What is the net charge of the peptide arg-ala-phe-leu at ph 8?

Chemistry

The structure of this oligopeptide is attached:

It consists of arginine - alanine - phenylalanine and leucine

From the picture we can see that N terminus charge is +1
Also Arginine is considered as basic amino acid with charge +1
C terminus charge is -1

At pH = 8, the whose pKa are less than pH will be deprotonated and the net charge will be +1 

So the net charge of this oligopeptide is +1 at pH = 8

At 25 °C, only 0.0990 mol of the generic salt AB3 is soluble in 1.00 L of water. What is the Ksp of the salt at 25 °C? AB3(s)↽−−
maksim [4K]

Answer:

Ksp=2.59x10^{-3}

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, given the 0.0990 moles of the salt are soluble in 1.00 L of water only, we can infer that the molar solubility is 0.099 M. Next, since the dissociation of the salt is:

AB_3\rightleftharpoons A^{3+}+3B^-

The concentrations of the A and B ions in the solution are:

[A]=0.099 \frac{molAB_3}{L}*\frac{1molA}{1molAB_3}  =0.0099M

[B]=0.099 \frac{molAB_3}{L}*\frac{3molB}{1molAB_3}  =0.000.297M

Then, as the solubility product is defined as:

Ksp=[A][B]^3

Due to the given dissociation, it turns out:

Ksp=[0.099M][0.297M]^3\\\\Ksp=2.59x10^{-3}

Regards.

A particular flask has a mass of 17.4916 g when empty. When filled with ordinary water at 20.0°c (density = 0.9982 g/ml), the ma
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

The mass of the empty flask is 17.4916 g. Now after feeling the ordinary water the mass of the flask is 43.9616 g. Thus the change of weight due to addition of ordinary water is (43.9616 - 17.4916) = 26.47 g.

Now as the density of the ordinary water at 20°C is 0.9982 g/ml, so 26.47 g is equivalent to \frac{26.47}{0.9982}=26.5177 mL of water. Thus the capacity of the flask is 26.5177 mL.

Now the density of heavy water is 1.1053 g/mL at 20°C. Thus 26.5177 mL of heavy water is equivalent to (1.1053×26.5177) = 29.310 g.

Thus the total weight of the flask filled with heavy water will be (17.4916 + 29.310) = 46.8016 g at 20°C.

Where does oxidation occur in an electrochemical cell?
AlladinOne [14]
Option No. 1 at the cathode in both an electrolytic cell and a voltaic cell

Negative ion arrives at the anode, attracted by electrostatic forces, where they lose electrons. Loss of electrons is defined as oxidation.

The reverse process occur at the negative electrode, where positive ions pick up electrons. They are reduced.
