Answer:● are parallel to the axis of helix.

●occur only near the amino and catboxyl termini of the helix.

Explanation:

Alpha helix is a common protein secondary structure unit. It is a right handed coil of amino acid residue on a polypeptide chain.It is stabilized by the formation of hydrogen bonds parallel to the axis of helix,formed between the hydrogen of amino and oxygen of carbonyl group of every fourth peptide bonds.

Convert 4.5 X 1022 molecules of H2O to moles.

noname [10]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 0.075 moles</h3>

Explanation:

To find the number of moles in a substance given it's number of entities we use the formula

$n = \frac{N}{L} \\$

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities

From the question we have

$n = \frac{4.5 \times {10}^{22} }{6.02 \times {10}^{23} } \\ = 0.074750830...$

We have the final answer as

<h3>0.075 moles</h3>

Using the following reaction:

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

Mn is the oxidizing agent.

N is the reducing agent.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, according to the undergoing chemical reaction, it is seen that the manganese in KMnO4 has an oxidation state of 7+, in MnSO4 of 2+ and nitrogen in KNO2 is 3+ and in KNO3 is 5+; thus we have the following half-reactions:

$Mn^{7+}+5e^-\rightarrow Mn^{2+}\\\\N^{3+}\rightarrow N^{5+}+2e^-$

Thus, since manganese is undergoing a decrease in the oxidation state, we infer it is the oxidizing agent whereas nitrogen, undergoing an increase in the oxidation state is the reducing agent.

Best regards!

2. To what volume will you have to dilute 20.0 ml of a 8 M HCl solution to make a 0.35 M

GrogVix [38]

Answer:

You need to dilute 8 M HCl to 0.35 M to make 457 mL.

Explanation:

Use the equation M₁V₁=M₂V₂

Convert the mL to L : 20 mL= 0.02 L

8 M x 0.02 L = 0.35 M x V₂

V₂ = 0.4571429 L = 457 mL

If a car can go from 0 to 60 mi/hr in 8.0 seconds, what would be its final speed after 5.0 seconds if its starting speed were 50

tangare [24]

Answer:

87.5 mi/hr

Explanation:

Because a = Δv / Δt (a = vf - vi/ Δt), we need to find the acceleration first to know the change in velocity so we can determine the final velocity.

vf = 60 mi/hr

vi = 0 mi/hr

Δt = 8 secs

a = vf - vi/ Δt

= 60 mi/hr - 0 mi/hr/ 8 secs

= 60 mi/hr / 8 secs

= 7.5 mi/hr^2

Now that we know the acceleration of the car is 7. 5 mi/hr^2, we can substitute it in the acceleration formula to find the final velocity when the initial velocity is 50 mi/hr after 5 secs.

vi = 50 mi/ hr

Δt = 5 secs

a = 7.5 mi/ hr^2

a = vf - vi/ Δt

7.5 = vf - 50 mi/hr / 5 secs

37.5 = vf - 50

87.5 mi/ hr = vf
