In the polypeptide Phe-Tyr-Glu-Asp-Ser-Ile-Leu-Ser what is the N-terminal amino acid?

Chemistry
1 answer:
avanturin [10]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

N-terminal Phe, C-terminal Ser

Explanation:

Amino acids connect like

NH2 -CH(R1) -CO -NH-CH(R2)-CO-.....-NH-CH(Rn)COOH

So, 1st amino acid is N -terminal , and it is Phe.

Last amino acid is C- terminal, and it is Ser.

<h3>Answer:</h3>

        NH₃ > NH₄NO₃ > (NH₄)₂HPO₄ > (NH₄)₂SO₄ > KNO₃ > (NH₄)H₂PO₄

<h3>Soution:</h3>

In (NH₄)₂HPO₄:

Mass of Nitrogen  =  N × 2  =  14 × 2  =  28 g.mol⁻¹

Molar Mass of (NH₄)₂HPO₄  =  132.06 g.mol⁻¹

Mass %age  =  Mass of N / M.Mass of (NH₄)₂HPO₄ × 100

Mass %age  =  28 g.mol⁻¹ / 132.06 g.mol⁻¹ × 100

Mass %age  =  21.20 %

In (NH₄)₂SO₄:

Mass of Nitrogen  =  N × 2  =  14 × 2  =  28 g.mol⁻¹

Molar Mass of (NH₄)₂SO₄  =  132.14 g.mol⁻¹

Mass %age  =  Mass of N / M.Mass of (NH₄)₂SO₄ × 100

Mass %age  =  28 g.mol⁻¹ / 132.14 g.mol⁻¹ × 100

Mass %age  =  21.18 %

In KNO₃:

Mass of Nitrogen  =  N × 1  =  14 × 1  =  14 g.mol⁻¹

Molar Mass of KNO₃  =  101.10 g.mol⁻¹

Mass %age  =  Mass of N / M.Mass of KNO₃ × 100

Mass %age  =  14 g.mol⁻¹ / 101.10 g.mol⁻¹ × 100

Mass %age  =  13.84 %

In (NH₄)H₂PO₄:

Mass of Nitrogen  =  N × 1  =  14 × 1  =  14 g.mol⁻¹

Molar Mass of (NH₄)H₂PO₄  =  115.03 g.mol⁻¹

Mass %age  =  Mass of N / M.Mass of (NH₄)H₂PO₄ × 100

Mass %age  =  14 g.mol⁻¹ / 115.03 g.mol⁻¹ × 100

Mass %age  =  12.17 %

In NH₃:

Mass of Nitrogen  =  N × 1  =  14 × 1  =  14 g.mol⁻¹

Molar Mass of NH₃  =  132.14 g.mol⁻¹

Mass %age  =  Mass of N / M.Mass of NH₃ × 100

Mass %age  =  14 g.mol⁻¹ / 17.03 g.mol⁻¹ × 100

Mass %age  =  82.20 %

In NH₄NO₃:

Mass of Nitrogen  =  N × 2  =  14 × 2  =  28 g.mol⁻¹

Molar Mass of NH₄NO₃  =  80.04 g.mol⁻¹

Mass %age  =  Mass of N / M.Mass of NH₄NO₃ × 100

Mass %age  =  28 g.mol⁻¹ / 80.04 g.mol⁻¹ × 100

Mass %age  =  34.98 %

Chalk markings cannot be easily rubbed off from a black board if kept for a long time.why?
snow_tiger [21]

The chalk particles embed themselves into the small pores on the surface.

Although a chalkboard seems smooth to the touch, it is quite rough at the microscopic level, with <em>pores</em> that reach below the surface.

When you drag chalk across the board, friction causes small particles of chalk to rub off onto the surface.

If you leave the markings for a long time, some of the chalk particles will work their way into the pores.

A brush will remove the surface particles, but <em>it will not be able to get at the particles in the pores</em>.

The number of nucleons in an atom is the atom's (atomic, mass) number.
ELEN [110]
The number of neutrons in an atom is the number of particles present in its nucleus.
The atomic number is the number of protons whereas the mass number is the number of protons and number of neutrons together
This implies that the number of neutrons is the atom's mass number

The atmospheric pressure in Denver, Colorado, is usually about 84.00 kPa. What is this pressure in atm and torr units?
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

<u>84.00 kPa = 630.084 torr</u>

Formula for kPa to torr: For an approximate result, multiply the pressure value by 7.501. <em><u>84* 7.501</u></em>

<u>84.00 kPa = 0.831683168 atm</u>

Formula for kPa to atm: for an approximate result, divide the pressure value by 101. <em><u>84/101</u></em>
