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!

Analyze: The metallic character of an element is determined by how readily it loses electrons. Elements that lose electrons most
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Group 1 or akali metals have the greatest metallic property.

Group 17 has the lowest metallic character.

C. As you move from right to lefton the periodic table, metallic character increases which is the ability to lose electrons. Ionization energy decrease as we move from right to left on the periodic table.

Explanation:

Akali metals in group 1 have the greatest metallic property and they are the most reactive metals. Francium metal on the group has the most metallic characteristics. It is rare and very radioactive. Group 17 has the lowest metallic character. This is because while moving across the period, the number of electrons in the outermost shell increases. This make it difficult for atoms to leave see electrons and become electropositive . Group 17 has the highest tendency of accepting electrons.

Ionization energy is the energy use to remove electron from an atom in gaseous stage. Ionization energy decrease as we move from right to left on the periodic table and metallic character increases as we move from right to left on the periodic table.

During fusion _____. hydrogen atoms are split apart U-235 atoms are created helium atoms are created uranium atoms are fused tog
musickatia [10]
The correct answer is the second option. During fusion, uranium atoms are fused together. Fusion reaction happens when two or more nuclei combine or collide to form an element with a higher atomic number. In this process, some of the matter of the fusing nuclei is converted to energy.

A 2.50 g sample of solid sodium hydroxide is added to 55.0 mL of 25 °C water in a foam cup (insulated from the environment) and
zlopas [31]

Answer:

37.1°C.

Explanation:

  • Firstly, we need to calculate the amount of heat (Q) released through this reaction:

<em>∵ ΔHsoln = Q/n</em>

no. of moles (n) of NaOH = mass/molar mass = (2.5 g)/(40 g/mol) = 0.0625 mol.

<em>The negative sign of ΔHsoln indicates that the reaction is exothermic.</em>

∴ Q = (n)(ΔHsoln) = (0.0625 mol)(44.51 kJ/mol) = 2.78 kJ.

  • We can use the relation:

Q = m.c.ΔT,

where, Q is the amount of heat released to water (Q = 2781.87 J).

m is the mass of water (m = 55.0 g, suppose density of water = 1.0 g/mL).

c is the specific heat capacity of water (c = 4.18 J/g.°C).

ΔT is the difference in T (ΔT = final temperature - initial temperature = final temperature - 25°C).

∴ (2781.87 J) = (55.0 g)(4.18 J/g.°C)(final temperature - 25°C)

∴ (final temperature - 25°C) = (2781.87 J)/(55.0 g)(4.18 J/g.°C) = 12.1.

<em>∴ final temperature = 25°C + 12.1 = 37.1°C.</em>

Can any of you guys help me with this. Can y’all give me some facts about nucleus protons netrons and electrons :)
Mumz [18]

Answer:

the nucleus is the center of the atom, made up of protons and neutrons, without the nucleus you'd just have a bunch of electrons floating around; the nucleus is positively charged

protons are the positively charged particles that sit within the nucleus

neutrons are particles of no charge that sit within the nucleus, and because they have no charge, they do not cancel out the positive charge of the protons, making the nucleus positive

electrons are negatively charged particles that float around the nucleus in an area known as the electron cloud, they orbit around the nucleus because they are attracted to the positive charge of the nucleus (caused by the protons), with charges, opposites attract
