What does your data indicate about the optimum ph level for this enzyme-catalyzed reaction?

1 answer:

3 0

At an optimum pH of 7.0, there are more molecules per minute in all amounts of substrate thus this pH is ideal for maximum growth. 5. Enzymes function most efficiently at the temperature of a typical cell, which is 37 degrees Celsius. Increases or decreases in temperature can significantly lower the reaction rate.

A beaker with 155 mL of an acetic acid buffer with a pH of 5.000 is sitting on a benchtop. The total molarity of acid and conjug

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

ΔpH = 0.296

Explanation:

The equilibrium of acetic acid (CH₃COOH) in water is:

CH₃COOH ⇄ CH₃COO⁻ + H⁺

Henderson-Hasselbalch formula to find pH in a buffer is:

pH = pKa + log₁₀ [CH₃COO⁻] / [CH₃COOH]

Replacing with known values:

5.000 = 4.740 + log₁₀ [CH₃COO⁻] / [CH₃COOH]

0.260 = log₁₀ [CH₃COO⁻] / [CH₃COOH]

1.820 = [CH₃COO⁻] / [CH₃COOH] (1)

As total molarity of buffer is 0.100M:

[CH₃COO⁻] + [CH₃COOH] = 0.100M (2)

Replacing (2) in (1):

1.820 = 0.100M - [CH₃COOH] / [CH₃COOH]

1.820[CH₃COOH] = 0.100M - [CH₃COOH]

2.820[CH₃COOH] = 0.100M

[CH₃COOH] = 0.100M / 2.820

[CH₃COOH] = 0.035M

Thus: [CH₃COO⁻] = 0.100M - 0.035M = 0.065M

5.40 mL of a 0.490 M HCl are:

0.0054L × (0.490mol / L) = 2.646x10⁻³ moles HCl.

Moles of CH₃COO⁻ are: 0.155L × (0.065mol / L) = 0.0101 moles

HCl reacts with CH₃COO⁻ thus:

HCl + CH₃COO⁻ → CH₃COOH

After reaction, moles of CH₃COO⁻ are:

0.0101 moles - 2.646x10⁻³ moles = 7.429x10⁻³ moles of CH₃COO⁻

Moles of CH₃COOH before reaction are: 0.155L × (0.035mol / L) = 5.425x10⁻³ moles of CH₃COOH. As reaction produce 2.646x10⁻³ moles of CH₃COOH, final moles are:

5.425x10⁻³ moles + 2.646x10⁻³ moles = 8.071x10⁻³ moles of CH₃COOH. Replacing these values in Henderson-Hasselbalch formula:

pH = 4.740 + log₁₀ [7.429x10⁻³ moles] / [8.071x10⁻³ moles]

pH = 4.704

As initial pH was 5.000, change in pH is:

ΔpH = 5.000 - 4.740 = 0.296

The ideal gas heat capacity of nitrogen varies with temperature. It is given by:

hammer [34]

Answer:

A) 1059 J/mol

B) 17,920 J/mol

Explanation:

Given that:

Cp = 29.42 - (2.170*10^-3 ) T + (0.0582*10^-5 ) T2 + (1.305*10^-8 ) T3 – (0.823*10^-11) T4

R (constant) = 8.314

We know that:

$C_p=C_v+R$

We can determine $C_v$ from above if we make $C_v$ the subject of the formula as:

$C_v$ $=C_p-R$

$C_V = 29.42-(2.7*10^{-3})T+(5.82*10^{-7})T2-(1.305*10^{-8})T3-(8.23*10^{-12})T4-8.314$

$C_V = 21.106-(2.7*10^{-3})T+(5.82*10^{-7})T2-(1.305*10^{-8})T3-(8.23*10^{-12})T4$

A).

The formula for calculating change in internal energy is given as:

$dU=C_vdT$

If we integrate above data into the equation; it implies that:

$U2-U1=\int\limits^{500}_{450}(21.106-(2.7*10^{-3})T+(5.82*10^{-7})T2-(1.305*10^{-8})T3-(8.23*10^{-12})T4\,) du$

$U2-U1=\int\limits^{500}_{450}(21.106-(2.7*10^{-3})T/1+(5.82*10^{-7})T2/2-(1.305*10^{-8})T3/3-(8.23*10^{-12})T4/4\,)$

$U2-U1= 1059J/mol$

Hence, the internal energy that must be added to nitrogen in order to increase its temperature from 450 to 500 K = 1059 J/mol.

B).

If we repeat part A for an initial temperature of 273 K and final temperature of 1073 K.

then T = 273 K & T2 = 1073 K

∴

$U2-U1=\int\limits^{500}_{450}(21.106-(2.7*10^{-3})T/1+(5.82*10^{-7})T2/2-(1.305*10^{-8})T3/3-(8.23*10^{-12})T4/4\,)$

$U2-U1=\int\limits^{500}_{450}(21.106-(2.7*10^{-3})273/1+(5.82*10^{-7})1073/2-(1.305*10^{-8})T3/3-(8.23*10^{-12})T4/4\,)$

$U2-U1= 17,920 J/mol$

Which of the following is a likely mechanism for the reaction CH3Cl + OH- ----> CH3OH + Cl-, which is first order with respec

abruzzese [7]

Answer:

A one-step mechanism involving a transition state that has a carbon partially bonded to both chlorine and oxygen

Explanation:

The compound CH3Cl is methyl chloride. This is a nucleophilic substitution reaction that proceeds by an SN2 mechanism. The SN2 mechanism is a concerted reaction mechanism. This means that the departure of the leaving group is assisted by the incoming nucleophile. The both species are partially bonded to opposite sides of the carbon atom in the transition state.

Recall that an SN2 reaction is driven by the attraction between the negative charge of the nucleophile (OH^-) and the positive charge of the electrophile (the partial positive charge on the carbon atom bearing the chlorine leaving group).
