Th e molar absorption coeffi cients of tryptophan and tyrosine at 240 nm are 2.00 × 103 dm3 mol−1 cm−1 and 1.12 × 104 dm3 mol−1

cm−1 , respectively, and at 280 nm they are 5.40 × 103 dm3 mol−1 cm−1 and 1.50 × 103 dm3 mol−1 cm−1 . Th e absorbance of a sample obtained by hydrolysis of a protein was measured in a cell of thickness 1.00 cm and was found to be 0.660 at 240 nm and 0.221 at 280 nm. What are the concentrations of the two amino acids?

Answer:

5.43x10⁻⁵ dm³mol⁻¹= Concentration of tyrosine

2.58x10⁻⁵ dm³mol⁻¹= Concentration of tryptophan

Explanation:

Lambert-Beer law is:

A = E×C×l

Where A is measured absorbance, E is absorption coefficient, C is concentration of solution and l is optical path length.

For the result at 240nm, it is possible to write:

0.660 = 2.00x10³ dm³mol⁻¹cm⁻¹× Ctry × 1cm + 1.12x10⁴ dm³mol⁻¹cm⁻¹× Ctyr × 1cm <em>(1)</em>

At 280 nm:

0.221 = 5.40x10³ dm³mol⁻¹cm⁻¹× Ctry × 1cm + 1.50x10³ dm³mol⁻¹cm⁻¹× Ctyr × 1cm <em>(2)</em>

<em></em>

Thus:

-2.7× (0.660 = 2.00x10³ × Ctry  + 1.12x10⁴ × Ctyr) =

-1.782 = -5.40x10³Ctry - 3.024x10⁴Ctyr

0.221 = 5.40x10³ × Ctry + 1.50x10³  × Ctyr

-------------------------------------------------------------------

-1.561 = -28740×Ctyr

<em>5.43x10⁻⁵ dm³mol⁻¹= Ctyr</em>

Replacing this value in (1) or (2) it is possible to find Ctry, that is:

<em>2.58x10⁻⁵ dm³mol⁻¹= Ctry</em>

C2F4 effuses through a barrier at a rate of 4.6x10-6 mol/hour, while an unknown gas effuses at a rate of 5.8x10-6 mol/hour. What
umka21 [38]
The  molar mass  of  the unknown  compound  is   calculated   as   follows

let the unknown  gas be represented by   letter  Y

Rate of C2F4/  rate of  Y  = sqrt of   molar  mass of gas Y/ molar mass of  C2F4

 =  (4.6  x10^-6/ 5.8  x10^-6)  = sqrt  of  Y/ 100

remove  the  square  root  sign  by  squaring  in both  side

(4.6  x  10^-6 / 5.8  x10^-6)^2 =  Y/100

= 0.629 =Y/100

multiply  both side  by  100

Y=  62.9 is  the molar  mass of unknown  gas

What properties you can determine for carbon and calcium based on their respective locations on the periodic table​
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

Carbon is non metal because it is found in the right side of the periodic table while calcium is metal because it is found in the left side of the periodic table.

If 42.8 mL of 0.204 M HCl solution is needed to neutralize a solution of Ca(OH)2, how many grams of Ca(OH)2 must be in the solut
Aneli [31]

Hey There!

At neutralisation moles of H⁺ from HCl  = moles of OH⁻ from Ca(OH)2  so :

0.204 * 42.8 / 1000  => 0.0087312 moles

Moles of Ca(OH)2 :

2 HCl + Ca(OH)2 = CaCl2 + 2 H2O

0.0087312 / 2 => 0.0043656 moles (  since each Ca(OH)2 ives 2 OH⁻ ions )

Therefore:

Molar mass Ca(OH)2 = 74.1 g/mol

mass = moles of Ca(OH)2 * molar mass

mass =  0.0043656 * 74.1

mass = 0.32 g of Ca(OH)2


Hope that helps!

Vlada [557]

According to molecular orbital theory,  regions of  wave function with highest probability of finding electrons are areas with constructive interference.

An electron is a negatively charged subatomic particle that can exist either free or bound to an atom (not bound). A bound electron is one of the three primary types of particles that make up an atom, along with protons and neutrons. Protons, neutrons, and electrons combined make up the atom's nucleus. A proton's positive charge balances an electron's negative charge. When an atom has an equal number of protons and electrons, it is said to be in a neutral state. Electrons are distinct from other particles in a number of ways. They have a much lower mass, are found outside the nucleus, and exhibit both wave- and particle-like characteristics. The electron is a basic particle.
