A protein subunit from an enzyme is part of a research study and needs to be characterized. A total of 0.145 g of this subunit w

as dissolved in enough water to produce 2.00 mL of solution. At 28 ∘C the osmotic pressure produced by the solution was 0.138 atm. What is the molar mass of the protein?

Answer:

The molar mass of the protein is 12982.8 g/mol.

Explanation:

The osmptic pressure is given by:

π=MRT

Where,

M: is molarity of the solution

R: the ideal gas constant (0.0821 L·atm/mol·K)

T: the temperature in kelvins

Hence, we look for molarity:

0.138 atm=M(0.0821\frac{l*atm}{mol*K} )(28+273K)

M=\frac{0.138atm}{(0.0821\frac{l*atm}{mol*K} )(301K)}= =5.584×10⁻³mol/l

As we have 2 ml of solution, we can get the moles quantity:

Moles of protein: 5.584×10⁻³\frac{mol}{l}\frac{1l}{1000ml}×2ml=1.117×10⁻⁵mol

Finally, the moles quantity is the division between the mass of the protein and the molar mass of the protein, so:

Moles=Mass/Molar mass

Molar mass= Mass/Moles=\frac{0.145g}{1.117*10^{-5}mol}=12982.8 g/mol

An electron charge e mass m and a positron charge e mass m revolve around their common center of mass under the influence of the
Katen [24]

Answer: v = 2π2 Kme2 Z / nh

Explanation:

The formula for velocity of an electron in the nth orbit is given as,

v = 2π2 Kme2 Z / nh

v = velocity

K = 1/(4πε0)

m= mass of an electron

e = Charge on an electron

Z= atomic number

h= Planck’s constant

b) If 1.5 mole of oxygen reacted, how many mole of iron (III) oxide would be formed from the reaction?
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

If there reacted 1.5 moles of O2, there will be produced 1.0 mol of Fe2O3

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Number of moles oxygen reacted = 1.5 moles

Step 2: The balanced equation

4Fe + 3O2 → 2Fe2O3

Step 3: Calculate moles of Fe2O3

For 4 moles Fe consumed, we need 3 moles of O2 to produce 2 moles of Fe2O3

For 1.5 moles O2 consumed, we'll have 2/3 * 1.5 = 1.0 mol of Fe2O3

If there reacted 1.5 moles of O2, there will be produced 1.0 mol of Fe2O3

Human blood consists of blood groups A, B, and O. However, there is one more blood group, AB, which contains alleles A and B in
algol13
It is codominant inheritance because, if the placement of the A and B molecules on each cell is controlled by the proteins that are coded by different versions of the same gene, then <span>IA and IB </span><span>are codominant but both are dominant to I<span>o</span>. If a person receives an <span>IA </span>allele and a <span>IB</span> allele, their blood type is type AB, in which characteristics of both A and B antigens are expressed.

What is the correct chemical equation for the reaction between methane and oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water?
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:   CH₄     +    3/2 O₂     ⇒     CO₂    +   2 H₂O

Explanation:

Methane = CH₄

Oxygen = O

Carbon dioxide = CO₂

Water = H₂O

                      CH₄     +    3/2 O₂     ⇒     CO₂    +   2 H₂O

        This is the balanced equation
