The amount of protein in a sample was measured by the sample's absorbance of light at a given wavelength. Using standards, a bes

t fit line (calibration curve) of absorbance (y-axes) vs. mg protein (x-axes) gave a slope of 0.0163 and an intercept of 0.104.
What is the amount of protein in an unknown sample that has an absorbance of 0.150?

Answer:

Protein Concentration is 2.82mg/L

Explanation:

According to Beer-Lambert's Law, Absorbance is directly proportional to the concentration.

However, the concentration of a solution can be determined from a calibration curve, in which Absorbance is plotted on the y-axis and the Concentration on the x-axis.

Plotting the best line, the equation of line is used

y = mx + c

where y is absorbance = 0.150

           m is slope = 0.0163

            x is concentration

             c is intercept = 0.104

inserting the values from the question

y = mx + c

0.150 = 0.0163x + 0.104

0.0163x = 0.150 - 0.104

0.0163x = 0.046

Divide both sides by 0.0163

0.0163x/0.0163 = 0.046/0.0163

x = 2.82

Concentration of protein = 2.82 mg/L

How many moles are equal to 3.0x10^23 atoms of germanium? PLS ANSWER WITH WORK!
horrorfan [7]
1 mole=6.02 x 10^23 atoms so how many moles are there in 3.0 x 10^23 we will cross multiply, 1 x 3.0 x 10^23 / 6.02 x 10 ^23. Which will give us 0.498 moles.
Hope this helped

Using VSEPR theory which of the following would be the correct shape for nitrogen trifluoride?
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

trigonal pyramidal

Explanation:

In NF3, the nitrogen atom is sp3 hybridized. Now we must remember that according to the VSEPR theory, the number of electron pairs in the valence shell of the central atom in a molecule determines its shape.

Here, the nitrogen atom is the central atom and its outermost shell is surrounded by four electron pairs - one lone pair and three bond pairs. This means that it has a tetrahedral electron pair geometry.

However, due to the lone pair, the three fluorine atoms are arranged in a  trigonal pyramidal geometry. Hence the correct shape of the molecule is trigonal pyramidal.
