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

What is 5L to mL ( chemistry )
zlopas [31]

There are 1000 mililiters in a liter, so 1000 ml for every liter, you have 5 liters, so:

5L*1000 = 5000 mL

A 0.04358 g sample of gas occupies 10.0-ml at 292.0 k and 1.10 atm. upon further analysis, the compound is found to be 25.305% c
kirill [66]
<span>Answer: A 0.04403 g sample of gas occupies 10.0-mL at 289.0 K and 1.10 atm. Upon further analysis, the compound is found to be 25.305% C and 74.695% Cl. What is the molecular formula of the compound? --------------------------------------... Seems like I did a problem very similar to this--this must be the "B" test. But the halogen was different. 25.305% C/12 = 2.108 74.695% Cl/35.5 = 2.104 So the empirical formula would be CH. However, there are many compounds which fit this bill, so we have to use the gas data. (And I made, in the previous problem, the simplifying assumption that 289C and 1.10 atm would offset each other, so I'll do that, too.) 0.044 grams/10 ml = x/22.4 liters 0.044g/0.010 liters = x/22.4 liters 22.4 liters/0.010 liters = 2240 (ratio) 2240 x .044 = 98.56 (actual atomic weight) CCl = 35.5+12 or 47.5, so two of those is 95 grams/mole. This is sufficiient to distinguish C2CL2, (dichloroacetylene) from C6CL6 (hexachlorobenzene) which would mass 3 times as much.</span>

Draw a schematic of the hydrogen atom with the single proton in the nucleus, and the n=1, n=2, n=3, and n=4 energy level options
max2010maxim [7]

Explanation:

According to Bohr's postulates, the electron in the present in the lower energy level can absorb energy and exits to higher energy level. Also, when this electron returns back to its orbit, it emits some energy.

Since the hydrogen consists of 1 electron and 1 proton. The lowest energy configuration of the hydrogen is when n =1 or, when the electron is present in the K-shell or the ground state.

The possible transition for the electron given in the question is :

n = 2, 3 and 4

The schematic diagram of the hydrogen atom consisting of these four quantum levels in which the electron can jump (Absorption) and comeback to from these energy levels (emission) .

4HCI + O2 =2H20 + Cl2
Sergio039 [100]

The rate of the backward reaction increases

Explanation:

It is evident that if the reaction is left to proceed spontaneously, the forward reaction is favored because it results in a decrease in pressure in the system (The total reactants have 5 moles and the products have 3 in total).

Increasing H₂O concentration is then reaction, therefore, stymies the forward reaction and favors the reserves reaction. This is because the reverse reaction will lead to reduced pressure.
