If a solution contains 1 x 106 hb molecules, how many o2 binding sites are available? if the solution of hb is 50% saturated wit

h o2, how many binding sites are occupied by o2? if the hb solution is 23% saturated with o2, how many binding sites are occupied by o2?

Actually each molecule of Hb can bind four oxygen molecules. So given 1 x 10^6 Hb, so there are 4 x 10^6 binding sites available.

If only 50% of the Hb are bound, so this means that 2 x 10^6 binding sites are occupied by O2. However we must remember that hemoglobin binding is an all-or-nothing phenomenon. Meaning that each molecule of Hb binds four molecules of oxygen or zero at all.

<span>If 23% is saturated, so the number of binding sites occupied is 0.92 x 10^6 binding sites or 9.2 x 10^5 binding sites.</span>

To construct the galvanic cell illustrated above, the salt bridge was prepared by soaking a piece of cotton in 5.0MNaNO3(aq) bef
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

The cell reaction reaches equilibrium quickly and the cell emf becomes zero.

Explanation:

The purpose of a salt bridge is not to move electrons from the electrolyte, its main function is to maintain charge balance because the electrons are moving from one-half cell to the other.

A solution of a salt that dissociates easily is normally used. Water is ineffective at functioning as a salt bridge. Hence the effect stated in the answer.

A+100+gram+alloy+of+nickel+and+copper+consists+of+70+wt+%+ni+and+30+wt+%+cu.+what+are+the+atom+percentages+of+ni+and+cu+in+this+
Softa [21]

Atomic percentages<u>: 68% of copper and 32% of nickel.</u>

How this is calculated?

The given alloy is 100 g ,

m(Cu) = 0,7 · 100 g = 70 g.

m(Ni) = 0,3 · 100 g = 30 g.

n(Cu) = m(Cu) ÷ M(Cu) = 70 g ÷ 63,546 g/mol

n(Cu) = 1,10 mol.

n(Ni) = m(Ni) ÷ M(Ni) = 30 g ÷ 58,71 g/mol

n(Ni) = 0,51 mol

n(Cu) : n(Ni) = 1,10 mol : 0,51 mol

%(Cu) = 1,1 mol ÷ 1,61 mol = 0,68 = 68 %.

Similarly, %(Ni)=32%

What are Cu-Ni alloys?

  • Cu-Ni alloys are alloys of copper (base metal with the largest individual content) and nickel with or without other elements, whereby the zinc content may not be more than 1%.
  • When other elements are present, nickel has the largest individual content after copper, compared with each other element.
  • As with other copper alloys, it is necessary to distinguish between wrought alloys, which are processed to semi-finished products, and cast alloys, from which castings are produced by various casting processes.
