Explanation

Proteases are enzymes that break down proteins by hydrolyzing peptide bonds.

Enzymes that catalyze hydrolysis reactions belong to the class of Hydrolases.

Explanation

Across the periods of the periodic table, the shielding effect remains relatively constant.

This is because the number of inner shell electrons, which are responsible for shielding, does not change as you move across a period. 

Explanation

 The common cultivated potato, Solanum tuberosum,

It has 48 chromosomes in its somatic cells (2n=4x=48).

This means it is a tetraploid species, with two sets of chromosomes derived from each of its two parents.

Therefore, the number of chromosomes in a potato's egg cell and in haploid somatic cells is 24. 

Explanation

Molar mass of CH₄ = 12 (C) + 4×1 (H) = 16 g/mol, so 16 g = 1 mole of CH₄.

At standard temperature and pressure (STP), 1 mole of any gas occupies 22.4 dm³, so CH₄ also occupies 22.4 dm³.

Explanation

 Fe atomic number = 26 → Fe: [Ar] 3d⁶ 4s²  

Fe²⁺ loses 2 electrons → becomes 3d⁶ → 4 unpaired electrons.  

Others have fewer or no unpaired electrons.

Explanation

The relative lowering of vapor pressure is given by the formula: 

Relative lowering of vapor pressure = (Mole fraction of solute)/(Mole fraction of solvent + Mole fraction of solute)

Calculating the mole fractions:

Moles of glucose = (18 g / 180 g/mol) = 0.1 mol 

Moles of water = (90 g / 18 g/mol) = 5 mol

Mole fraction of glucose = 0.1 / (0.1 + 5) = 0.02 

Mole fraction of water = 1 - 0.02 = 0.98 

Substituting into the formula:

Relative lowering of vapor pressure = 0.02 / (0.02 + 0.98) = 0.02 / 1 = 0.02 

Therefore, the relative lowering of vapor pressure is 0.02, which is equivalent to 1/50.

In crystal field theory (CFT), the energy gap between the t2g and eg sets is denoted by 10Dq.
