The molecular mass of the compound is 132 amu What is molecular formula?

1 answer:

3 0

I am assuming that this compound contains carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. The molar mass of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen is 12, 1 and 16 grams/mol. Given these molar mass we now need to know the number of C H and O in the compound. To have 132 the compound must be C6H12O3

Answer:

The $K_{m}$ of a substrate will be "10 μM".

Explanation:

The given values are:

$E_{t} = 20 \ nM$

$[Substract] = 40 \ \mu M$

$K_{cat}=600 \ s^{-1}$

Reaction velocity, $Vo=9.6 \ \mu M s^{-1}$

As we know,

⇒ $Vo=\frac{K_{cat}[E_{t}][S]}{K_{m}+[S]}$

On putting the estimated values, we get

⇒ $9.6=\frac{600\times 20\times 10^{-3}\times 40}{K_{m}+40}$

⇒ $K_{m}+40=\frac{600\times 20\times 10^{-3}\times 40}{9.6}$

⇒ $K_{m}+40=50$

On subtracting "40" from both sides, we get

⇒ $K_{m}+40-40=50-40$

⇒ $K_{m}=10 \ \mu M$

marshall27 [118]

Answer:

191.6 g of CaCl₂.

Explanation:

What is given?

Mass of HCl = 125.9 g.

Molar mass of CaCl₂ = 110.8 g/mol.

Molar mass of HCl = 36.4 g/mol.

Step-by-step solution:

First, we have to state the chemical equation. Ca(OH)₂ react with HCl to produce CaCl₂:

$Ca(OH)_2+2HCl\rightarrow CaCl_2+2H_2O.$

Now, let's convert 125.9 g of HCl to moles using the given molar mass (remember that the molar mass of a compound can be found using the periodic table). The conversion will look like this:

$125.9\text{ g HCl}\cdot\frac{1\text{ mol HCl}}{36.4\text{ g HCl}}=3.459\text{ moles HCl.}$

Let's find how many moles of CaCl₂ are being produced by 3.459 moles of HCl. You can see in the chemical equation that 2 moles of HCl reacted with excess Ca(OH)₂ produces 1 mol of CaCl₂, so we state a rule of three and the calculation is:
