A molecule with the formula ch3ch(nh2)cooh probably exhibit which of the folloiwng characteristics

1 answer:

3 0

Considering the answers;
1)Molecules with this formula would likely be hydrophobic.
2)Polymers of this molecule can serve as storage or structural components. 
3)The side chains of this molecule would determine its function. 
4)This type of molecule serves as a vehicle for transmission of genetic material
The correct answer is; 2) Polymers of this molecule can serve as storage or structural components.
The molecule shown in the question is an amino acid; alanine to be specific.
The molecule is not hydrophobic; The side chain does determine its function, but only in comparison with other amino acids that do not share this formula. Amino acids are not vehicles for genetic material; that's nucleic acids.

In the following reaction, which substance is the precipitate? (NH4)2SO4(aq) + Ba(NO3)2(aq) BaSO4(s) + 2NH4NO3(aq

mariarad [96]

Assuming that the reactants are:

(NH4)2SO4 (aq) + Ba(NO3)2 (aq)

and the products are:

BaSO4 (s) + 2NH4NO3 (aq),

then you will have to determine which product is insoluble. You should have access to solubility rules to help you determine this.

According to the solubility rules, the following elements are considered insoluble when paired with SO4:

Sr^2+, Ba^2+, Pb^2+, Ag^2+, and Ca^2+

Therefore, the precipitate will be BaSO4 (s).

How do solve for #13?What is the boiling point of a solution made by dissolving 1.0000 mole of sucrose in 1.0000 kg of water?

exis [7]

What is the boiling point of a solution made by dissolving 1.0000 mole of sucrose in 1.0000 kg of water?

The change in Boiling Point of water can be calculated using this formula:

ΔTb = i * Kb * m

Where i is the van't hoff factor (the number of particles or ions), the kb is a constant (boiling point elevation constant) and m is the molality of the solution.

The kb for water is always 0.515 °C/m. Kb = 0.515 °C/m

The value for i in this case is 1. Since sucrose is a covalent compound and it doesn't dissociate into ions. i = 1

The molal concentration of the solution can be found using this formula:

molality = moles of sucrose/kg of water

molality = 1.000 mol / 1.000 kg of water

molality = 1 m

Now that we know all the values, we can use the formula to find the change in the boiling point of water:

ΔTb = i * Kb * m

ΔTb = 1 * 0.515 °C/m * 1 m

ΔTb = 0.515 °C

Finally, we are asked for the boiling point of the solution, not the change. The boiling point of water at atmospheric pressure is 100.00 °C. If the boiling point rises 0.515 °C when we prepare the solution. The boiling point of the solution is:

Boiling point solution = Boiling point of water + ΔTb

Boiling point solution = 100.000 °C + 0.515 °C

Boiling point solution = 100.515 °C

Answer: The boiling point of the solution is 100.515 °C.

Pick the correct statement for the following isotope: a. 42Ca 42 is the mass number and 20 is the atomic number. b. 42 is the nu

kramer

Answer:

Explanation:

To label an element correctly using a combination of the symbol, mass number and atomic number furnishes some important information about the element.

We can obtain these information from the element provided that correct labeling of the element is presented. Firstly, after writing the symbol of the element, the atomic number is placed as a subscript on the left while the mass number of the atomic mass is placed as a superscript on the same left.

Looking at the question asked, we have the element symbol in the correct position as Ca, with 42 also in the correct position which is the mass number. The third number which is 20 is thus the atomic number of the element.

The conversion of acetyl chloride to methyl acetate occurs via the following two-step mechanism: Reaction sequence of acetyl chl

Svetlanka [38]

If the concentration of acetyl chloride is increased ten times the rate of reaction is increased ten times.

The conversion of acetyl chloride to methyl acetate is a substitution reaction. Recall that a substitution reaction is one in which a moiety in a molecule is replaced by another.

In this reaction, the CH3O- ion replaces the chloride ion. In the first step, the CH3O- ion attacks the substrate in a slow step. This creates a tetrahedral intermediate. Loss of the chloride ion yields the methyl acetate product.

The rate determining step is the formation of the tetrahedral intermediate. Since the reaction is first order in the acetyl chloride, if its concentration is increased ten times the rate of reaction is increased ten times.
