34
Q

Taurine, a beta amino acid belongs to the acidic group of:

A

35
Q

In a standard chemical reaction, rate is governed by the relationship rate=pze-E/RT, where p and z refer to the probability that reacting molecules make a favorable encounter. To increase the probability of reaction, enzymes are employed. Based on the above equation, if E is the activation energy, which is more favorable and why? A lower of higher E?

A

Lower E so that a proton can be donated or stolen for the reactants leading

36
Q

a. Carbon
b. Nitrogen
c. Oxygen
d. Hydrogen

A

C= 4 electrons, 4 bonds; N= 5 electrons, 3 bonds; O= electrons, 2 bonds; H= 2 electrons, 2 bonds

37
Q

The coexistence curve where the plot of pressure versus temperature along which the two phases coexist was shown by Clausius-Clapeyron. What did Clausius postulate?

A

The Clapyeron equation was simplified by assuming that the vapor obeys the ideal gas law and by neglecting the molar volume of the liquid VL in comparison with the molar volume of the gas VG.

38
Q

What is the significance of colligative property in physical chemistry?

A

It refers to the freezing point depression, boiling point elevation, osmotic pressure, and lowering of the vapor pressure by a nonvolatile solute

39
Q

In the collision theory of chemical kinetics, it is suggested that reaction rate is governed by the relationship rate= Pze-E/RT. What can an enzyme do to the activation energy of the reaction E?

A

Enzymes provide an alternative reaction pathway in lowering the energy level of the reaction.

A

All of it transferred to the road and surroundings

45
Q

Are reversible process frictionless? Why?

A

Because when reversed, retraces its forward path and restores the initial state of the system and surroundings.

46
Q

What is the Nujol Mull in the organic reactions?

A

It is a mass spectrum technique and is obtained by grinding up a solid which is mixed with mineral oil to form a suspension for IR spectroscopy.
