. In your lab you are studying aspirin, and its acid/base properties. You find that a 1.00 L of a 0.500 M solution of aspirin ha

s a pH of 1.86. You are interested in learning about the % dissociation in a buffered solution of aspirin, so you make a new 1.00 L solution containing 0.500 moles of aspirin and 0.25 moles of the sodium salt of aspirin. What will the % dissociation be in this new buffered solution?

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

Initial volume of aspirin = 1.00 L

Initial concentration of aspirin = 0.500 M

Initial pH = 1.86

Hence, hydronium ion concentration will be calculated as follows.

               pH = -log[H^{+}]

or,              [H^{+}] = 10^{-pH}

                               = 10^{-1.86}

                                = 13.8 \times 10^{-3} M

As, buffer containing aspirin and its conjugate base is formed in 1 L solution.

Hence, moles of aspirin are 0.500 moles and moles of the conjugate base are 0.25 moles.

So, upon dissociation the concentration of acetylsalicylate ion and hydronium ion are the same.

Hence, pK_{a} value will be calculated as follows.

             K_{a} = \frac{[H^{+}]^{2}}{[Aspirin]}

                           = \frac{[13.8 \times 10^{-3}]^{2}}{0.50}

                           = 3.8 \times 10^{-4}

Also,       pK_{a} = -log [K_{a}]

                          = -log [3.8 \times 10^{-4}]

                           = 3.41

Now, using Henderson-Hasselbalch equation we determine the pH as follows.

      pH = pK_{a} + log \frac{[CH_{3}COO^{-}]}{[Aspirin]}

            = 3.41 + log \frac{[0.25]}{[0.5]}

            = 3.11

Determine the hydronium ion concentration of buffer as follows.

          [H^{+}] = 10^{-pH}

                            = 10^{-3.11}

                            = 7.76 \times 10^{-4} M

Therefore, we calculate the recent dissociation as follows.

          % dissociation = \frac{\text{Amount dissociated}}{\text{Initial concentration}} \times 100%

                                   = \frac{0.000776}{0.50 M} \times 100%

                                   = 1.5 \times 10^{-3} × 100

                                   = 0.15%

Thus, we can conclude that the value of % dissociation of new buffered solution is 0.15%.

Codons.
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

1. C- Three.

2. A- Methionine

3. D- Translocation.

4. C- OH.

5. A - 5'

6. A - 3' carbon

7. A. adenine and guanine

Explanation:

1. A codon is a group of three nucleotide sequence that encodes or specifies an amino acid. This means that, during translation (second stage of gene expression), when a CODON is read, an amino acid is added to the growing peptide chain.

2. The codon that initiates the translation process is called a start codon. It has a sequence: AUG and it specifies Methionine amino acid. Hence, during translation where a tRNA binds to the mRNA codon to read it and add its corresponding amino acid, a tRNA with a complementary sequence of AUG (start codon) binds to it and carries Methionine amino acid.

3. Translocation is a process during translation whereby the mRNA-tRNA moeity moves forward in the ribosome to allow another codon to move into the vacant site for translation process to continue.

4. The sugar component of a nucelotide that makes up the nucleic acid (DNA or RNA) i.e. ribose or deoxyribose, contains an hydroxyll functional group (-OH).

5. A nucleotide consists of a pentose (five carbon) sugar, phosphate group and a nitrogenous base. The phosphate group (PO43-) is attached to the 5' carbon of the sugar molecule.

6. The free hydroxyll group (-OH) of the five carbon sugar molecule in DNA is attached to its 3' carbon.

7. Nitrogenous bases are the third component of a nucleotide, the other two being pentose sugar and phosphate group. The nitrogenous bases are four viz: Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine, and Thymine. These bases are classified into Purines and Pyrimidines based on the similarity in their structure. Adenine (A) and Guanine (G) are Purines because they possess have two carbon-nitrogen rings, as opposed to one possessed by Pyrimidines (Thymine and Cytosine).

1. Which of the following indicates the number of protons?
Leokris [45]

Answer:

a)Atomic number

Explanation:

Element symbol signifies the element. For eg, Na is sodium. Mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons of an atom of an element. Atomic mass is the molar mass of the given element. Finally, atomic number is unique to each element because it signifies the number of protons of that element. EACH ELEMENT has their UNIQUE number of protons. For eg, atomic number of hydrogen is 1 because it has 1 proton, NO OTHER ELEMENT HAS ATOMIC NUMBER 1 because NO OTHER ELEMENT HAS 1 proton.

4 Al + 3 O2 --> 2 Al2O3
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 7.4 moles of Aluminum

Explanation:

Data

moles of Al = ?

moles of Al₂O₃ = 3.7

Balanced chemical reaction

                4 Al  +  3 O₂  ⇒  2 Al₂O₃

To solve this problem use proportions and cross multiplication. Use the coefficients of the balanced chemical equation.

                4 moles of Aluminum ----------------- 2 moles of Al₂O₃

                 x                                  ----------------- 3.7 moles of Al₂O₃

                            x = (3.7 x 4) / 2

                            x = 14.8 / 2

                            x = 7.4 moles of Aluminum
