A solution of 0.207 M aspartic acid, the charge neutral form of the amino acid, is titrated with 0.0690 M NaOH . The pKa values

for aspartic acid are 1.990 , 3.900 , and 10.002 , corresponding to the α-carboxylic acid group, the β-carboxylic acid group, and the amino group, respectively. Calculate the pH at the first equivalence point of this titration.

Answer:

pH = 6,951

Explanation:

The neutral form of aspartic acid is in its isolectric point. For aspartic acid the isoelectric point is the average of pka1 and pka2, thus:

pH =\frac{1}{2} (3,900+1,990)= 2,945

The addition of stoichiometric amounts of NaOH at the first equivalence point will increase the pH at average of pka2 and pka3 thus:

pH = \frac{1}{2} (3,900+10,002)= 6,951

Thus, <em>pH at the first equivalence point is 6,951</em>

I hope it helps!

Suppose you will fill a glass with ice cubes. When the ice cubes melt, is the glass still full
goblinko [34]
No. It will not still be full. The reason being is because when it melts, it's almost the same thing as compacting things down into another object (container). Therefore, you will have some room left i the glass. Like, if your trashcan was over-flowing, and you push it down to compact it so you can add more trash. So when the ice melts, it will not be full.

Burning 12.00 g of an oxoacid produces 17.95 g of carbon dioxide and 4.87 g of water. Consider that 0.25
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer: The molecular formula will be C_6H_6O_6

Explanation:

Mass of CO_2 = 17.95 g

Mass of H_2O= 4.87 g

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

For calculating the mass of carbon:

In 44g of carbon dioxide, 12 g of carbon is contained.

So, in 17.95 g of carbon dioxide, =\frac{12}{44}\times 17.95=4.89g of carbon will be contained.

For calculating the mass of hydrogen:

In 18g of water, 2 g of hydrogen is contained.

So, in 4.87 g of water, =\frac{2}{18}\times 4.87=0.541g of hydrogen will be contained.

Mass of oxygen in the compound = (12.00) - (4.89+0.541) = 6.57 g

Mass of C = 4.89 g

Mass of H =  0.541 g

Mass of O = 6.57 g

Step 1 : convert given masses into moles.

Moles of C =\frac{\text{ given mass of C}}{\text{ molar mass of C}}= \frac{4.89g}{12g/mole}=0.407moles

Moles of H=\frac{\text{ given mass of H}}{\text{ molar mass of H}}= \frac{0.541g}{1g/mole}=0.541moles

Moles of O=\frac{\text{ given mass of O}}{\text{ molar mass of O}}= \frac{6.57g}{16g/mole}=0.410moles

Step 2 : For the mole ratio, divide each value of moles by the smallest number of moles calculated.

For C =\frac{0.407}{0.407}=1

For H =\frac{0.541}{0.407}=1

For O = \frac{0.410}{0.407}=1

The ratio of C : H : O = 1: 1  : 1

Hence the empirical formula is CHO.

Hence the empirical formula is CHO

The empirical weight of CHO = 1(12)+1(1)+1(16)= 29 g.

If 0.25 moles has mass of 44.0 g

Thus 1 mole has mass of = \frac{44.0}{0.25}\times 1=176g

Thus molecular mass is 176 g

Now we have to calculate the molecular formula.

n=\frac{\text{Molecular weight }}{\text{Equivalent weight}}=\frac{176g}{29g}=6

The molecular formula will be=6\times CHO=C_6H_6O_6

Butoxors [25]

\huge{ \underline{ \boxed{ \bf{ \green{Answer:}}}}}

Inside the stomach, Hydrochloric acid kills micro-organisms in the food. Stomach juices begin to break down <u>proteins</u> to amino acids.

✤ So, Fill the blank with proteins.

<h3><u>Explanation:-</u></h3>
  • Inside the stomach, the digestion of proteins starts due to the action of pepsin enzyme.
  • But this enzyme remains inactive and is activated by the Hydrochloric acid(HCl).
  • The Hydrochloric acid also helps in killing the germs and microbes which entered along with food.
  • The mucous lines the wall of stomach to protect it from the harm caused by HCl because HCl is a strong acid.
  • In stomach, The partial digestion of proteins occur and rest is digested in the small intestine by Trypsin(Pancreatic enzyme) and Intestinal juices.
