What else can I help you with?
Can heat break up a water molecule?
no it cannot
How many water molecule's would be needed to break amylase down into four glucose molecule's?
87
Does ionic compound break into ions?
Yes, when combined with water the ions will dissociate because of the polarity of the water molecule.
Why does water dissolve sugar?
Because sugar is a polar molecule, which in other words means it can easily dissolve in polar solvents such as water. Water breaks the bonds between the sugar molecules, it does not break the bonds within the molecule.
What is hydrolysis's?
Hydrolysis is adding a molecule of water to a bond to break or reform the bond. Enzymes, of a certain type, can do this.
What word is used to describe the process that uses water to break apart a large molecule?
Dynthes
How can you break a water molecule?
A water molecule can be broken down through a process called electrolysis, where an electric current is passed through water to separate it into oxygen and hydrogen gas. This process requires energy and specialized equipment to split the two elements.
The process of breaking apart two bonds with water is called?
When certain molecular crystals are added to water, they are able to dissolve and break down into their original molecules, if they are affected by the interatomic hydrogen bonds that water induces. A simple answer: dissolving.
How do you reverse dehydration synthesis?
Dehydration synthesis cannot be reversed directly. To break down the molecules formed during dehydration synthesis, a hydrolysis reaction is required. This involves adding water to break the bonds between the molecules and return them to their original components.
When water evaporates do the covalent bonds between O atoms and H atoms break or do the hydrogen bonds break and why?
When water evaporates, it is the hydrogen bonds between water molecules that break, not the covalent bonds within each water molecule. The hydrogen bonds are weaker intermolecular forces that hold water molecules together. Breaking these bonds allows the water molecules to escape as vapor.
Does Hydrolysis or dehydration produce water as a byproduct?
Hydrolysis produces water as a byproduct, while dehydration consumes water as a reactant. In hydrolysis, a water molecule is split to break a chemical bond. In dehydration, a water molecule is required to form a new chemical bond.
Can one molecule of water be broken down and still be water?
No.One molecule of water actually consits of 2 different elements. I'm sure you've heard of H2O. What this means is in every molecule of water there are two parts of Hydrogen and one part Oxygen. So if you break the water down you wind up with Hydrogen and Oxygen.
