Answer:

Proteins.

Explanation:

Biomolecules are the organic molecules present inside the living organism. Biomolecules plays an important role in the living organism. Four important biomolecules are proteins, carbohydrates, lipids and nucleic acids.

Proteins are the made of the polymers of the amino acids linked together through the peptide bond. The compounds contains the amino acids methionine, arginine, and leucine. This compound is a protein as it is made up of amino acids.

Thus, the correct answer is option (2).

Describe the benefits and the drawback of natural gas.
Finger [1]

When looking to power your equipment or vehicle with natural gas, the first question that springs to mind is: what is natural gas? A lot of people use natural gas in their homes for cooking and heating, but they don’t really give it some thought. So, let’s see what natural gas is and how it’s different from other forms of fossil fuels like oil and coal.

Natural Gas is a fossil fuel that exist in a gaseous state and is composed mainly of methane (CH4) a small percentage of other hydrocarbons (e.g. ethane). The use of natural gas is becoming more and more popular as it can be used with commercial, industrial, electric power generation and residential applications.

A solution contains 50.0g of heptane (C7H16)and 50.0g of octane (C8H18) at 25 degrees C.The vapor pressures of pure heptane and
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

a)Pheptane = 24.3 torr          

Poctane = 5.12 torr    

b)Ptotal vapor = 29.42 torr

c)  81 % heptane

    19 % octane

d) See explanation below

Explanation:

The partial pressure is given by Raoult´s law as:

Pa = Xa Pºa where Pa = partial pressure of component A

                               Xa = mole fraction of A

                               Pºa = vapor pressure of pure A

For a binary solution what we have to do is compute the partial  vapor pressure of each component and then add them together to get total vapor pressure.

In order to calculate the composition of the vapor  in part b), we will first calculate the mole fraction of each component in the vapor which is given by the relationship:

          Xa = Pa/Pt where Xa = mol fraction of  in the vapor

                                       Pa = partial pressure of A as calculated above

                                        Pt = total vapor pressure

Once we have mole fractions we can calculate the masses of the components for part c)    

a)                  

 MW heptane = 100.21 g/mol

 MW octane = 114.23 g/mol

mol heptane = 50.0 g / 100.21 g/mol = 0.50 mol

mol octane = 50.0 g/ 114.23 g/mol = 0.44 mol

mol total = 0.94 ⇒ Xa= 0.50/0.94 = 0.53 and

                             Xb= 0.44/0.94 = 0.47

Pheptane = 0.53 x 45.8 torr = 24.3 torr

Poctane = 0.47 x 10.9 torr = 5.12 torr

b) Ptotal = 24.3 torr +5.12 torr = 29.42 torr

c) We will call Y the mole fraction in the vapor to differentiate it from the mole fraction in solution

Y heptane (in the vapor) = 24.3 torr/ 29.42 torr = 0.83

Y octane (in the vapor) = 5.12 torr/ 29.42 torr = 0.17

d) To solve this part   we will assume that since the molecular weights are similar then having a mole fraction for heptane of 0.82, we could say that for every mole of mixture we have 0.82 mol heptane and 0.17 mol octane  and then we can calculate the masses:

0.82 mol x 100.21  g/mol = 82.2 g

0.17 mol x 114.23 g/mol =  19.4 g

total mass = 101.6

% heptane = 82.2 g/101.6g x 100 = 81 %

% octane = 19 %

There is another way to do this more exactly by calculating the average molecular weight of the mixture:

average MW = 0.83 (100.21 g/mol)  + 0.17 ( 114.23 g/mol ) = 102. 6 g/mol

and then  having a mol fraction of 0.83  means in 1 mol of mixture we have 0.83 mol heptane and 0.17 mol octane then the masses are:

mass heptane = 0.83 x 100.21 g/mol = 83.2 g

mass octane = 0.17 x  114.23 g/mol = 19.4 g

mass of mixture = 1 mol x MW mixture = 1 mol x 102.6 g/mol 102.6 g

% heptane = (83.2 g/ 102.6 g ) x 100 g = 81 %

% octane = 100 - 81 = 19 %

d)The composition of the vapor is different from the composition of the solution because the vapor is going to be richer in the more volatile compound in the solution which in this case is heptane ( 45.8  vs 10.9 torr).
