Trypsin assists in digestion by breaking proteins down into smaller peptides. However, this process is not as efficient in the presence of fluorophosphates. Identify the role of each of these components.
Catalytic converters are used in automobiles to convert pollutants in engine emissions to benign products. Catalytic converters in today's automobiles are made of a porous ceramic brick that has been coated with catalysts, additives, stabilizers, and support materials. Corning has developed bricks that have very thin-walled channels with 600 channels per square inch. Which of the following research goals did they target?

An Updated Equilibrium MachineEmeric Schultz Describes a device that can demonstrate equilibrium and the Le Châtelier principle, as well as kinetic and thermodynamic concepts. The device consists of a leaf blower attached to a plastic container divided into two chambers by a barrier of variable size and form. Styrofoam balls can be exchanged across the barrier when various air pressures are applied by the blower. Schultz, Emeric. J. Chem. Educ.2008, 85, 1131.
