Answer:

a) +1

b) 0

c) -1

d) -2

Explanation:

The aspartic acid is one of the twenty amino acids that make up proteins.

The equilibrium is in the image. pka for this molecule are 1.88, 3.65 and 9.60. A higher pH than pka will have as predominant form the molecule in the right and vice versa. The net charge in each molecule is in red.

Thus, for a pH of 1.0, as the pH is lower than first pka, predominant form will have a net charge of +1. If pH is 3.0, predominant form will have a net charge of 0. If pH is 6.0 predominant form will be the -1 and for a pH of 11.0, predominant form is the -2.

I hope it helps!

How many molecules of copper sulfate are needed to produce 5.0×1024 molecules of sodium sulfate?
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

5.0 × 10²⁴ molecules

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced double displacement reaction

2 NaOH + CuSO₄ ⇒ Na₂SO₄ + Cu(OH)₂

Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 5.0 × 10²⁴ molecules of Na₂SO₄

We will use Avogadro's number: there are 6.02 × 10²³ molecules in 1 mole of molecules.

5.0 × 10²⁴ molecule × 1 mol/6.02 × 10²³ molecule = 8.3 mol

Step 3: Calculate the moles of CuSO₄ required to produce 8.3 moles of Na₂SO₄

The molar ratio of CuSO₄ to Na₂SO₄ is 1:1. The moles of CuSO₄ required are 1/1 × 8.3 mol = 8.3 mol.

Step 4: Calculate the molecules corresponding to 8.3 moles of CuSO₄

We will use Avogadro's number.

8.3 mol × 6.02 × 10²³ molecule/1 mol = 5.0 × 10²⁴ molecule

the pressure of a sample of argon gas was increased from 2.32 atm2.32 atm to 7.16 atm7.16 atm at constant temperature. if the fi
SOVA2 [1]

initial volume of the argon sample = 5.93L according to Boyle's law

What is Boyle's law ?

Boyle's law, also known as Mariotte's law, is a relationship describing how a gas will compress and expand at a constant temperature. The pressure (p) of a given quantity of gas changes inversely with its volume (v) at constant temperature, according to this empirical connection, which was established by the physicist Robert Boyle in 1662. In equation form, this means that pv = k, a constant.

According to Boyle's law

P1/V1 = P2/V2

P1 = initial pressure

P2 = final pressure

V1 =initial volume

V2= final volume

V1 = P1*V2/P2

V1 = 2.32*18.3/7.16 = 5.93L

initial volume of the argon sample = 5.93L according to Boyle's law

Four flasks are prepared, each containing 100mL of aqueous solutions of equal concentration. Which solution has the lowest freez
Jet001 [13]
The freezing point depression is a colligative property which means that it is proportional to the number of particles dissolved.

The number of particles dissolved depends on the dissociation constant of the solutes, when theyt are ionic substances.

If you have equal concentrations of two solutions on of which is of a ionic compound and the other not, then the ionic soluton will contain more particles (ions) and so its freezing point will decrease more (will be lower at end).   

In this way you can compare the freezing points of solutions of KCl, Ch3OH, Ba(OH)2, and CH3COOH, which have the same concentration.

As I explained the solution that produces more ions will exhibit the greates depression of the freezing point, leading to the lowest freezing point.

In this case, Ba(OH)2 will produce 3 iones, while KCl will produce 2, CH3OH will not dissociate into ions, and CH3COOH will have a low dissociation constant.

Answer: Then, you can predict that Ba(OH)2 solution has the lowest freezing point.
