Solution:
The total energy of a revolving electron in any orbit is the sum of its kinetic and potential energies. Energy of an electron at infinite distance from the nucleus is zero. As an electron approaches the nucleus, the electron attraction increases and the energy of electron decreases and thus becomes negative. Thus, it can never be positive.
Solution:
Typical organic compounds are combustible by nature as they contain carbon. Organic compounds mostly consist of carbon, hydrogen, halogen, and phosphorus.
767. The enzyme that converts glucose to ethyl alcohol is :
Solution:
The fermentation of sugar into ethanol is one of the earliest biotechnologies employed by humanity. Fermentation of fermentable sugars by suitable yeast produces ethanol (ethyl alcohol). Yeast is a single celled fungus containing a number of enzymes useful during fermentation. Brewers yeast and wine yeast, for example, contain zymase, an enzyme that can convert glucose to ethanol.
