Question 1.1.&nbsp;Rank butane (CH3CH2CH2CH3), butanoic acid (CH3CH2CH2COOH), and pentane (CH3CH2CH2CH2CH3) in order of increasing boiling point. (From lowest to highest.) &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;butane < butanoic acid < pentane&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;butane < pentane < butanoic acid&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;butanoic acid < pentane < butane&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;pentane < butanoic acid < butane Question 2.2.&nbsp;Choose the equilibrium constant that indicates the […]

Hamptonium is a radioactive substance that decays into two parts Monctonium and one part St. Johnite (i.e. 3 units of Hamptonium decays into 2 units of Monctonium and 1 unit of St. Johnite) . Hamptonium has a half-life of 1 million years. We find a rock that contains 20 units […]

1. The final steps in fermentation appear to be unnecessary: the generation of lactate or ethanol does not produce any additional energy for the cell. Explain why cells growing in the absence of oxygen could not simply discard pyruvate a waste product. 2. What, if anything, is wrong with the […]

Would you help me with the following question? An enzyme catalyzes a reaction at a velocity of 20 umol/min when the concentration of substrate (S) is 0.01 M. The Km for this substrate is 1 x 10-5 M. Assuming that Michaelis-Menten kinetics are followed, what will be the reaction velocity […]
