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

Which phrase best discribes wave motion
kap26 [50]

Answer:

propagation of disturbances—that is, deviations from a state of rest or equilibrium—from place to place in a regular and organized way. Most familiar are surface waves on water, but both sound and light travel as wavelike disturbances, and the motion of all subatomic particles exhibits wavelike properties.

a sample of a compound contains 60gC and 5.05gH.it molar mass is 78.12g/mol what is the compound molecular formula
elena55 [62]
(60)/(60+5.05)=.922367 C
1-0.922367=0.07763259 H
(0.922367)(78.12)=72.05534204 C
(0.07763259)(78.12)=6.06 H
72.05534204/(12.01)=6 C
6.06/1.01=6 H
Empirical= CH
Molecular=C6H6
