Explanation

The reason why transition metals form interstitial compounds is that the lattice of transition metals contains open spaces that can be filled with atoms

such as H, C, and N. Interstitial compounds are formed when Hydrogen, Carbon, and Nitrogen atoms become trapped inside the crystal lattice of metals.

Explanation

The one-step mechanism is known as the E2 reaction,

and the two-step mechanism is known as the E1 reaction.

Explanation

Among suitable choices, certainly, ethanol dehydrogenation to acetaldehyde is desirable CH3CH2OH(g) → CH3CHO(g) + H2(g) ΔH0298 = 68.6 kJ/mol.

This reaction is endothermic and characterized by a reaction enthalpy variation of 68.6 kJ/mol. (Leblud et al., 1981)

Explanation

The vestigial (organ) is a degenerate organ or structure or physical attribute that has little to no function in the species

but possesses an essential function in the preceding evolutionary form of the species.

Explanation

Cartilage is a non-vascular type of supporting connective tissue that is found throughout the body .

Cartilage is a flexible connective tissue that differs from bone in several ways;

it is avascular and its microarchitecture is less organized than bone.

Explanation

Since mesosomes help in respiration which is performed by mitochondria in eukaryotic cells they are analogous to mitochondial function.

Explanation

The hypothalamus begins the process of ovulation by releasing GnRH in a pulsatile fashion.

This pulsatile release causes the anterior pituitary to release LH and FSH, which then act on the ovarian follicle.

Explanation

As carboxylic acids get larger (i.e., as their molecular mass increases),

They tend to have more nonpolar hydrocarbon-like portions in their structure, which can interact favorably with the hydrophobic tails of water molecules.

This increased interaction with water molecules leads to greater solubility in water.

Explanation

Phenols are highly reactive toward electrophilic aromatic substitution

because the nonbonding electrons on oxygen stabilize the intermediate cation.

the correct order of reactivity towards electrophilic substitution is Phenol > benzene > chlorobenzene > benzoic acid.

Explanation

A virus is a small infectious agent that replicates only inside the living cells of other organisms.

Viruses can infect all types of life forms, from animals and plants to microorganisms, including bacteria and archaea.
