Suppose that Biuret reagent turns purple when it is added to an unknown substance. What can you conclude about the substance?

Chemistry

Oksi-84 [34.3K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

the unknown substance is a protein

Explanation:

The biuret test is one of the tests for proteins. It  can be used to  detect peptide linkages. The biuret test is carried out in an alkaline solution. A coordination complex is formed  leading to the appearance of a  violet color.

Summarily, the biuret method is a colorimetric technique used to test for proteins and peptides.  It involves the formation of  a purple (violet) complex of Copper salts in alkaline solution.

Hence when the biuret reagent is added to an unknown substance and it turns purple, the unknown substance is a protein

1.Calculate the end velocity of a rocket that traveled 16km in 2 seconds.
fomenos

Answer:

1}800m/s

2}80m/s²

Explanation:

1]first convert the kilometers to meters so as to obtain similar units;

16×1000=16000m   (1Km=1000m)

then divide the ditance by time:

speed=distance/time  

=16000m/2s

=800m/s

2]acceleration=(initial velocity -final velocity)/time taken

=(800m/s-0m/s)/10s

=800m/s/10s

=80m/s²

2. A sample of helium gas has a volume of 200.0 mL at 0.960 atm. What pressure, in atmospheres, is needed to reduce the volume a
brilliants [131]

Answer:

3.840 atm

Explanation:

We use Boyle's law, which relates the pressure (P) and the volume (V) of a gas at a constant temperature. The change from initial P and V (P₁ and V₁) to final P and V (P₂ and V₂) is expressed as:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

We have the following data:

P₁= 0.960 atm

V₁= 200.0 mL

V₂ = 50.0 mL

Thus, we introduce the data in the equation and calculate the final pressure P₂:

P₂ = P₁V₁/V₂= (0.960 atm x 200.0 mL)/50.0 mL = 3.840 atm

Therefore, a pressure of 3.840 atm is needed to reduce the volume of the gas from 200.0 mL to 50.0 mL.

Hydrogen gas is produced when zinc reacts with hydrochloric acid. If the actual yield of this reaction is 85%?
Leokris [45]
Reaction equation:
Zn + 2HCl → ZnCl₂ + H₂

One mole of gas occupies 22.4 L at STP
Moles of H₂ = 112/22.4
= 5 moles

The theoretical amount of Zn needed is 5 mol
The actual amount = 5/0.85
= 5.88 moles

mass = moles x Mr
mass = 5.88 x 65
mass = 382.2 g

The answer is D.
