Answer : The molar mass of catalase is, 2.40\times 10^5g/mol

Explanation :

Formula used :

\pi =CRT\\\\\pi=\frac{w}{M\times V}RT

where,

\pi = osmotic pressure  = 0.745 torr = 0.000980 atm   (1 atm = 760 torr)

C = concentration

R = solution constant  = 0.0821 L.atm/mol.K

T = temperature  = 27^oC=273+27=300K

w = mass of catalase = 10.03 g

M = molar mass of catalase = ?

V = volume of solution  = 1.05 L

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

0.000980atm=\frac{10.03g}{M\times 1.05L}\times (0.0821L.atm/mole.K)\times (300K)

M=2.40\times 10^5g/mol

Therefore, the molar mass of catalase is, 2.40\times 10^5g/mol

Which of the following atoms would have a charge of +1?
erica [24]

Answer: An atom with 6 protons, 5 electrons, and 7 neutrons

Explanation: In this case, neutrons do not matter as they have a charge of 0, or no charge. A proton has a charge of +1 and an electron has a charge of -1. Since there are 6 protons, the total charge of the protons would be +6. Since there are 5 electrons the total charge of the electrons would be -5. +6 - 5 would result in a charge of +1. This means that this atom would have an overall charge of + 1. Basically, if there is one more proton than electron, then the overall charge of the atom will be +1 but if there is one more electron than proton, then the overall charge of the atom will be -1.

A cylinder with a moveable piston is completely filled with a small amount (100 millimoles) of liquid water at a pressure of 1.0
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

Region B, because the pressure inside the cylinder is equal to the vapor pressure of water at 80∘C when both liquid and gas phases are present.

Explanation:

As expansion occurs, liquid water evaporates reversibly, holding the pressure constant at the equilibrium vapor pressure of water at 80∘C(0.47atm) 80∘C (0.47 atm). When all of the liquid has evaporated, the pressure drops and follows the ideal gas law.

What type of rock would be formed in this plant-rich swamp?
adell [148]
We are asked to identify what type of rock would be formed in a plant-rich swamp. We all know that plant dies and the remain leaves in the soil called peat. Temperature, pressure and heat causes the remains to submerged under the soil bed layer and converts it into a waxy substance called kerogen. Kerogen then mixes with the rock under the soil bed layer to create what is called an oil shale. Oil shale is somehow similar to a coal. Both creates an energy when ignited. Therefore the correct answer to the question being asked is COAL or Oil Shale.
