Answer:

NH3 has greater water solubility due to intermoleculate interactions

Explanation:

Hi:

If we represent the structures of NH3 and SbH3 we can see that they are similar to the naked eye, this is because N and Sb belong to the same group of the periodic table (group 15).

However, the electronegativity of N is greater than that of Sb. The NH3 molecule is polar and can form an intermolecular interaction called hydrogen bridge with water.

Sb is less electronegative than N. The SBH3 molecule forms an intermolecular interaction with water called dipole-induced dipole.

The zone with positive charge density of the water molecule (hydrogens) is oriented towards the zone with positive charge density of SBH3 (the pair of electrons not shared)

Stronger intermolecular junctions allow greater solubility of NH3 molecules.

Calculate the percent ionization of propionic acid (C2H5COOH) in solutions of each of the following concentrations (Ka is given
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

a) = 0.704%

b) = 1.30%

c) = 2.60%

Explanation:

Given that:

K_a= 1.34*10^{-5

For Part A; where Concentration of A = 0.270 M

Percentage Ionization(∝)  \alpha = \sqrt{\frac{K_a}{C} }

\alpha = \sqrt{\frac{1.34*10^{-5}}{0.270} }

\alpha = \sqrt{4.9629*10^{-5}}

\alpha = 7.044*10^{-3

percentage% (∝) = 7.044*10^{-3}*100

= 0.704%

For Part B; where Concentration of B = 7.84*10^{-2 M

\alpha = \sqrt{\frac{1.34*10^{-5}}{7.84*10^{-2}} }

\alpha = \sqrt{1.709*10^{-4} }

\alpha = 0.0130\\

percentage% (∝) = 0.0130 × 100%

= 1.30%

For Part C; where Concentration of C= 1.92*10^{-2} M

\alpha = \sqrt{\frac{1.34*10^{-5}}{1.97*10^{-2}} }

\alpha = \sqrt{6.802*10^{-4}}

\alpha =0.02608

percentage% (∝) = 0.02608  × 100%

= 2.60%

how to determine the net charge of the tripeptide Asp-Gly-Leu at pH 7. Can someone show in details and tricks on how to solve it
Ugo [173]

Answer:

0!

Explanation:

  • You need to search your pKa values for Asn (2.14, 8.75), Gly (2.35, 9.78) and Leu(2.33, 9.74), the first value corresponding to -COOH, the second to -NH3 (a third value would correspond to an R group, but in this case that does not apply), and we'll build a table to find the charges for your possible dissociated groups at indicated pH (7), we need to remember that having a pKa lower than the pH will give us a negative charge, having a pKa bigger than pH will give us a positive charge:            

           

                   -COOH         -NH3              

pH 7------------------------------------------------------              

Asn               -                      +

Gly                -                      +

Leu               -                      +

  • Now that we have our table we'll sketch our peptide's structure:

<em>HN-Asn-Gly-Leu-COOH</em>

This will allow us to see what groups will be free to react to the pH's value, and which groups are not reacting to pH because are forming the bond between amino acids. In this particular example only -NH group in Ans and -COOH in Leu are exposed to pH, we'll look for these charges in the table and add them to find the net charge:

+1 (HN-Asn)

-1 (Leu-COOH)

=0

The net charge is 0!

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

An industrial manufacturer wants to convert 175 kg of methane into HCN. Calculate the masses of ammonia and molecular oxygen req
Tema [17]
Given:

175 kilograms of Methane (CH4) to be synthesized into Hydrogen Cyanide (HCN)

The balanced chemical equation is shown below:

2 CH4<span> + 2 NH</span>3<span> + 3 O</span>2<span> → 2 HCN + 6 H</span>2<span>O
</span>
To calculate for the masses of ammonia and oxygen needed, our basis will be 175 kg CH4.

Molar mass:
CH4 = 16 kg/kmol
NH3 = 17 kg/kmol
O2 = 32 kg/kmol

mass of NH3 = 175 kg CH4 / 16 kg/kmol * (2/2) * 17 kg/kmol 
mass of NH3 = 185.94 kg NH3 needed

mass of O2 = 175 kg CH4 / 16 kg/kmol * (3/2) * 32 kg/kmol
mass of O2 = 525 kg

mass of O = 525 kg / 32 kg/kmol * (1/2) * 16 kg/kmol
mass of O = 131.25 kg O
