Dioxin, produced as a by-product of various industrial chemical processes, is suspected of contributing to the development of ca

ncer and birth defects in animals and humans. it apparently acts by entering cells by simple diffusion and binding to proteins in the cytoplasm, then altering the pattern of gene expression. which of the following are likely to be the cytoplasmic proteins to which dioxin binds? a. nucleosomes
b. dna polymerases
c. enhancersd. transcription factors
e. growth factor receptors

Answer:

E

Explanation:

Why can a signaling molecule cause different responses in different cells? Different cells have membrane receptors that bind to different sides of the signaling molecule. The transduction process is unique to each cell type; to respond to a signal, different cells require only a similar membrane receptor

The characteristic odor of pineapple is due to ethyl butyrate, a compound containing carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Combustion of
gavmur [86]

<u>Answer:</u> The empirical formula for the given compound is C_3H_6O

<u>Explanation:</u>

The chemical equation for the combustion of hydrocarbon having carbon, hydrogen and oxygen follows:

C_xH_yO_z+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O

where, 'x', 'y' and 'z' are the subscripts of Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen respectively.

We are given:

Conversion factor:  1 g = 1000 mg

Mass of CO_2=6.32mg=0.00632g

Mass of H_2O=2.58g=0.00258g

Mass of compound = 2.78 mg = 0.00278 g

We know that:

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

  • <u>For calculating the mass of carbon:</u>

In 44g of carbon dioxide, 12 g of carbon is contained.

So, in 0.00632 g of carbon dioxide, \frac{12}{44}\times 0.00632=0.00172g of carbon will be contained.

  • <u>For calculating the mass of hydrogen:</u>

In 18g of water, 2 g of hydrogen is contained.

So, in 0.00258 g of water, \frac{2}{18}\times 0.00258=0.000286g of hydrogen will be contained.

  • Mass of oxygen in the compound = (0.00278) - (0.00172 + 0.000286) = 0.000774 g

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

  • <u>Step 1:</u> Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Carbon =\frac{\text{Given mass of Carbon}}{\text{Molar mass of Carbon}}=\frac{0.00172g}{12g/mole}=1.43\times 10^{-4}moles

Moles of Hydrogen = \frac{\text{Given mass of Hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of Hydrogen}}=\frac{0.000286g}{1g/mole}=2.86\times 10^{-4}moles

Moles of Oxygen = \frac{\text{Given mass of oxygen}}{\text{Molar mass of oxygen}}=\frac{0.000774g}{16g/mole}=4.83\times 10^{-5}moles

  • <u>Step 2:</u> Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 4.83\times 10^{-5}mol

For Carbon = \frac{1.43\times 10^{-4}}{4.83\times 10^{-5}}=2.96\approx 3

For Hydrogen  = \frac{2.86\times 10^{-4}}{4.83\times 10^{-5}}=5.92\approx 6

For Oxygen  = \frac{4.83\times 10^{-5}}{4.83\times 10^{-5}}=1

  • <u>Step 3:</u> Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of C : H : O = 3 : 6 : 1

Hence, the empirical formula for the given compound is C_3H_{6}O_1=C_3H_6O
