1 answer:

8 0

The lac repressor protein binds to the operator when it is active. The lac repressor is a protein or a DNA-bounding protein as it is called. The lac repressor also involves the lactose metabolism and it is also responsible for the transcription of three lac genes.

What reactions are involved in making plastic bags and what are the molecules that make up a plastic bag like?

denpristay [2]

Plastic bags are made up of plastic film, non-woven fabric, or plastic textile. The molecules that are present in plastic bags are polymers. Polymers are large molecules made up of repeating units called monomers.
I know this isn't much, but I hope it helps! :)

When 0.49 g of a molecular compound was dissolved in 20.00 g of cyclohexane, the freezing point of the solution was lowered by 3

IRISSAK [1]

Answer: The molecular mass of this compound is 131 g/mol

Explanation:

Depression in freezing point:

$\Delta T_f=i\times k_f\times \frac{w_2\times 1000}{M_2\times w_1}$

where,

$\Delta T_f$ = depression in freezing point = $3.9^oC$

$k_f$ = freezing point constant = $20.8^0C/m$

m = molality

i = Van't Hoff factor = 1 (for non-electrolyte)

$w_2$ = mass of solute = 0.49 g

$w_1$ = mass of solvent (cyclohexane) = 20.00 g

$M_2$ = molar mass of solute = ?

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

$(3.9)^oC=1\times (20.8^oC/m)\times \frac{(0.49g)\times 1000}{M_2\times (20.00g)}$

$M_2=131g/mol$

Therefore, the molar mass of solute is 131 g/mol

Explain why we use 1/12 in finding atomic mass unit ?

Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

The u (amu is the old unit name) is 1/12 of the weight of an 12C atom. The way the u is chosen ensures that all core and atom masses are multiples of 1(±0.1) u.

Explanation:

Further explanation if needed...

Carbon 12 was chosen because the chemical atomic weights based on C12 are almost identical to the chemical atomic weights based on the natural mix of oxygen. Simply because the atomic mass is defined as 1/12 of the mass of 12C. Others isotopes of carbon (13C mostly, with an abundance of 1.1% approximately) account for an average atomic mass slightly above 12.

Pavel [41]

Answer:

The solution's new volume is 1.68 L

Explanation:

Dilution is the procedure to prepare a less concentrated solution from a more concentrated one, and simply consists of adding more solvent. So, in a dilution the amount of solute does not vary, but the volume of the solvent varies.

In summary, a dilution is a lower concentration solution than the original.

The way to do the calculations in a dilution is through the expression:

Ci*Vi=Cf*Vf

where C and V are concentration and volume, respectively; and the i and f subscripts indicate initial and final respectively.

In this case, being:

Ci= 7 M
Vi= 0.60 L
Cf= 2.5 M
Vf=?

Replacing:

7 M*0.60 L= 2.5 M* Vf

Solving:

$Vf=\frac{7 M*0.60 L}{2.5 M}$

Vf= 1.68 L

<u><em>The solution's new volume is 1.68 L</em></u>
