Chemistry

Goryan [66]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

C. Trp D. Phe E. Tyr

Explanation:

The concentration of a protein has a direct relation with absorbance of the protein in a UV spectrophotometer. The formula which relates concentration with absorbance is described as under:

                A = ∈ x c x l

where, A = Absorbance

            ∈ = Molar extinction co-efficient

            c  = Concentration of absorbing species i.e. protein

             l  = Path length of light

       

Tryptophan (Trp), phenylalanine (Phe ) and tyrosine (Tyr) are three aromatic amino acids which are used to measure protein concentration by UV. It is mainly because of tryptophan (Trp), protein absorbs at 280 nm which gives us an idea of protein concentration during UV spectroscopy.

The table depicting the wavelength at which these amino acids absorb and their respective molar extinction coefficient is as under:

Amino acid                Wavelength            Molar extinction co-efficient (∈)

Tryptophan                     282 nm                        5690

Tyrosine                          274 nm                        1280

Phenylalanine                 257 nm                        570

In view of table above, we can easily see that Molar extinction co-efficient (∈) of Tryptophan is highest amongst all these 3 amino acids that is why it dominates while measuring concentration.

What is the pH of a solution with a hydrogen ion concentration of 4.5 x<br> 10-6 M ?
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

<h2>5.35 </h2>

Explanation:

The pH of a solution can be found by using the formula

pH = - log [ {H}^{+} ]

We have

pH =  -  log(4.5 \times  {10}^{ - 6} )  \\  = 5.346787...

We have the final answer as

<h3>5.35 </h3>

Hope this helps you

given that 32.0g sulphur contains 6.02×10^23 sulphur atoms,how many atoms are there in 2.70g of aluminum​
dangina [55]

Answer:

6.022 × 10²² atoms

Explanation:

Generally 1 mol of any element contains 6.02×10^23  atoms. The number 6.022 × 10²³ is known as Avogadro's number.

Mass of Aluminium = 2.70g

Molar mass = 27g/mol

Number of moles = Mass / Molar mass = 2.70 / 27 = 0.1 mol

1 mol =  6.022 × 10²³

0.1 mol = x

x = 6.022 × 10²³ * 0.1 = 6.022 × 10²² atoms

Which formula contains two non- metals?<br><br>BaO<br>NaBr<br>KI<br>Si O2​
Yakvenalex [24]
SiO2 is the only possible choice because the other formulas contain metals. how do we know this? because the other formulas contain elements located on the left of the “staircase” on the periodic table that separates metals from non-metals.
