What are the differences between cholesterol and ergosterole?​

Chemistry

The difference between ergosterol and cholesterol is much more obvious in their interactions with POPC and DOPC. Whereas cholesterol induces a strong condensing effect that thickens both POPC and DOPC bilayers, ergosterol shows no condensing effect in POPC and DOPC at all.

A water solution is found to have a molar oh- concentration of 3.2 x 10-5. the solution would be classified as :_______.
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

A water solution is found to have a molar oh- concentration of 3.2 x 10-5. the solution would be classified as neutral.

The concentration of hydroxide ions (OH-) is measured by pOH. It is a way of expressing how alkaline a solution is. At 25 degrees Celsius, aqueous solutions with pOH values of 7 or less are neutral, whereas those with pOH values of 7 or more are acidic. The hydrogen ion potential is known as pH. The potential of hydroxide ions is known as pOH. 2. It is a scale used to estimate the hydrogen ion (H+) concentration in the solution. The hydroxide ion (OH-) concentration of the solution is measured using this scale.

pH + pOH = 14

 pOH = 3.2x 10-5

[OH-] = 10^(-pOH) =10^(- 3.2x 10-5)

= 0.99

Given these reactions, X ( s ) + 1 2 O 2 ( g ) ⟶ XO ( s ) Δ H = − 668.5 k J / m o l XCO 3 ( s ) ⟶ XO ( s ) + CO 2 ( g ) Δ H = +
qwelly [4]

<u>Answer:</u> The \Delta H^o_{rxn} for the reaction is -1052.8 kJ.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Hess’s law of constant heat summation states that the amount of heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation remains the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps.

According to this law, the chemical equation is treated as ordinary algebraic expressions and can be added or subtracted to yield the required equation. This means that the enthalpy change of the overall reaction is equal to the sum of the enthalpy changes of the intermediate reactions.

The given chemical reaction follows:

X(s)+\frac{1}{2}O_2(g)+CO_2(g)\rightarrow XCO_3(s)      \Delta H^o_{rxn}=?

The intermediate balanced chemical reaction are:

(1) X(s)+\frac{1}{2}O_2(g)\rightarrow XO(s)    \Delta H_1=-668.5kJ

(2) XCO_3(s)\rightarrow XO(s)+CO_2     \Delta H_2=+384.3kJ

The expression for enthalpy of the reaction follows:

\Delta H^o_{rxn}=[1\times \Delta H_1]+[1\times (-\Delta H_2)]

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\Delta H^o_{rxn}=[(1\times (-668.5))+(1\times (-384.3))=-1052.8kJ

Hence, the \Delta H^o_{rxn} for the reaction is -1052.8 kJ.

Prove that PV = nRT.​
qaws [65]

Find your answer in the explanation below.

Explanation:

PV = nRT is called the ideal gas equation and its a combination of 3 laws; Charles' law, Boyle's law and Avogadro's law.

According to Boyle's law, at constant temperature, the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to the pressure. i.e V = 1/P

From, Charles' law, we have that volume is directly proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas at constant pressure. i.e V = T

Avogadro's law finally states that equal volume of all gases at the same temperature and pressure contain the same number of molecules. i.e V = n

Combining the 3 Laws together i.e equating volume in all 3 laws, we have

V = nT/P,

V = constant nT/P

(constant = general gas constant = R)

V = RnT/P

by bringing P to the LHS, we have,

PV = nRT.
