Answer:
The percent by mass of 3.55 g NaCl dissolved in 88 g water is 3.88%
Explanation:
When a solute dissolves in a solvent, the mass of the resulting solution is a sum of the mass of the solute and the solvent.
A percentage is a way of expressing a quantity as a fraction of 100. In this case, the percentage by mass of a solution is the number of grams of solute per 100 grams of solution and can be represented mathematically as:

In this way it allows to precisely establish the concentration of solutions and express them in terms of percentages.
In this case:
- mass of solute: 3.55 g
- mass of solution: 3.55 g + 88 g= 91.55 g
Replacing:

Percent by mass= 3.88%
<u><em>The percent by mass of 3.55 g NaCl dissolved in 88 g water is 3.88%</em></u>
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
.75 = 1/2^(40/h)
log .75 / ( log 1/2) = 40 / h
<u>h = half life = 96.37683 min</u>
Answer:
0!
Explanation:
- You need to search your pKa values for Asn (2.14, 8.75), Gly (2.35, 9.78) and Leu(2.33, 9.74), the first value corresponding to -COOH, the second to -NH3 (a third value would correspond to an R group, but in this case that does not apply), and we'll build a table to find the charges for your possible dissociated groups at indicated pH (7), we need to remember that having a pKa lower than the pH will give us a negative charge, having a pKa bigger than pH will give us a positive charge:
-COOH -NH3
pH 7------------------------------------------------------
Asn - +
Gly - +
Leu - +
- Now that we have our table we'll sketch our peptide's structure:
<em>HN-Asn-Gly-Leu-COOH</em>
This will allow us to see what groups will be free to react to the pH's value, and which groups are not reacting to pH because are forming the bond between amino acids. In this particular example only -NH group in Ans and -COOH in Leu are exposed to pH, we'll look for these charges in the table and add them to find the net charge:
+1 (HN-Asn)
-1 (Leu-COOH)
=0
The net charge is 0!
