When a polypeptide is in its native conformation,there are weak interactions between its R groups. However, when it is denatured

there are similar interactions between the protein groups and water.What then accounts for the greater stability of the native conformation?

Answer:

In the unfolded polypeptide, there are ordered solvation shells of water around the protein

groups. The number of water molecules involved in such ordered shells is reduced when the protein

folds, resulting in higher entropy. Hence, the lower free energy of the native conformation.

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

2.41065 grams

Explanation:

Here we have to apply molarity, particularly in reference to the equation molarity = moles of solute / volume. I would like to rewrite this formula, but with respect to the units - grams = moles / Liters,

We can use molarity to determine the number of moles. After doing so, we can determine the mass of the solute with respect to the formula moles = mass / molar mass. The molar mass of NaCl is 58.44 grams.

_______________________________________________________

275 mL = 0.275 L,

Number of Moles of NaCl = 0.150 * 0.275 = 0.04125 moles,

Mass = 0.04125 * 58.44 = 2.41065 grams,

Solution - Mass of NaCl = 2.41065 grams

The critical point of carbon dioxide is 304 k and 73 atm. under which conditions is carbon dioxide a liquid? i. 303 k and 73 atm
Sergeeva-Olga [200]
Answer is: a) I only.
Above critical temperature of CO₂, a gas cannot be liquefied no matter how much pressure is applied. Temperature and pressure above its critical point is called supercritical fluid and this is <span>intermediate between gaseous and liquid states.</span>

2. A 90 g bag of trail mix is contains 22% nuts, 35% granola, 18% dried fruit. The rest is chocolate chips.
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]
There are:

19.8g of nuts (90x0.22=19.8)
31.5g of granola (90x0.35=31.5)
16.2g of dried fruit (90x0.18=16.2)
22.5g of chocolate chips (90x0.25=22.5)

How are coefficients used to balance chemical equations?
Zepler [3.9K]
According to the law of conservation of mass, the quantity of the elements, involved in chemical reactions does not change. For example,
H2O2 - > H2O + O2
is wrong, because there are two O atoms on the first side of the equation, and three on the other. To correct it, coefficients must be added, until the amount of both H and O atoms is equal on both sides.
2H2O2 - > 2H2O + O2
