Chemistry

1 answer:

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]3 years ago

8 0

Answer:

The atomic number on the Periodic Table identifies the number of protons in any atom of that element. Copper, atomic number 29, has 29 protons. Finding the atomic number of an element reveals the number of protons.

To find the number of neutrons in the atom, subtract the atomic number from the atomic mass.

Warm air _____.

svp [43]

Answer:

cools as it rises, then sinks back down

Explanation:

The movement of air is a convection current. Convection currents occur when warm air rises, cools down, and sinks due to gained density, replacing the warm air closer to the ground, creating a cycle.

Indicate the peptides that would result from cleavage by the indicated reagent: a. Gly-Lys-Leu-Ala-Cys-Arg-Ala-Phe by trypsin b.

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

a. Gly-Lys + Leu-Ala-Cys-Arg + Ala-Phe

b. Glu-Ala-Phe + Gly-Ala-Tyr

Explanation:

In this case, we have to remember which peptidic bonds can break each protease:

-) Trypsin

It breaks selectively the peptidic bond in the carbonyl group of lysine or arginine.

-) Chymotrypsin

It breaks selectively the peptidic bond in the carbonyl group of phenylalanine, tryptophan, or tyrosine.

With this in mind in "peptide a", the peptidic bonds that would be broken are the ones in the "Lis" and "Arg" (See figure 1).

In "peptide b", the peptidic bond that would be broken is the one in the "Phe" (See figure 2). The second amino acid that can be broken is tyrosine, but this amino acid is placed in the C terminal spot, therefore will not be involved in the hydrolysis.

A chemical reaction involves reactant species A, B, and C. Leaving all other factors identical, doubling the concentration of sp

umka21 [38]

Answer:

Rate = k . [B]² . [C]

Explanation:

The dependence of the reaction rate on the concentration of the reactants is given by the reaction order of each one, as shown in the rate equation.

$Rate=k.[A]^{x} .[B]^{y} .[C]^{z}$

where,

k is the rate constant

x, y, z are the reaction orders.

The rate of reaction is not affected by changing the concentration of species A. This means that the reaction order for A is x = 0 since when its concentration changes, the rate stays the same.

Leaving all other factors identical, doubling the concentration of species B increases the rate by a factor of 4. This means that the reaction order for B is y = 2, so when the concentration is doubled, the new rate is 2² = 4 times the initial rate.

The rate of the reaction is linearly dependent on the concentration of C. This means that the reaction order for C is z = 1, that is, a linear dependence.

All in all, the rate equation is:

Rate = k . [B]² . [C]
