The molecule can absorb heat from the environment without changing its chemical structure, as will occur when there is a local temperature increase. The molecule will have a higher energy. If the increase in energy is above KT (i.e., the entire environment has not increased its temperature), the molecule will come to thermal equilibrium with the environment around it, and return to its original energy state. Which one of the following is example to this? Select one: a. The absorbance of radiant energy by Melanin pigment in the skin. b. Conversion of 11-cis form of retinal to the all-trans form of retinal upon exposure to light, with a maximum absorbance at 500 nm. c. Thymine-thymine and thymine-cytosine pyrimidine bridges formation upon exposure of DNA to UV-B radiation. d. The translucent to opaque conversion of egg whites when cooked by increasing the temperature.
Using collision theory, indicate which of the following statements regarding physical nature of the reactants is true: a) physical nature of reactants                               The physical nature of reactants does not influence the rate of reaction because reactions happen only on the molecular level. Solids, liquids or gases all influence the rate of reaction the same because they are all in the physical state. Solid state reactants react faster if the particle sizes are larger because reactions occur at the boundary surface with direct contact. Gaseous-state reactions are faster than liquid-state or solid-state reactions because collisions between reactants are more frequent.
Use the following graph to diagram the energetics of a chemical reaction, with and without an enzyme. Be sure to position reactants and products at appropriate points and to indicate the stages in the reaction and the energy levels.
