Goryan [66]3 years ago

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.

At equilibrium, ________. At equilibrium, ________. all chemical reactions have ceased the rate constants of the forward and rev
balandron [24]

Answer:

<em>At equilibrium, the rate of the forward, and the reverse reactions are equal.</em>

Explanation:

In an equilibrium chemical reaction, the rate of forward reaction, is equal to the rate of reverse reaction. Note that the reactions does not cease at equilibrium, but rather, the reactants are converted to product, at the same rate at which the product is also being converted into the reactants in the reaction. When chemical equilibrium is reached, a careful calculation of the value of equilibrium constant is approximately equal to 1.

NB: If the value of equilibrium constant is far far greater than 1, then the reaction will favors more of the forward reaction, and if far far less than 1, the reaction will favor more of the reverse reaction.

Predict whether each of the following is soluble in water or not.
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

The soluble in water are a and b. c is not soluble in water

Explanation:

The water solubility of a compound, it depends its polarity (. KHSO4 has several polar molecules, actually it has ions charged positively like K and H, and charged negatively like sulfate (SO4-2). When it happens, molecules can do hydrogen bridges with water. It is because of above, KHSO4 can be used in wine making. Something similar happens with propylen glycol but in this case the polar part is OH- ions. Benzene has not polar parts. It is totally apolar compound.

Wax is a nonpolar substance, but the surface of a piece of glass is polar. Based on your observations from part E, which substan
KIM [24]

Based on the observations from, the substance that water is more attracted to are polar substances.

<h3>What is the Polarity of water?</h3>

Water is a compound made up of 2 atoms of hydrogen and 1 atom of oxygen.

Water molecule is polar due to the unequal sharing of electrons between the atoms and the unsymmetrical shape of the molecule.

Since water molecules are polar, they are more attracted to molecules that are also polar.

Thus, based on the observations from, the substance that water is more attracted to are polar substances.
