Answer:

See image below

Explanation:

The image is labeled according to the sequence N'-Trp-Ser-Asg-Gly-Cys-His-COOH' which means that in the main chain of the peptide, the amino group of the Tryptophan and the carboxylic group of the Histidine are free and thus its charge depends on the pH; other groups that rely on the pH are the side groups of the Cysteine and the Histidine.

Overall, ionizable groups in this peptide are:

Amino Group of the Tryptophan (pKa = 9.39)

SH group of the Cysteine (pKa = 8.18)

Secondary amine of the Histidine (pKa = 6.00)

Carboxylic Group of the Histidine (pKa = 1.82)

Then, the amino group of Trp and SH group of Cys are protonated since the peptide is at a pH below the pKa. The secondary amine of the Histidine is deprotonated because the pH is greater than the pKa, as well with its carboxylic acid group.

Greenhouse gases act to __________ temperatures by __________ thermal infrared radiation. Group of answer choices increase; refl

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Greenhouse gases act to increase temperatures by absorbing thermal infrared radiation.

We have already learned that Earth's atmosphere is composed often of nitrogen and oxygen. Those gases are transparent to incoming solar radiation. they may be also transparent to outgoing infrared radiation, which means that they do not take in or emit sun or infrared radiation.

The multiplied quantities of greenhouse gases human sports are adding to the environment have dissatisfied the balance that has been in location for the reason that ceases of the closing ice age, including greater greenhouse gases decreases the amount of infrared radiation energy leaving the atmosphere.

Greenhouse gases inside the ecosystem time and again absorb and re-radiate infrared radiation (warmth). strength radiated from Earth's surface as warmth, or infrared radiation is absorbed and re-radiated by using greenhouse gases, impeding the loss of warmth from our surroundings to area.

One of the compounds used to increase the octane rating of gasoline is toluene (pictured). Suppose 43.3 mL of toluene (d = 0.867

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

(A)

Density = Mass / Volume

Mass = Density × Volume

$= 0.867 g/mL \times 43.3mL = 37.5411 g Toluene$

$1C_6 H_5 CH_3 + 9 O_2 > 7 CO_2 + 4 H_2 O$

Mole ratio of toluene : Oxygen is 1 : 9

$37.5411 g \text { Toluene } \times \frac{1 \text {mol} \text {toluene}}{92 g \text { toluene}} \times \frac{9 {mol} O_{2}}{1 \text {mol} \text { toluene }} \times \frac{32 g O_{2}}{1 {mol} O_{2}}=117 g O_{2}(\text {Answer})$

(B)

1 mole of Toluene produces 7 moles of $CO_2$ gas and 4 moles of $H_2 O$ Vapour

So the mole ratio is 1 : 11

$37.5411 g Toluene $\times \frac{1 \text { mol toluene }}{92 g \text { toluene }} \times \frac{11 \mathrm{mol} \text { gas }}{1 \text { mol toluene }} $$\\\\=4.49 \text { mol gaseous products (Answer) } $$

(C)

1mole contains $6.022\times10^{23}$ molecules

$37.5411 g Toluene $\times \frac{1 \text { mol toluene }}{92 g \text { toluene}} \times \frac{4 \mathrm{mol} \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}}{1 \mathrm{mol} \text { toluene }} \times \frac{6.022 \times 10^{23} \text { molecules } \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}}{1 \mathrm{mol} \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}} $\\\\$=9.82 \times 10^{23} \text { molecules } \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O} \text { (Answer) } $$

How does geothermal energy differ from solar energy?

Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

Whereas solar energy makes use of the sun to generate energy, geothermal energy makes use of the heat that is trapped deep in the center of the earth. The magma buried deep down of our soil is as hot as the sun’s surface, and some of that heat manages to escape outward. When that happens, we can harness that said heat for energy.
