Chapter 7, Problem 7.45P
7-45 (Chemical Connections 7C) A painkiller—for example, Tylenol—can be purchased in two forms, each containing the same amount of drug. One form is a solid coated pill, and the other is a capsule that contains tiny beads and has the same coat. Which medication will act faster? Explain.

Iodide, I–, is a catalyst for the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide to give water and oxygen gas:
2 H2O2 (aq) –––> 2 H2O (aq) + O2 (g); ∆Hrxn = –188 kJ/mol
Draw a qualitatively accurate reaction diagram (with energy on the y axis, extent of reaction on x axis) to which shows how the path from reactants to products differs between the catalyzed and uncatalyzed versions of the reaction. Label Eain both of the curves. In a few words, define what is meant by “Ea”.
Explain correctly and explain with step by step
True or false?
For chemical reactions that occurs in multiple steps, the fastest step in the reaction mechanism requires the most amount of energy to proceed.

The conversion of water and carbon dioxide into bicarbonate and hydrogen ions occurs through the action of an enzyme called carbonic anhydrase. Use the Law of Mass Action to predict which direction this equation will go under different circumstances. CO2 + H2O ↔ H+ + HCO3- Hyperventilating would increase the loss of carbon dioxide (CO2) from the blood. In what direction would the reaction above go in order to restore equilibrium?
