A solution made by dissolving 33 mg of insulin in 6.5 mL of water has an osmotic pressure of 15.5 mmHg at 25°C. Calculate the mo

<u>Answer:</u> The molar mass of the insulin is 6087.2 g/mol

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the concentration of solute, we use the equation for osmotic pressure, which is:

\pi=iMRT

Or,

\pi=i\times \frac{\text{Mass of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}\times RT

where,

\pi = osmotic pressure of the solution = 15.5 mmHg

i = Van't hoff factor = 1 (for non-electrolytes)

Mass of solute (insulin) = 33 mg = 0.033 g   (Conversion factor: 1 g = 1000 mg)

Volume of solution = 6.5 mL

R = Gas constant = 62.364\text{ L.mmHg }mol^{-1}K^{-1}

T = temperature of the solution = 25^oC=[273+25]=298K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

15.5mmHg=1\times \frac{0.033\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of insulin}\times 6.5}\times 62.364\text{ L.mmHg }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 298K\\\\\text{molar mass of insulin}=\frac{1\times 0.033\times 1000\times 62.364\times 298}{15.5\times 6.5}=6087.2g/mol

Hence, the molar mass of the insulin is 6087.2 g/mol

Does the temperature of the solvent (water) affect the rate of dissolving?​
gregori [183]
Yes. Heating up the solvent gives the molecules more kinetic energy. The more rapid motion means that the solvent molecules collide with the solute with greater frequency and the collisions occur with more force. Both factors increase the rate at which the solute dissolves.

Given that Kp [NOTE: Kp!!!!] = 1.39 at 400 ºC for the reaction, P4(g) &lt;=&gt; 2 P2(g), which answer best describes the reactio
Igoryamba

Answer:

The reaction will proceed to the left to attain equilibrium.

Explanation:

The question is missing but I guess it must be about <em>how the reaction will proceed to attain equilibrium.</em>

First, we have to calculate the partial pressures using the ideal gas equation.

pP_{4}=\frac{2.50mol\times (0.08206atm.L/mol.K)\times 673K}{25.0L} =5.52atm

pP_{2}=\frac{1.50mol\times (0.08206atm.L/mol.K)\times 673K}{25.0L}=3.31atm

Now, we have to calculate the reaction quotient (Qp).

Qp=\frac{pP_{2}^{2}}{pP_{4}} =\frac{3.31^{2} }{5.52} =1.98

Since Qp > Kp, the reaction will proceed to the left to attain equilibrium.

Given the following rate equation, complete the sentences to identify the reaction order for each reagent, the overall reaction
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

1. First

2. Third

3. Fourth

4.remain the same as

Explanation:

Given the reaction equation;

Rate= k[A] [B]^3

We can see that the order of reaction is first order with respect to reactant A and third order with respect to reactant B. This gives an overall fourth order reaction.

If the concentration of A is doubled and that of B is halved. The rate of reaction remains the same.
