What happens to the rate of an enzyme-catalysed reaction when temperature increases? And when pH changes?

As temperature increases, the molecules involved in the reaction gain kinetic energy, increasing the chances of collision between the substrate molecules and the active sites of the enzymes, a step that is n...

The lamp has an efficiency of 20%. Explain what this means.

20% efficiency means that 20% of the electrical energy going into the lamp is transfered to light, and 80% of the energy is lost/wasted.

f(x)=2x^3-7x^2+4x+4, prove that (x-2) is a factor and factorise f(x) completely

if (X-2) is a factor, f(2)=0 2 2^3-7 2^2+4*2+4= 16-28+8+4=0 therefore (x-2) is a factor. 2x^3-7x^2+4x+4=(x-2)(2x^2-3x-2)=(x-2)(2x+1)(x-2)

Find the derivation of (sinx)(e^2x)

Because there are two forms of x , the form uv'+vu' must be used. If y=sinx , dy/dx=cosx If y=e^kx , dy/dx=ke^kx Therefore dy/dx=(sinx)(2e^2x)+(e^2x)(cosx)

Could you explain the distribution of the incidence of a tax and why it may fall differently on consumers and producers?

Firstly it would be useful to define terms and state that the majority of the time the tax in question will be a tax on a good or service for example the tax on cigarettes (tobacco). The reason that this que...
