c. Isoleucine has a carbon “branched” closer to the alpha carbon than does leucine.
The structure of leucine is CH3CH(<u>CH3</u>)CH2CH(NH2)COOH.
The structure of isoleucine is CH3CH2CH(<u>CH3</u>)CH(NH2)COOH.
In leucine, the CH3 group is <em>two carbons away</em> <em>from</em> the α carbon; in isoleucine, the CH3 group is on the carbon <em>next to</em> the α carbon.
Thus, <em>isoleucine</em> has the closer branched carbon.
“One is charged, the other is not” is i<em>ncorrect</em>. Both compounds are uncharged.
“One has more H-bond acceptors than the other” is <em>incorrect</em>. Each acid has two H-bond acceptors — the N in the amino and the O in the carbonyl group.
“They have different numbers of carbon atoms” is <em>incorrec</em>t. They each contain six carbon atoms.
Independent Variable: a variable that you can change in an experiment
Dependent Variable: something that changes as you change the independent variable
control variable: something that is not changed throughout the experiment
Answer:
The number of moles of xenon are 1.69 mol.
Explanation:
Given data:
Number of moles of xenon = ?
Volume of gas = 37.8 L
Temperature = 273 K
Pressure = 1 atm
Solution:
The given problem will be solve by using general gas equation,
PV = nRT
P= Pressure
V = volume
n = number of moles
R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K
T = temperature in kelvin
Now we will put the values in formula.
1 atm × 37.8 L = n × 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K ×273 K
37.8 atm.L = n × 22.413 atm.L/ mol.
n = 37.8 atm.L / 22.413 atm.L/ mol.
n = 1.69 mol
The number of moles of xenon are 1.69.
