What is the maximum amount in moles of P2O5P2O5 that can theoretically be made from 112 gg of O2O2 and excess phosphorus

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

$n_{P_2O_5}^{max}=1.4molP_2O_5$

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the reaction between phosphorous and oxygen to form diphosphorous pentoxide is:

$2P+\frac{5}{2}O_2\rightarrow P_2O_5$

Thus, since phosphorous is in excess and oxygen and diphosphorous pentoxide are in a 5/2:1 mole ratio, we can compute the maximum moles of product as shown below:

$n_{P_2O_5}^{max}=112 gO_2*\frac{1molO_2}{32.00gO_2}*\frac{1molP_2O_5}{5/2molO_2}\\\\ n_{P_2O_5}^{max}=1.4molP_2O_5$

Best regards!

sergeinik [125]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

$V_{max} = 6.8 \times 10^{-10} \mu mol/min$

$K_{m} = 5.2 \times 10^{-6} M$

Now, according to Michaelis-Menten kinetics,

$V_{o} = V_{max} \times [\frac{S}{(S + Km)}]$

where, S = substrate concentration = $10.4 \times 10^{-6}$ M

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

$V_{o} = V_{max} \times [\frac{S}{(S + Km)}]$

$V_{o} = 6.8 \times 10^{-10} \mu mol/min \times [\frac{10.4 \times 10^{-6} M}{(10.4 \times 10^{-6}M + 5.2 \times 10^{-6} M)}]$

$V_{o} = 6.8 \times 10^{-10} \mu mol/min \times 0.667$

= $4.5 \times 10^{-10} \mu mol/min$

This means that $V_{o}$ would approache $V_{max}$ .
