An element X has two isotopes. X–15 has 7 protons and 8 neutrons. Determine the atomic number and mass number of the second isotope, which has 10 neutrons in its nucleus. a. atomic number = 8; mass number = 9
b. atomic number = 8; mass number = 17
c. atomic number = 7; mass number = 17
d. atomic number = 7; mass number = 15

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

c. Atomic number = 7; mass number = 17  

The atomic number of the first isotope is 7.

Isotopes of the same element have the same atomic number, so the atomic number of the second isotope must also be 7.

Mass number = no. of protons + no. of neutrons, or

A = p + n

∴ A = 7 + 10 = 17

Options “a.” and “b.” have the wrong atomic numbers, and option “d.” has the wrong mass number.

Which component is required for the activation of some enzymes?a) Presence of a co-factor
b) Basic pH levels in the substrate
c) Higher enzyme concentration
d) Lower temperature in the substrate

Answers

The correct answer is option A.

Presence of a co-factor is required for the activation of some enzymes. Co-factors are generally metal ions or small molecules (non-protein).Co-factors helps enzymes bind substrate tightly.  For example, NAD⁺/NADH is a co-factor which is required for the activation of the enzyme dehydrogenase. NAD⁺ is the oxidized form and NADH is the reduced form.

The best answer is letter A. 
The main factors that change the speed of enzymatic reactions are temperature, pH and substrate concentration (quantity). There are enzymes that need other associated molecules to work. These molecules are called enzyme co-factors. They can be organic ions like mineral salts.

How many miles of a gas sample are in a 20.0 l container at 373kand 203 kpa? the gas constant is 8.31 l-kpa/m-k

Answers

To simplify our solution for this probelm we first assume that the gas we are dealing with is an ideal gas. Given that it is ideal we can proceed the solution using the formula: PV=nRT where P is pressure (203KPa), V is volume (20.0 L), n is moles (required), T is absolute temperature (373K) and R is the gas constant ( 8.31 l-kpa/m-k). Plug in the given to the respective variables and you should get 3.28 moles of the gas sample.
