Answer:

39.7 %

Explanation:

magnesium + oxygen ⟶ magnesium oxide

   10.57 g         6.96 g               17.53 g

According to the <em>Law of Conservation of Mass</em>, the mass of the product must equal the total mass of the reactants.

Mass of MgO = 10.57 + 6.96

Mass of MgO = 17.53 g

The formula for mass percent is

% by mass = Mass of component/Total mass × 100 %

In this case,

% O = mass of O/mass of MgO × 100 %

Mass of O = 6.96 g

Mass of MgO = 17.53 g

% O = 6.96/17.53 × 100

% O = 0.3970 × 100

% O = 39.7 %

Investigators are studying a protein that must be phosphorylated to be activated. Which method could be used to separate the pho
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

There is two common methods to separate a phosphorylated protein from the proteins who does not have the phosphate group.

1. Western Blot test

The Western blot test is a method where we separate of the biological sample with SDS- PAGE (electrophoresis method) and then we transfer to a nitrocellulose membrane. We use a phospho-specific antibody to identify the protein of interest.

2. The ELISA test

this test is also a powerful method for measuring protein phosphorylation. Elisa test is more are quantitative than Western blot test and also shows great advantage in studies related with kinase activity. In this test we use a capture antibody specific for the desired protein, independent of the phosphorylation state. The target protein is binded to the antibody-coated plate.  and finally a detection antibody specific for the phosphorylation site analyzed is added. In these test it is possible to use colorimetric or fluorometric detection.

What is the molarity of a solution made by mixing 75.0 mL of 3.00 M NH₄OH with enough water to give 250. mL of solution?
enyata [817]

Answer:

Mass 1=3M

Mass 2=?

Volume1=75mL

Volume2=250mL

By using molarity formula:

<u>mass1*volume 1=mass2*volume 2</u>

3M*75=mass2*250

mass2=225/250

mass2:0.9M

<h3>the molarity of a solution is 0.9M.</h3>

Enter your answer in the box provided. How many grams of helium must be added to a balloon containing 6.24 g helium gas to doubl
Archy [21]

Answer : The mass of helium gas added must be 12.48 grams.

Explanation : Given,

Mass of helium (He) gas = 6.24 g

Molar mass of helium = 4 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of helium gas.

\text{Moles of }He=\frac{\text{Mass of }He}{\text{Molar mass of }He}=\frac{6.24g}{4g/mole}=1.56moles

Now we have to calculate the moles of helium gas at doubled volume.

According to the Avogadro's law, the volume of gas is directly proportional to the number of moles of gas at same pressure and temperature. That means,

V\propto n

or,

\frac{V_1}{V_2}=\frac{n_1}{n_2}

where,

V_1 = initial volume of gas  = V

V_2 = final volume of gas = 2V

n_1 = initial moles of gas  = 1.56 mole

n_2 = final moles of gas  = ?

Now we put all the given values in this formula, we get

\frac{V}{2V}=\frac{1.56mole}{n_2}

n_2=3.12mole

Now we have to calculate the mass of helium gas at doubled volume.

\text{Mass of }He=\text{Moles of }He\times \text{Molar mass of }He

\text{Mass of }He=3.12mole\times 4g/mole=12.48g

Therefore, the mass of helium gas added must be 12.48 grams.
