What is a term called gradient in Earth Science?

1 answer:

4 0

The gradient is the slope of a linear equation, represented in the simplest form as y = mx + b. In Earth Science, the gradient is usually used to measure how steep certain changes in elevation are.

In order to find the gradient in a topographical setting, one must know two things: the elevation of two points and the distance between the two points. Once these values are known, the gradient can be found by dividing the change in field value, or the change in elevation, by the distance. The higher the gradient value is, the steeper the slope is.

A saturated solution is made by dissolving 0.327 g of a polypeptide (a substance formed by joining together in a chainlike fashi

faust18 [17]

Answer: The approximate molecular mass of the polypeptide is 856 g/mol

Explanation:

To calculate the concentration of solute, we use the equation for osmotic pressure, which is:

$\pi=iMRT$

Or,

$\pi=i\times \frac{\text{Mass of solute}}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Volume of solution in L)}}\times RT$

where,

$\pi$ = osmotic pressure of the solution = 4.19 torr

i = Van't hoff factor = 1 (for non-electrolytes)

Mass of solute (polypeptide) = 0.327 g

Volume of solution = 1.70 L

R = Gas constant = $62.364\text{ L.torr }mol^{-1}K^{-1}$

T = temperature of the solution = $26^oC=[273+26]K=299K$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$4.19torr=1\times \frac{0.327}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times 1.70}\times 62.364\text{ L.mmHg }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 299K\\\\\text{molar mass of solute}=856g/mol$

Hence, the molar mass of the polypeptide is 856 g/mol
