Answer:

324.18 g/mol

Explanation:

Let the molecular mass of the antimalarial drug, Quinine is x g/mol

According to question,

Nitrogen present in the drug is 8.63% of x

So, mass of nitrogen = \frac {8.63}{100}\times x

Also, according to the question,

2 atoms are present in 1 molecule of the drug.

Mass of nitrogen = 14.01 amu = 14.01 g/mol (grams for 1 mole)

So, mass of nitrogen = 14.01×2 = 28.02

These 2 must be equal so,

\frac {8.63}{100}\times x=28.02

solving for x, we get:

<u>x = 324.18 g/mol</u>

How many moles are in 9.12 x 1023 molecules of sugar?​
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

1.514 moles

Explanation:

For this problem you want to use dimensional analysis and cancel out your molecules of sugar and be left with moles of sugar. We know that 1 mole (of anything) = 6.022 x 10 ^ 23 molecules, so we should use that conversion to help us. Start with 9.12 x 10 ^23 molecules and divide by 6.022 x 10 ^ 23 molecules, and you will be left with moles.

Hope this helps!

Which group of extremophiles does thermus aquaticus belong to
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

The correct answer is thermophiles.

Explanation:

Thermus aquaticus are heat resistant bacteria because these bacteria can survive under adverse environmental conditions like high temperature.

These bacteria belong to one of the most heat-loving groups of extremophiles that are thermophiles. Thermophiles are present in volcanic soil, geysers and around deep-sea vents where the temperature is extremely high.

Thermus aquaticus bacteria is used to manufacture an enzyme called Taq DNA polymerase, which is heat resistant and also an important factor in molecular biology.
