Classify each amino acid according to whether its side chain is predominantly protonated or deprotonated at a pHpH of 7.40.7.40.

The pKapKa values of the Asp, His, and Lys side chains are 3.65, 6.00, and 10.53,3.65, 6.00, and 10.53, respectively.

Answer: His and Lys are deprotonated but Asp will be protonated.

Explanation:

As the pH is given as 7.4 and pK of His is given as 6.00. There will occur a positive charge on His when it's pH < pK therefore, it is neutral at the given pH.

As the pK value of Lys is 10.53 that is greater than the pH of 7.40. Therefore, charge on Lys is positive.

As the pK value of Asp is 3.65 which is less than the pH value of 7.40. Hence, Asp has a negative charge.

Therefore, we can conclude that His and Lys are deprotonated but Asp will be protonated.

What is the wavelength in nm of a light whose first order bright band forms a
miskamm [114]

Answer:

714 nm

Explanation:

Using the equation: nλ=d<em>sin</em>θ

where

n= order of maximum

λ= wavelength

d= distance between lines on diffraction grating

θ= angle

n is 1 because the problem states the light forms 1st order bright band

λ is unknown

d=  \frac{1}{700,000} or 0.0000014 (meters)

sin(30)= 0.5

so

(1)λ=(0.0000014)(0.5)

=0.000000714m or 714 nm

Which electron configuration is correct for a sodium ion?
jeka94

The electron configuration for sodium ion Na⁺ : <u>(2) 2-8</u>

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

In an atom there are levels of energy in the shell and sub shell

This energy level is expressed in the form of electron configurations.

Writing electron configurations starts from the lowest to the highest sub-shell energy level. There are 4 sub-shells in the shell of an atom, namely s, p, d and f. The maximum number of electrons for each sub shell is

  • s: 2 electrons
  • p: 6 electrons
  • d: 10 electrons and
  • f: 14 electrons

Charging electrons in the sub shell uses the following sequence:

<em>1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹⁰, 4p⁶, 5s², 4d¹⁰, 5p⁶, 6s², etc. </em>

Determination of electron configurations based on principles:

• 1. Aufbau: Electrons occupy orbitals of the lowest energy level

• 2 Hund: electrons fill orbitals with the same energy level

• 3. Pauli: no electrons have the same 4 quantum numbers

The alkali metal Na will release electrons to form Na + so that the electron configuration is stable as the noble gas element Ne

electron configuration Ne: [He] 2s² 2p⁶

Na electron configuration: [Ne] 3s¹

electron configuration Na + = [Ne] = [He] 2s² 2p⁶

The maximum number of electrons in the shell K, L, M, N

According to Bohr, the maximum number of electrons that can occupy each atomic shell can be calculated by the formula 2n²

  • K shell (n = 1): 2.1² = 2 electrons
  • L shell (n = 2): 2. 2² = 8 electrons
  • M shell (n = 3): 2. 3² = 18 electrons
  • N shell (n = 4): 2. 4² = 32 electrons

If we look at the configuration of the Na⁺ ion:

1s² 2s² 2p⁶ then

on the shell n=1 (1s) there are 2 electrons

on the shells n=2 (2s and 2p) there are 8 electrons

So that the configuration

Na⁺ = 2-8

What would happen if the earth magnetic field flips? <br><br> plz help
Mumz [18]

The end of the world as we know it could come in any number of ways, depending on who you ask. Some people believe global cataclysm will occur when Earth's magnetic poles reverse. When north goes south, they say, the continents will lurch in one direction or the other, triggering massive earthquakes, rapid climate change and species extinctions.

 

The most dramatic changes that occur when the poles reverse is a very large decrease of the total field intensity,

Earth's magnetic field takes between 1,000 and 10,000 years to reverse, and in the process, it greatly diminishes before it re-aligns. It's not a sudden flip, but a slow process, during which the field strength becomes weak, very probably the field becomes more complex and might show more than two poles for a while, and then builds up in strength and [aligns] in the opposite direction.
