Histidine, an essential amino acid, has as a positively charged imidazole functional group. The imidazole makes it a common participant in enzyme catalyzed reactions. The unprotonated imidazole is nucleophilic and can serve as a general base, while the protonated form can serve as a general acid.

How can I differentiate between Ionic compounds, molecular compounds, and acids given only the formula? I need to be able to fin
VikaD [51]
You can differentiate between ionic, covalent and molecular compounds by the fact that ionic compounds contain elements that include both a metal and a nonmetal. Molecular compounds contain both non metals covalently bonded to each other. While acids most often on their chemical formula start with the element of Hydrogen - H.

For Eg - sulphuric acid
H2SO4
hydrochloric acid - HCl.

Two angles with measures (6x + 60) (90)<br> are supplementary. What is the value of x?
fredd [130]
Supplementary angles add up to 180, so
6x+60+90 = 180 and solve for x
6x= 30

What happen when a piece of silver metal is added to the copper sulphate solution​
natta225 [31]

Answer:

Explanation:When silver Ag metal is added to copper sulphate CuSO4 solution, no reaction takes place as silver is less reactive than that of copper and cannot displace copper from its solution. Hence, when a piece of silver metal is added to copper sulphate solution there will be no reaction.

A rigid vessel contains water at 0.15 MPa (at 25 °C). The vessel is heated to the critical point of water. Calculate the fractio
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

0.8078 Kg

Explanation:

Pressure of water = 0.15 MPa = 1.5 bar

At critical point of water ,temperature = 647 K=374°C

From the ideal gas equation

P×V= m×R×T

Let us assume volume = 1 m^3

1.5 x 105 x 1 = m x 287 x 647

m= 0.8078 kg

the fraction of mass of liquid at 25°C.
