Why would adding water to the ester reaction mixture help us smell the ester

Predict the products butane (c4h10) + oxygen —>

In which phase(s) do the molecules take the shape of the container?

The human eye contains a molecule called 11-cis-retinal that changes shape when struck with light of sufficient energy. the change in shape triggers a series of events that results in an electrical signal being sent to the brain that results in vision. the minimum energy required to change the conformation of 11-cis-retinal within the eye is about 164 kj/mol.
