Lysine is an amino acid that is an essential part of nutrition but which is not synthesized by the human body. What is the molar

mass of lysine if 750.0 mL of a solution containing 8.60 g of lysine has an osmotic pressure of 1.918 atm? Temperature = 25.0°C

Answer:

Molar mass of lysine is 146.267 grams per mole.

Explanation:

Osmotic pressure(π) is given by the formula

π = cRT

where c is concentration in \frac{moles}{L} (Molarity).

c = no of moles per volume in litres.

R is universal gas constant = 0.0821 \frac{L-atm}{mole-K}

T is temperature in K.

Substituting values in the above equation gives

1.918 = \frac{8.6\times1000}{M\times750}\times0.0821\times298

M = 146.267 grams per mole.

Answer:

The molar mass of lysine using the ideal gas equation for this problem is 146.25 g/mole.

Explanation:

The ideal gas equation PV = nRT, was derived from the ABC laws (Avogadros, Boyles and Charles laws). We need to obtain the value for the number of moles n.

The parameters of this equation are:

P = 1.918 atm

V = 750.0mL = 0.75L

n = ?

R = 0.0821

T = 25 degree celcius = 25 + 273 = 298 degree kelvin.

From this formular, n = (PV)/(RT)

n = (1.918 X 0.75)/(0.0821 X 298 )

n = 0.0588

n, no of mole = mass/molar mass

0.0588 = 8.6/MM

MM = 8.6/0.0588

MM = 146.25g/mole.

krek1111 [17]

Answer:

676mmHg

Explanation:

Using the formula;

P1/T1 = P2/T2

Where;

P1 = initial pressure (mmHg)

P2 = final pressure (mmHg)

T1 = initial temperature (K)

T2 = final temperature (K)

According to the information provided in this question;

P1 = 725.0mmHg

P2 = ?

T1 = 20°C = 20 + 273 = 293K

T2 = 0°C = 0 + 273 = 273K

Using P1/T1 = P2/T2

725/293 = P2/273

Cross multiply

725 × 273 = 293 × P2

197925 = 293P2

P2 = 197925 ÷ 293

P2 = 676mmHg.

The resulting pressure is 676mmHg
