Answer:

The answer to your question is: 17.26% of carbon

Explanation:

Data

CxHy = 0.2121 g

BaCO₃ = 0.6006 g

Molecular mass BaCO₃ = 137 + 12 + 48 = 197 g

Reaction

                    CO₂  +  Ba(OH)₂  ⇒   BaCO₃  +  H₂O

Process

1.- Find the amount of carbon in BaCO₃

                              197 g of BaCO₃   ---------------  12 g of Carbon

                               0.6006 g           ----------------    x

                               x = (0.6006 x 12) / 197

                               x = 0.0366 g of carbon

2.- Calculate the percentage of carbon in the organic compound

           0.2121 g of organic compound  ---------------  100%

           0.0366g                                       --------------    x

                              x = (0.0366 x 100) / 0.2121

                              x = 17.26%

The molar absorptivity of a tyrosine residue at 280 nm is 2000 M-1cm-1, while for tryptophan it is 5500 M-1cm-1. A protein has b
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

There are 4 tryptophans in the protein.

Explanation:

According to question,  protein contains one tyrosine residue and say x number of tryptophans.

Concentration of protein solution = 1.0 micromolar = 1.0\times 10^{-6} Molar

Molar absorptivity of a protein solution : \epsilon

\epsilon = \epsilon _{tyro}+\epsilon _{tryp}

=1\times 2000 M^{-1}cm^{-1}+x\times 5500 M^{-1}cm^{-1}

Length of the cuvette = l = 1.0 cm

Absorbance of protein solution at 280 nm = A = 0.024

A=\epsilon \times l\times c ( Beer-Lambert's law)

0.024=(1\times 2000 M^{-1}cm^{-1}+x\times 5500 M^{-1}cm^{-1})\times 1 cm\times 1.0\times 10^{-6} M

Solving for x :

x = 4

There are 4 tryptophans in the protein.

Which stament about energy is mostly correct
klasskru [66]
I would say C is the most correct. 
In D it depends on what water source you're using. Let's say it is a waterfall, then the source of the water (melting ice or a lake) may disappear in the future. 
If you're using underwater "windmills" placed in the ocean, then you would expect it to last a while as the ocean will not disappear in the near future.

How many grams of Ca(OH)2are required to make 1.5 L of a 0.81 M solution?
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

Mass = 90.28 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of Ca(OH)₂ = ?

Volume of solution= 1.5 L

Molarity of solution = 0.81 M

Solution:

First of all we will calculate number of moles.

Molarity = number of moles / volume in L

by putting values,

0.81 M = Number of moles / 1.5 L

Number of moles = 0.81 M × 1.5 L

Number of moles = 1.22 mol

Mass of Ca(OH)₂ in gram:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 1.22 mol × 74.09 g/mol

Mass = 90.28 g

the elements iron and oxygen can react to form the compound iron oxide. what type of reaction is this? please explain.
rjkz [21]
Your reaction
.. Fe + O2 ---> FexOy
for this reaction..
.. the Fe on the left is in the 0 oxidation state
.. the Fe on the right is in the +(2y/x) oxidation state
.. the O on the left is in the 0 oxidation state
.. the O on the right is in the -2 oxidation state
meaning
.. the O is reduced... . . (it's reduced in oxidation state)
.. the Fe is oxidized.. . .(oxidation state increased)
this is a REDOX reaction

*********
AND.. it's also a synthesis reaction.. (aka combination reaction)
