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

Lerok [7]

Answer:

35,000,000,000 mL

Explanation:

You first multiply 35 times 1000.

35,000 L

Now you multiply 35,000 times 10^6

35,000,000,000 mL

Explain why oil is called a fossil fuel.
Dmitrij [34]

Oil is referred to as a fossil fuel because it is derived from fossils.

Fossil fuels are the result of dinosaur remains being put under pressure for millions of years.
