Describe the lock and key theory in reference to the enzyme Amylase

The lock and key theory suggests that there is a complimentary shaped substrate that will fit exactly into the specific shape of the enzyme's active site. In this case, amalyase is the enzyme and the subs...

Two particles A and B of mass 2kg and 3kg respectively are moving head on. A is moving at 5m/s and B is moving at 4m/s. After the collision, A rebounds at 4m/s. What is the speed of B and what direction is it moving in?

Using conservation of momentum, m1u1 + m2u2 = m1v1 + m2v2, set m1 = 2kg, m2 = 3kg, u1 = 5m/s, u2 = -4m/s and v1 = -4m/s. Substitute these into the equation to get 25 + 3(-4) = 2*(-4) + 3*v2 10 - ...

An unknown capacitor is charged to 6v, its maximum value, then discharged through a 1k ohm resistor. If the capacitor voltage is 3v, 0.3 seconds after starting to discharge, what is the capacitance of the unknown capacitor?

To start, the equation to use can be identified as the capactior discharge equation V(t) = Vmaxe-t/RC. From here, we can see that this equation can be solved to give capacitance, and...

Calculate the pH change when water is added to 25.0 ml of 0.250M NaOH to form a 1.00l solution.

The initial [-OH] is 0.250M since NaOH releases 1 mole of -OH per mole of base. Using Kw=[H+][-OH], [H+]=(110-14)/0.250=410-14M (note remember units). Hence the initial pH=-...
