T. Svedberg measured the molecular weight of carbonyl hemoglobin by velocity centrifugation. In this experiment, 0.96 g of prote

in were dissolved in 100. mL of water at 303 K , and the solution was spun at 39,300 rpm. After 30.0 min, the concentration boundary advanced by 0.074 cm from an initial position of 4.525 cm. Calculate the molecular weight of carbonyl hemoglobin.

Answer:

The molecular weight is 77.7 kg/mol

Explanation:

The molecular mass of hemoglobin is equal to:

M=\frac{RTs}{D(1-Vp)}

Where

R = molar gas constant = 8.315 J/K mol

p = density = 0.998 g/mL

V = specific volume = 0.755 mL/g

s = sedimentation rate = ?

D = diffusion rate = 7x10⁻¹¹m²/s

T = temperature = 303 K

The sedimentation rate is equal to:

s=\frac{1}{w^{2}t } ln(\frac{x_{b,t} }{x_{b,0} } )

Where

w = angular velocity = 39300 rpm = 246929.18 rad/min

xb,30 = boundary midpoint distance at 30 min = 4.525 + 0.074 cm

t = time = 30 min

xb,0 = boundary midpoint distante at 0 min = 4.525 cm

s=\frac{1}{246929.18^{2}*30 } ln(\frac{4.525+0.074}{4.525} )=8.87x10^{-13} min=5.32x10^{-13} s

The molecular weight is:

M=\frac{8.315*303*5.32x10^{-13} }{7x10^{-11}*(1-(0.755*0.998)) } =77.7kg/mol

Write the condensed nd structural formulas as well as the names for all isomers of C3H5Cl3.
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

1) 1,1,1-trichloropropane

2) 1,1,2-trichloropropane

3) 1,2,2-trichloropropane

4) 1,2,3-trichloropropane

Explanation:

For this question, we must remember that isomers are molecules that have the <em>same formula but different structure</em>s. For the formula C_3H_5Cl_3 we can draw a <u>linear chain of three carbons</u> and change the position of the chlorine atoms in the carbon chain.

With this in mind, if we put all the chlorine atoms on the same carbon we will get <u>1,1,1-trichloropropane</u>. If we change an atom from chlorine to carbon 2 we will obtain <u>1,1,2-trichloropropane</u>. If we move another chlorine atom to carbon two we will get <u>1,2,2-trichloropropane</u>. Finally, if we put a chlorine atom in each carbon we will obtain <u>1,2,3-trichloropropane</u>.

See figure one for further explanations

Nikitich [7]

Answer:

2.00 M KOH

Explanation:

Divide moles by volume and make sure your volume is in LITERS, not mL.

0.0400 mol KOH / 0.0200 L = 2.00 M KOH

The glancing angle (θ) of a Bragg reflection (n = 1) from a set of crystal planes separated by 99.3 pm is 10.42°. Calculate the
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

wavelength λ =  35.92 pm

Explanation:

Given that:

The glancing angle (θ) = 10.42°

Bragg reflection n = 1

wavelength λ = ???

diameter d = 99.3 pm

Using the formula:

nλ = 2dsinθ

we have:

1 × λ = 2 × ( 99.3) × sin (10.42°)

λ =  198.6 × 0.18086

λ =  35.92 pm
