In a typical analysis, 15 ml of an aqueous solution containing an unknown amount of acetylcholine had a ph of 7.65. When incubat

ed with acetylcholinesterase, the ph of the solution decreased to 6.87. Assuming there was no buffer in the assay mixture, determine the number of moles of acetylcholine in the 15 ml sample.

pH of the acetyl choline solution before incubation = 7.65

[H_{3}O^{+}]=10^{-7.65}=2.24*10^{-8}M

pH of the solution after incubation = 6.87

[H_{3}O^{+}]=10^{-6.87}=1.35*10^{-7}M

The difference in concentration of hydronium ion before and after incubation

=1.35*10^{-7}M-2.24*10^{-8}M=1.126*10^{-7}M

This difference in hydronium ion concentration can be attributed to the increase in the concentration of acetic acid, which is formed when acetylcholine is hydrolyzed by acetycholinesterase. The mole ratio of acetylcholine to acetic acid is 1:1.

Therefore the moles of acetylcholine = 15 mL * \frac{1L}{1000mL}*\frac{1.126*10^{-7}mol }{L}=1.689*10^{-9}mol

Atoms are composed of a central nucleus which is surrounded by orbiting
ad-work [718]

Answer:

            Atoms are composed of a central nucleus which is surrounded by orbiting <u>Electrons</u>.

Explanation:

                   The word Atom is derived from atomos meaning indivisible particle. An atom is a very small sized particle and its size is approximately 100 picometers.

                    Atoms are composed of a Nucleus which contains protons and neutrons and the nucleus is surrounded by orbiting electrons. Also, the nucleus is positively charged due to +ve protons and the electrons revolving around nucleus are -vely charged making overall atom neutral in nature.

                   Atoms react with another atoms due to the presence of valence electrons present in the valence shell of an atom. The valence electrons would make a covalent bond by mutually sharing the electrons or it may form an ionic bond by gaining and loosing valence electron.

Which of these oxides will likely form a colored solution when dissolved in water?
Alik [6]

Mn₂O

Explanation:

The oxide that will most likely form colored solutions is Mn₂O.

This is because most transition metals form colored compounds. Manganese is a transition metal belonging to the d-block on the periodic table.

  • Other examples of transition metals are scandium, titanium, iron, copper, cobalt, nickel, zinc
  • They belong to the d-block on the periodic table.
  • They have variable oxidation states.
  • Most of their solutions are always colored.

What was a key discovery in the advancement me up early information transfer
Llana [10]

Answer:

The transfer was essential to understand the mutation and the possibility of new, more resistant strains in microorganisms.

Explanation:

the transfer of microorganisms is based on the transfer of genetic data through conductive pathways that penetrate the membranes, called pili or genetic bridges.

These mutated genes with higher resistance are transmitted and resistance is generated in entire populations and even species.
