A piston containing an ideal gas expands isothermally
from 7 atm pressure to 2 atm pressure. The energy of
the system (that is, the contents of the piston) remains
constant during this process. correct answers True
A protein is negatively charged, but it binds a negatively
charged small molecule faster than it binds a positively
charged small molecule. The most reasonable
explanation for this phenomenon is: correct answers Even though the protein is negatively
charged
overall, electrostatic focusing effects provide a
pathway for a negatively charged molecule to enter
the active site

transferred to the system under which of the following
conditions? correct answers constant pressure
Energy is a good indicator of the direction of
spontaneous change for macroscopic mechanical
objects but not for molecular processes correct answers True

c. Potential energy is always absolutely conserved.
d. The potential energy of a system always increases.
, e. Potential energy is an intensive function correct answers b. The potential energy of an atom is
the work
done in moving the atom from infinity to its
present position.

equilibrium)
c. immediately upon mixing of the two sets of
molecules
d. prior to mixing of the two sets of molecules correct answers a. 10 seconds (equilibrium)
