Biuret reagent will indicate the presence of protein in a given sample. It is also known as the Piotrowski's test. This reagent consists of copper (II) sulfate and sodium hydroxide. It detects peptide bonds by the reaction of the copper ions in an alkaline solution. The copper ions would form violet colored complexes when peptide is present in the solution. From this test, concentration can be calculated since the intensity of the color depends on the amount of peptide bonds and according to the Beer-Lambert law concentration and the absorption of light is proportional. The concentration is calculated by a spectrophotometric technique at a wavelength of 540 nm.

What is the molarity of an aqueous solution that contains 78g of C6H12O6 dissolved in 2500 mL of solution?

dusya [7]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf molarity = 0.17 \ M \ C_6H_12O_6}}$

Explanation:

Molarity is found by dividing the moles of solute by liters of solution.

$molarity = \frac {moles}{liters}$

We are given grams of a compound and milliliters of solution, so we must make 2 conversions.

1. Gram to Moles

We must use the molar mass. First, use the Periodic Table to find the molar masses of the individual elements.

C: 12.011 g/mol
H: 1.008 g/mol
O: 15.999 g/mol

Next, look at the formula and note the subscripts. This tells us the number of atoms in 1 molecule. We multiply the molar mass of each element by its subscript.

6(12.011)+12(1.008)+6(15.999)=180.156 g/mol

Use this number as a ratio.

$\frac {180.156 \ g\ C_6H_12 O_6}{ 1 \ mol \ C_6H_12O_6}$

Multiply by the given number of grams.

$78 \ g \ C_6H_12O_6 *\frac {180.156 \ g\ C_6H_12 O_6}{ 1 \ mol \ C_6H_12O_6}$

Flip the fraction and divide.

$78 \ g \ C_6H_12O_6 *\frac { 1 \ mol \ C_6H_12O_6}{180.156 \ g\ C_6H_12 O_6}$

$\frac { 78 \ mol \ C_6H_12O_6}{180.156 }= 0.432958102977 \ mol \ C_6H_12O_6$

2. Milliliters to Liters

There are 1000 milliliters in 1 liter.

$\frac {1 \ L }{ 1000 \ mL}$

Multiply by 2500 mL.

$2500 \ mL* \frac {1 \ L }{ 1000 \ mL}$

$2500 * \frac {1 \ L }{ 1000 }= 2.5 \ L$

3. Calculate Molarity

Finally, divide the moles by the liters.

$molarity = \frac {0.432958102977 \ mol \ C_6H_12O_6}{ 2.5 \ L}$

$molarity = 0.173183241191 \ mol \ C_6H_12O_6/L$

The original measurement has 2 significant figures, so our answer must have the same. That is the hundredth place and the 3 tells us to leave the 7.

$molarity \approx 0.17 \ mol \ C_6H_12O_6 /L$

1 mole per liter is also equal to 1 M.

$molarity = 0.17 \ M \ C_6H_12O_6$

The equation for the synthesis of ammonia is below. How many moles of H 2 are

kkurt [141]

Moles of H₂ are needed to produce 9.33 moles of NH₃ : 13.995

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

A reaction coefficient is a number in the chemical formula of a substance involved in the reaction equation. The reaction coefficient is useful for equalizing reagents and products.

The reaction coefficient in a chemical equation shows the mole ratio of the reactants and products

Reaction for the synthesis of ammonia :

N₂+3H₂⇒2NH₃

moles of NH₃ = 9.33

From equation, mol ratio of H₂ : NH₃ = 3 : 2, so mol H₂ :

$\tt =\dfrac{3}{2}\times 9.33\\\\=13.995$
