How common is tryptophan in our food, what effect does it have on our body?

Chemistry

dedylja [7]3 years ago
5 0
I can't give you an exact number or anything for how common it is. However, I can say that it is QUITE common in our food.

There's many effects it has to the human body, therefore I'll only list a few.

~social behavior~irritability~mood swings~sleepiness
Also, if tryptophan is used as a drug it can be used to treat depression. Though, it can only help to a certain extent. It varies as well; depending on the person. (Don't quote me on that completely though.)

I hope this helped :)

A steel tank contains carbon dioxide at a pressure of 13.0 atm when the temperature is 34oC. What will be the internal gas press
morpeh [17]

Answer:

D. 15.8atm

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial pressure = 13atm

Initial temperature  = 34°C = 34 + 273  = 307K

Final temperature  = 100°C = 100 + 273  = 373K

Unknown:

Final pressure  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we apply a derivation of the combined gas law taking the volume as a constant.

The expression is shown mathematically below;

        \frac{P_{1} }{T_{1} }   = \frac{P_{2} }{T_{2} }

P and T pressure and temperature values

1 and 2 are initial and final states

 Insert the parameters and solve for T₂;

    \frac{13}{307}   = \frac{P_{2} }{373}  

        P₂  = 15.8atm

Why do strong bonds exist between water molecules? They have nonpolar structure. They are held together by hydrogen bonds. The h
Zolol [24]

Answer:

They are held together by hydrogen bonds

Explanation:

Hydrogen bonds are special dipole-dipole attractions between polar molecules in which a hydrogen atom is directly joined to a highly electronegative atom(oxygen or nitorgen or fluorine).

Such molecules includes water, alkanoic acids, ammonia and amines.

A hydrogen nucleus has a high concentration of positive charge. The bond is actually an electrostatic attraction between the hydrogen atom of one molecule and the electronegative atom(O or N or F).

Hydrogen bonds are very effective in binding molecules into larger units. Most substances that joins with hydrogen bonds have a higher boiling point and lower volatility.

This is why we have a strong intermolecular bond between water molecules.

2. What is the mass of a car with a momentum of 10,000.00 kgm/s, traveling at 15.0 m/s?
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

666.67 kg is the mass of a car.

Explanation:

Momentum is defined as amount of motion possessed by the the moving body. It is mathematically calculated by multiplying mass into velocity by which object is moving.

Momentum(P)=Mass(m)\times Velocity(v)

Mass of the car = m =?

Velocity of the car = v = 15.0 m/s

Momentum of the car = P = 10,000.00 kgm/s

m=\frac{P}{v}

m=\frac{ 10,000.00 kgm/s}{15.0 m/s}=666.67 kg

666.67 kg is the mass of a car.
