How many hydrogen bonds will be found within an alpha helix that is 18 amino acids long?.

Chemistry

LekaFEV [45]2 years ago
5 0

An alpha helix which is 18 amino acids long will have 12 hydrogen bonds.

<h3>What is alpha helix (α-helix) ?</h3>

The alpha helix (α-helix) is a common in the secondary structure of proteins and is a right hand-helix conformation in which every backbone N−H group hydrogen bonds to the backbone C=O. group of the amino acid located four residues earlier along the protein sequence.

The alpha helix is stabilized by hydrogen bonds (shown as dashed lines) from the carbonyl oxygen of one amino acid to the amino group of a second amino acid.

Because the amino acids connected by each hydrogen bond are four apart in the primary sequence, these main chain hydrogen bonds are called "n to n+4.

The density of water at 4 degrees Celsius is 1.00 g/cm cubed at unknown object has density of 7.9 g/cm cubed would you expect it
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

The object will be sank

Explanation:

In this case the object is more dense than water.

Density is the relationship between a certain amount of mass of matter and the volume that is being occupied by it.

The object occupies more volume, so it occupies more mass.

As the mass from the object is higher, the object will be sank because the weight is higher than the weight from the liquid.

If the object has a lower density than the water, it will float on it.

What is the pH of a solution with a concentration of 4.7 × 10-4 molar H3O+?
wlad13 [49]
The pH of a liquid substance is calculated through the equation,
                                       pH = -log[H3O+]
Substituting the given concentration of the hydronium ion to the equation above,
                                        pH = -log[4.7x10^-4 M]
The value of pH is equal to 3.33. Thus, the pH of the solution is approximately 3.33.

Un deportista de 72 kg trepa por una cuerda hasta una altura de 12m. Calcula el incremento de energía potencial gravitatoria que
Oxana [17]

A 72 kg athlete climbs a rope to a height of 12m. Calculate the increase in gravitational potential energy it has experienced.

Answer:

8467.2J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the athlete = 72kg

Height of the climb  = 12m

Unknown:

Increase in gravitational potential energy it has experienced = ?

Solution:

Gravitational potential energy is the energy due to the position of a body. It is mathematically expressed as;

  Gravitational potential energy  = m x g x h

m is the mass

g is the acceleration due to gravity  = 9.8m/s²

h is the height

   Insert the parameters and solve;

  Gravitational potential energy  = 72 x 9.8 x 12

  GPE = 8467.2J
