Answer:

The answer is IONIC BOND

Explanation:

Steroidogenic acute regulatory, (StAR) protein is a type of globular protein, which allows it act as an active catalyst on substrates. Because the substrates on which enzymes act usually have higher molecular weights of several hundred as compared to the enzymes, only a fraction of the enzyme's surface is in contact with the substrate. This region of contact called the <em>active site</em>, is as a result of the protein folding itself into a tertiary structure.

Once the correct substrate has bound at the active site of the enzyme, an enzyme-substrate complex is created. The substrate is usually held in the complex by combinations of electrical attraction, hydrophobic repulsion, or hydrogen bonding between and from the amino acid; the strongest of which is the ionic/electrostatic bonding due to larger amount of ionic "R" groups in the protein structure.

So whilst all these inter-molecular interactions are possible, the strongest would be <u>ionic bond.</u>

Answer:

ΔG° = -5.4 kJ/mol

ΔG = 873.2 J/mol = 0.873 kJ /mol

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

ΔG (NO2) = 51.84 kJ/mol

ΔG (N2O4)  = 98.28 kJ/mol

Step 2:

ΔG = ΔG° + RT ln Q

⇒with Q = the reaction quatient

⇒with T = the temperature = 298 K

⇒with R = 8.314 J / mol*K

⇒with ΔG° = ΔG° (N2O4) - 2*ΔG°(NO2 )

⇒ ΔG° = 98.28 kJ/mol - 2* 51.84  kJ/mol

⇒ ΔG° = -5.4 kJ/mol

Part B

ΔG =  ΔG° =RT ln Q

⇒with G° = -5.4 kj/mol = -5400 j/mol

⇒ with R = 8.314 J/K*mol

⇒with T = 298 K

⇒with Q = p(N2O4)/ [ p(NO2) ]² = 1.63/0.36² = 12.577

ΔG = -5400 + 8.314 * 298 * ln(12.577)

ΔG = -5400 + 8.314 * 298 * 2.532

ΔG = 873.2 J/mol = 0.873 kJ/mol

Experiments show that each of the following redox reactions is second-order overall: (1) NO2(g) + CO(g) → NO(g) + CO2(g) (2) NO(
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

a) rate law1 = k[NO2]²

b) rate law2 = k[NO][O3]

Explanation:

NO2(g) + CO(g) → NO(g) + CO2(g)

NO(g) + O3(g) → NO2(g) + O2(g)

When [NO2] in reaction 1 is doubled, the reaction quadruples

Rxn is second order.

rate law1= [NO2]^a [CO]^b

rate law1= [NO2]² [CO]^0

rate law1 = k[NO2]²

When [NO] in reaction 2 is doubled, the rate doubles.

Rxn is first order

The ratio is 1:1

this makes the rate law2 = k[NO][O3]

Answer:

8.61 mL of the HCl solution

Explanation:

The reaction that takes place is:

  • 2HCl + Mg(OH)₂ → MgCl₂ + 2H₂O

From the given mass of Mg(OH)₂, we can calculate <u>the moles of HCl that are neutralized</u>:

  • 4x10² mg = 400 mg = 0.400g
  • 0.400g Mg(OH)₂ ÷ 58.32g/1mol = 6.859*10⁻³ mol Mg(OH)₂
  • 6.859*10⁻³ mol Mg(OH)₂ * \frac{1molHCl}{1molMg(OH)_{2}} = 3.429x10⁻³ mol HCl

Finally, to calculate the volume of an HCl solution, we need both the moles and the concentration. We can <u>calculate the concentration using the pH value</u>:

  • pH = -log[H⁺]
  • 1.4 =  -log[H⁺]
  • 10^{-1.4} = [H⁺]
  • 0.0398 M = [H⁺] = [HCl]  *Because HCl is a strong acid*

Thus, the volume is:

  • 0.0398 M = 3.429x10⁻³mol HCl / Volume
  • Volume = 8.616x10⁻³ L = 8.62 mL

what is the molarity of a 25 ml sample if it is diluted by adding 50 mol pf water and the molarity changes to 0.186 m?
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

0.558 M

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question. This includes the following:

Initial concentration (C1) =..?

Initial volume (V1) = 25mL

Final volume = 25 + 50 = 75mL

Final concentration (C2) = 0.186 M

The initial concentration of the solution can be obtained as follow:

C1V1 = C2V2

C1 x 25 = 0.186 x 75

Divide both side by 25

C1 = (0.186 x 75) /25

C1 = 0.558 M

Therefore, the initial concentration of the stock was 0.558 M
