of conservation of mass, we get:

5.58+x=8.79\\\\x=3.21g

Hence, the mass of reacting sulfur is 3.21 g.
