Answer:
Trial Number of moles
1 0.001249mol
2 0.001232mol
3 0.001187 mol
Explanation:
To calculate the <em>number of moles of tritant</em> you need its<em> molarity</em>.
Since the<em> molarity</em> is not reported, I will use 0.1000M (four significant figures), which is used in other similar problems.
<em>Molarity</em> is the concentration of the solution in number of moles of solute per liter of solution.
In this case the solute is <em>NaOH</em>.
The formula is:
Solve for the <em>number of moles:</em>
Then, using the molarity of 0.1000M and the volumes for each trial you can calculate the number of moles of tritant.
Trial mL liters Number of moles
1 12.49 0.01249 0.01249liters × 0.1000M = 0.001249mol
2 12.32 0.01232 0.01232liters × 0.1000M = 0.001232mol
3 11.87 0.01187 0.01187liters × 0.1000M = 0.001187 mol
Answer:
Hydrolysis
Explanation:
The phosphate groups in an ATP molecule are joined forming an ester group. Esters can be formed when an alcohol (-OH) bonds with an acid (-COOH, or, in the case of phosphoric acid, ). When this bonding occurs, the two molecules together lose a molecule of water, because the alcohol loses the hydroxyl and the acid loses an hydrogen, and the three atoms combine to form water. All the chemical bonds that are formed with the loss of a water molecule can also be broken using water, and this reaction is called hydrolysis.
