The Michaelis constant for pancreatic lipase is 5 mM. At 60 C, lipase is subject to deactivation with a half-life of 8 min. Fat
Dmitriy789 [7]

Explanation:

According to the given data, we will calculate the following.

 Half life of lipase t_{1/2} = 8 min x 60 s/min

                                       = 480 s

Rate constant for first order reaction is as follows.

         k_{d} = \frac{0.6932}{480}

                        = 1.44 \times 10^{-3}s^{-1}&#10;

Initial fat concentration S_{o} = 45 mol/m^{3}

                                                = 45 mmol/L

Rate of hydrolysis V_m_{o} = 0.07 mmol/L/s

Conversion X = 0.80

Final concentration (S) = S_{o} (1 - X)

                                      = 45 (1 - 0.80)

                                      = 9 mol/m^{3}

or,                                  = 9 mmol/L

It is given that K_{m} = 5mmol/L

Therefore, time taken will be calculated as follows.

                    t = -\frac{1}{K_{d}}ln[1 - \frac{K_{d}}{V}{K_{M} ln (\frac{S_{o}}{S}) + (S_{o} - S)]

Now, putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

            t = -\frac{1}{K_{d}}ln[1 - \frac{K_{d}}{V}{K_{M} ln (\frac{S_{o}}{S}) + (S_{o} - S)]  

             = -\frac{1}{1.44 \times 10^{-3}s^{-1}}ln[1 - \frac{1.44 \times 10^{-3}s^{-1}}{0.07 mmol/L/s&#10;}{K_{M} ln (\frac{45 mmol/L&#10;}{9 mmol/L&#10;}) + (45 mmol/L - 9 mmol/L&#10;)]

              = 1642.83 s \times \frac{1 min}{60 sec}

              = 27.38 min

Therefore, we can conclude that time taken by the enzyme to hydrolyse 80% of the fat present is 27.38 min.

Two solutions namely, 500 ml of 0.50 m hcl and 500 ml of 0.50 m naoh at the same temperature of 21.6 are mixed in a constant-pre
weeeeeb [17]

24.6 ℃

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide reacts by the following equation:

\text{HCl} \; (aq) + \text{NaOH} \; (aq) \to \text{NaCl} \; (aq) + \text{H}_2\text{O} \; (aq)

which is equivalent to

\text{H}^{+} \; (aq) + \text{OH}^{-} \; (aq) \to \text{H}_2\text{O}\; (l)

The question states that the second equation has an enthalpy, or "heat", of neutralization of -56.2 \; \text{kJ}. Thus the combination of every mole of hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions in solution would produce 56.2 \; \text{kJ} or 56.2 \times 10^{3}\; \text{J} of energy.

500 milliliter of a 0.50 mol per liter "M" solution contains 0.25 moles of the solute. There are thus 0.25 moles of hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions in the two 0.500 milliliter solutions, respectively. They would combine to release 0.25 \times 56.2 \times 10^{3} = 1.405 \times 10^{4} \; \text{J} of energy.

Both the solution and the calorimeter absorb energy released in this neutralization reaction. Their temperature change is dependent on the heat capacity <em>C</em> of the two objects, combined.

The question has given the heat capacity of the calorimeter directly.

The heat capacity (the one without mass in the unit) of water is to be calculated from its mass and <em>specific</em> heat.

The calorimeter contains 1.00 liters or 1.00 \times 10^{3} \; \text{ml} of the 1.0 gram per milliliter solution. Accordingly, it would have a mass of 1.00 \times 10^{3} \; \text{g}.

The solution has a specific heat of 4.184 \; \text{J} \cdot \text{g}^{-1} \cdot \text{K}^{-1}. The solution thus have a heat capacity of 4.184 \times 1.00 \times 10^{3} = 4.184 \times 10^{3} \; \text{J} \cdot\text{K}^{-1}. Note that one degree Kelvins K is equivalent to one degree celsius ℃ in temperature change measurements.

The calorimeter-solution system thus has a heat capacity of 4.634 \times 10^{3} \; \text{J} \cdot \text{K}^{-1}, meaning that its temperature would rise by 1 degree celsius on the absorption of 4.634 × 10³ joules of energy. 1.405 \times 10^{4} \; \text{J} are available from the reaction. Thus, the temperature of the system shall have risen by 3.03 degrees celsius to 24.6 degrees celsius by the end of the reaction.
