Answer:

Explanation:

  • from the Radioactive decay equation ; lnA = ln Ao - kt
  • Ao = original amount of substance = 74mg
  • where A = is the amount of the substance remaining after time t = 32.7mg,
  • k = is a constant that is characteristic of the substance = 2.67 x 10^-1 years^-1
  • t = ?

All radioactive substances follow the first order kinetics, as such the rate constant for first order is given as , k = 1/t ln[Ao/A]

  • hence t = 1/k ln[Ao/A]
  • plugging the values in the equation;
  • t = 1/0.267 x ln [74/32.7]
  • t = 3.745 ln(2.2629)
  • t = 3.05years is the time needed

Indicate which of the amino acid residues in the following peptide sequence contains a group that has a negative charge for its
Travka [436]

Answer:

<h2>None</h2>

Explanation:

In the given sequence there is 9 amino acid in which 2 are positively charged amino acid and 7 are neutral amino acid at physiological pH . In each amino amino acid two oppositely charged amino and carboxyl group is present ,where amino is positively charged and proton acceptor and carboxyl is negatively charged and proton donor at physiological pH . pH below neutral cause addition of proton in amino group and makes amino acid positively charged , while pH above neutral cause addition of hydroxide ion in carboxylic group and makes amino acid negatively charged . At pH-4 , all amino acid in the given sequence become positively charge due to addition of proton in the solution ,these protons in the solution binds to amino acid sequence, hence there is no negative charged amino acid in the sequence .

Answer:

p = 0.25 g/cm3

Hope this Helps!!

xXxAnimexXx

The formula for density is the mass of an object divided by its volume. In equation form, that's d = m/v , where d is the density, m is the mass and v is the volume of the object. The standard units are kg/m³.

If 50g copper oxide is added to 0.5mol sulphuric acid, calculate the unreacted copper oxide​
Scilla [17]

Answer: 10.3 grams of Copper oxide is left unreacted.

Explanation:

To calculate the moles :

\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}    

\text{Moles of} CuO=\frac{50g}{79.5g}=0.63moles

The balanced chemical reaction is:

CuO+H_2SO_4\rightarrow CuSO_4+H_2O  

According to stoichiometry :

1 moles of H_2SO_4 require = 1 mole of CuO

Thus 0.5 moles of H_2SO_4 will require=\frac{1}{1}\times 0.5=0.5moles  of CuO

Thus H_2SO_4 is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product and CuO is the excess reagent.

moles of CuO left = (0.63-0.5) mol= 0.13 mol

Mass of CuO left =moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=0.13moles\times 79.5g/mol=10.3g

10.3 grams of Copper oxide is left unreacted.

1. Explain why halogens are rarely found in native state?​
tigry1 [53]

Halogens are rarely found in native state because halogens are highly reactive.  

<h3>What is Halogens ?</h3>

The group 17 elements are known as Halogen group. These elements include Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, Iodine and Astatine. Halogens react with metals to form salts. Halogens are non metals. Halogens are highly reactive and halogens are never found in pure form. Halogens not occur in free state.

<h3>How many valence electron are present in Halogens ?</h3>

Halogens have seven valence electrons in the outermost shell. The electronic configuration of Halogen is ns² np⁵.

Thus from the above conclusion we can say that Halogens are rarely found in native state because halogens are highly reactive.

What volume, in milliliters, of 2.0 calcium chloride stock solution would you use to make 500 ml of 0.300 m of calcium chloride
mash [69]
We can use the following formula when making diluted solutions from more concentrated solutions.
c1v1 = c2v2 
where c1 is the concentration and v1 is the volume of the concentrated solution 
and c2 is concentration and v2 is volume of the diluted solution to be prepared 

substituting these values in the equation 
2.0 M x V = 0.300 M x 500 mL 
V = 75 mL

75 mL should be taken from the stock solution and diluted upto 500 mL to make the 0.300 M solution
