Answer : The molar mass of protein is, 1.38\times 10^4g/mol

Explanation :

Formula used :

\pi =CRT\\\\\pi=\frac{w\times 1000}{M\times V}RT

where,

\pi = osmotic pressure  = 0.138 atm

C = concentration

R = solution constant  = 0.0821 L.atm/mol.K

T = temperature  = 28^oC=273+28=301K

w = mass of protein subunit = 0.155 g

M = molar mass of protein subunit = ?

V = volume of solution  = 2.00 mL

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

\pi=\frac{w\times 1000}{M\times V}RT

0.138atm=\frac{0.155g\times 1000}{M\times 2.00ml}\times (0.0821L.atm/mole.K)\times (301K)

M=13878.17g/mol=1.38\times 10^4g/mol

Therefore, the molar mass of protein is, 1.38\times 10^4g/mol

The energy required to ionize boron is 801 kJ/mol. You may want to reference (Pages 93 - 98) Section 2.5 while completing this p
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

The frequency is  f =  2,01 * 10^{15} \  Hz

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The energy required to ionize boron is E_b  =  801 KJ/mol

Generally the ionization energy of boron pre atom is mathematically represented as

     E_a  =  \frac{E_b}{N_A}

Here  N_A is the Avogadro's constant with value N_A  =  6.022*10^{23}

So

      E_a  =  \frac{801}{6.022*10^{23}}

=>     E_a  =  1.330 *10^{-18} \  J/atom

Generally the energy required to liberate one electron from an atom is equivalent to the ionization energy per atom and this mathematically represented as

       E =  hf  =  E_a

=>     hf  =  E_a

Here h is the Planks constant with value h = 6.626 *10^{-34}

So

       f =  \frac{1.330 *10^{-18}}{ 6.626 *10^{-34}}

=>      f =  2,01 * 10^{15} \  Hz

Iron reacts with cl2 according to the equation 2 fe(s) + 3 cl2(g) ? 2 fecl3(s). how many moles of cl2 is needed to react with 4.
IceJOKER [234]
2Fe + 3Cl₂ ---> 2FeCl₃

4.4mol of Fe, you have a 2:3 ratio of Fe to Cl₂ so divide 4.4/2 = 2.2 and multiply by three 2.2 x 3 = 6.6mol of Cl₂

hope that helps :)

In a titration of 0.5 M HCl and an unknown concentration NaOH, 25.0 ml of NaOH was required to completely neutralize 25.0 ml of
baherus [9]
When an acid is neutralized by a base, that means moles of H+ = moles of OH-

moles of H+ = 0.5 M * 0.025 L HCl = 0.0125 moles H+

moles of OH- should be equal to 0.0125 moles, so
0.0125 moles = (x) * 0.025 L NaOH

x is the concentration of NaOH, which we want to find.

x = 0.5 M

The correct answer is C) 0.5 M.

Calculate the percent activity of the radioactive isotope strontium-89 remaining after 5 half-lives.
maria [59]
The answer to this question would be: 3.125%

Half-life is the time needed for a radioactive molecule to decay half of its mass. In this case, the strontium-89 is already gone past 5 half lives. Then, the percentage of the mass left after 5 half-lives should be:
100%*(1/2^5)= 100%/32=3..125%

Write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction between aqueous sodium carbonate and
ioda

Answer:

2HNO3 (aq) + Na2CO3 (aq) → 2NaNO3 (aq) + CO2 (g) + H2O (l)

Explanation:

This question is asking to write and balance an equation between between aqueous sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) and aqueous nitric acid (HNO3). The equation is as follows:

HNO3 (aq) + Na2CO3 (aq) → NaNO3 (aq) + CO2 (g) + H2O (l)

However, this equation is not balanced as the number of atoms of each element must be the same on both sides of the equation. To balance the equation, one will make use of coefficients as follows:

2HNO3 (aq) + Na2CO3 (aq) → 2NaNO3 (aq) + CO2 (g) + H2O (l)
