Global warming is mainly caused by increase in atmospheric: MCQ with Answer and Explanation

Explanation:
Enzymes are biological catalysts that function optimally at moderate temperatures (around 35-40°C for human enzymes). Most enzymes denature and lose activity at temperatures above 50-60°C, as the protein structure unfolds. They are highly specific (lock-and-key model), protein in nature, and lower activation energy without being consumed. Some thermophilic bacteria have enzymes active at high temperatures, but typical enzymes are not stable at >100°C.

Explanation:
In a Daniel cell, the anode (where oxidation occurs) is a zinc rod immersed in ZnSO₄ solution. The cathode is a copper rod in CuSO₄ solution. Zinc is more reactive, so it loses electrons (Zn → Zn²⁺ + 2e⁻) and acts as the negative terminal of the cell.

Explanation:
Sulphuric acid (H₂SO₄) is historically called oil of vitriol because it was prepared by distilling green vitriol (ferrous sulfate heptahydrate). It is a dense, oily liquid. Nitric acid is aqua fortis, hydrochloric acid was called muriatic acid or spirit of salt. Sulphuric acid is the king of chemicals due to its widespread use in industries like fertilizer, petroleum refining, and chemical synthesis.
