What is the difference between condensation and hydrolysis reactions?

Condensation and hydrolysis are almost like opposite reactions. In condensation, two molecules react to form one larger molecule while giving off a smaller molecule such as water (hence the term condensation). The reverse occurs in hydrolysis where a molecule such as water attacks a larger molecule that is susceptible to hydrolysis and breaks it down into two smaller molecules.


An enzyme may react with several substrate chemicals simultaneously?

Yes, it can. Specific areas on the larger enzyme molecule can interact with the substrate.


What molecule causes transformation?

All molecule can react.


Will a solid form of a substance react faster or slower than a powdered form?

Slower


Why can ammonia molecule react with hydrogen ions but not hydrogen gas?

hydrogen gases are stable so they will react no further while hydrogen ions have no electrons so it will react with the ammonia molecule thus becoming g stable


Why reactions rates are much slower in organic compounds?

the organic paricles are molecules. Because of strong covalent bonding within the molecule, organic compounds do not readily react. Reactions involving organic compounds are generally slower than inorganic reactions.


Why don't carbonic acids react with metals?

Carbonic acid does react with metals as similar to the other acids. But in nature, carbonic acid molecule is unstable. It has an equilibrium where carbonic acid dissociates into a water molecule and a carbon dioxide molecule.


When two water molecules react what do they create?

Two water molecules can react to from hydrogen bonds. If one water molecule acts as an acid and donates a proton to another water molecule then hydronium ions an hydroxyl ions can be formed as well.


Why are some girls impatient?

Girls are simply more impatient than guys. Guys, as a fact of nature, move slower, think slower, react slower, and therefore women seem impatient to our slower mind processes. that's right.


What part of a molecule is most likely to react with other molecules?

vagina


Which will react faster bigger pieces of alka-seltzer or smaller pieces?

smaller pieces


Is reacting a metal with water the same a reacting it with oxygen?

Not all metals react with water, but some, such as metallic sodium, do react quite vigorously with water. In a sense it is true that when metals react with water it is the same as reacting with oxygen, because the water molecule (H2O) does contain oxygen, and it is the oxygen in the water molecule with which metals react. Metals do not react with the hydrogen content of the water molecule, so when metal reacts with water, hydrogen gas is produced as a byproduct. It just bubbles out of the water.
