Introduction:
The reaction rate is the change in concentration of reactant into product per unit of time. Enzyme is a proteinaceous molecule that acts as a catalyst. The enzymes speed up the chemical reaction without being affected by reactions. The enzyme allows the chemical reaction to occur in mild condition. Enzyme neither affects the reaction nor affects the product formation.

- The following equation represents a reversible decomposition: CaCO3(s)CaO(s)+CO2(g) Under what conditions will decomposition in a closed container proceed to completion so that no CaCO3 remains?arrow_forwardThe recycling of polymers represents only one industrial process that allows creating order in one location by creating greater disorder at some other location, often at a power plant. List three other industrial processes that must create disorder in the surroundings to generate the desired material.arrow_forwardRedo Exercise 29 with two particles A and B, which can be distinguished from each other.arrow_forward
- Substances that poison a catalyst pose a major concern for many engineering designs, including those for catalytic converters. One design option is to add materials that react with potential poisons before they reach the catalyst. Among the commonly encountered catalyst poisons are silicon and phosphorus, which typically form phosphate or silicate ions in the oxidizing environment of an engine. Group 2 elements are added to the catalyst to react with these contaminants before they reach the working portion of the catalytic converter. If estimates show that a catalytic converter will be exposed to 625 g of silicon during its lifetime, what mass of beryllium would need to be included in the design?arrow_forwardDefine the terms product-favored System and reactant-favored System. Give one example of each.arrow_forwardThe following reversible enzymatic reaction occurs in many areas of the body, but especially in red blood cells. The conversion of water and carbon dioxide into bicarbonate and hydrogen ions occurs through the action of an enzyme called carbonic anhydrase. Use the Law of Mass Action to predict which direction this equation will go under different circumstances. CO2 + H2O ↔ H+ + HCO3- Hyperventilating would increase the loss of carbon dioxide (CO2) from the blood. In what direction would the reaction above go in order to restore equilibrium? Left or right?arrow_forward
- what are catalysts? give any two examplesarrow_forwardWhat characteristics of a chemical reaction make it reversible or irreversible?arrow_forwardIn most exergonic reactions, before products can be formed, the reactants must first overcome a thermodynamic barrier known as the Select one: A. entropy of the reaction. B. energy conservation of the reaction. C. chemical equilibrium of the reaction. D. activation energy of the reaction.arrow_forward
- Catalysts are sometimes used in chemical reactions. a. Explain what a catalyst does in a chemical reaction b. How does a catalyst affect the ∆H of a chemical reaction c. How does a catalyst affect the reaction rate of a chemical reactionarrow_forward5arrow_forward4. Ten molecules of XY react according to the following equation: XY ↔ X + YKc = 1.1 x 10-1 at 125 C Delta H = -24.5 kJ/mol rxn a.In the boxes like the ones shown here, sketch the reactants and products as they would appear when equilibrium has been reached. Assume that the two boxes represent the same reaction chamber. b. A catalyst is added to the reaction. a.How will the concentrations of the reactants and products at equilibrium change? Explain your reasoning. b. How will the addition of a catalyst affect the enthalpy of the reaction? Explain your reasoning. c.The temperature of the reaction is decreased from 125 oC to 25 oC. In the boxes like the ones shown here, draw a possible new molecular diagram to represent any changes that would occur in concentrations. As in (a), the two boxes represent the same reaction chamber. d. Will the equilibrium constant value increase, decrease, or remain the same when the temperature is decreased? Explain your reasoning. e.…arrow_forward
