The basic building blocks of a protein are

snow_lady [41]

The building blocks of protein are amino acids.

Amino acids are a class of organic compounds that contain at least one amino group, -NH2, and carboxyl group, -COOH.

Alpha amino acids , RCH(NH2)COOH, are the building blocks from which proteins are constructed.

The NH group of one amino acid and the COOH group of the other amino acid are joined together and a peptide bond -CONH- is formed between the two amino acids and the product is called a dipeptide.

Mark the statement as true or false All of the proposed ideas by Dalton, Thompson, and Rutherford are still used in the modern t

kvv77 [185]

False

Although we use many of their ideas to describe atoms today, such as the existence of a tiny, dense nucleus in an atom (proposed by Rutherford), or the notion that all atoms of an element are identical (proposed by Dalton), some of their ideas have been rejected by the modern theory of the atom.

For example, Thompson came up with the plum pudding model to describe an atom, which resembled a sphere of positive charge with electrons embedded in it. We know now, however, that atoms are mostly empty space with a tiny, dense nucleus.

Another example is Dalton's atomic theory, which stated that atoms are indivisible particles. However, this was disproved by the discovery of subatomic particles.

(a) Write the balanced neutralization reaction that occurs between H2SO4 and KOH in aqueous solution. Phases are optional. (b) S

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

These are two questions and two answers

Answer:

Question 1:

H₂SO₄ (aq) + 2KOH (aq) → K₂SO₄ (aq) + 2H₂O (l)

Question 2:

0.201 M

Explanation:

Question 1:

The neutralization reaction that occurs between H₂SO₄ and KOH is an acid-base reaction.

The products of an acid-base reaction are salt and water.

This is the sketch of such neutralization reaction:

1) Word equation:

sulfuric acid + potassium hydroxide → potassium sulfate + water

↑ ↑ ↑ ↑

acid base salt water

2) Skeleton equation (unbalanced)

H₂SO₄ + KOH → K₂SO₄ + H₂O

#) Balanced chemical equation (including phases)

H₂SO₄ (aq) + 2KOH (aq) → K₂SO₄ (aq) + 2H₂O (l) ← answer

Question 2:

1) Mol ratio:

Using the stoichiometric coefficients of the balanced chemical equation you get the mol ratio:

1 mol H₂SO₄ (aq) : 2 mol KOH (aq) : 1 mol K₂SO₄ (aq) : mol 2H₂O (l)

2) Moles of H₂SO₄:

V = 0.750 liter
M = 0.480 mol/liter
M = n/V ⇒ n = M×V = 0.480 mol/liter × 0.750 liter = 0.360 mol

3) Moles of KOH:

V = 0.700 liter
M = 0.290 mol/liter
M = n/V ⇒ n = M × V = 0.290 mol/liter × 0.700 liter = 0.203 mol

4) Determine the limiting reagent:

a) Stoichiometric ratio:

1 mol H₂SO₄ / 2 mol NaOH = 0.500 mol H₂SO4 / mol NaOH

b) Actual ratio:

0.360 mol H₂SO4 / 0.203 mol NaOH = 1.77 mol H₂SO₄ / mol NaOH

Since hte actual ratio of H₂SO₄ is greater than the stoichiometric ratio, you conclude that H₂SO₄ is in excess.

5) Amount of H₂SO₄ that reacts:

Since, KOH is the limiting reactant, using 0.203 mol KOH and the stoichiometryc ratio 1 mol H₂SO₄ / 2 mol KOH, you get:

x / 0.203 mol KOH = 1 mol H₂SO₄ / 2 mol KOH ⇒

x = 0.203 / 2 = 0.0677 mol of H₂SO₄

6) Concentration of H₂SO₄ remaining:

Initial amount - amount that reacted = 0.360 mol - 0.0677 mol = 0.292 mol

Total volume = 0.700 liter + 0.750 liter = 1.450 liter

Concetration = M

M = n / V = 0.292 mol / 1.450 liter = 0.201 M ← answer
