<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

[Given] 25.0 g Au

[Solve] moles Au

<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>

[PT] Molar Mass of Au - 196.97 g/mol

<u>Step 3: Convert</u>

  1. [DA] Set up:                                                                                                     \displaystyle 25.0 \ g \ Au(\frac{1 \ mol \ Au}{196.97 \ g \ Au})
  2. [DA] Multiply/Divide [Cancel out units:                                                          \displaystyle 0.126923 \ mol \ Au

<u>Step 4: Check</u>

<em>Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 3 sig figs.</em>

0.126923 mol Au ≈ 0.127 mol Au

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 0.127 \ mol \ Au}}

Explanation:

To convert from mass to moles, the molar mass must be used. This can be found on the Periodic Table.

  • Gold (Au): 196.96657 g/mol

Use this number as a ratio.

\frac {196.96657 \ g\ Au }{1 \ mol \ Au}

Multiply by the given number of grams.

25.0 \ g \ Au*\frac {196.96657 \ g\ Au }{1 \ mol \ Au}

Flip the fraction so the grams of gold will cancel.

25.0 \ g \ Au*\frac {1 \ mol \ Au}{196.96657 \ g\ Au }

25.0*\frac {1 \ mol \ Au}{196.96657  }

\frac {25.0 \ mol \ Au}{196.96657  }

0.1269250919 \ mol \ Au

The original measurement has 3 significant figures, so the answer must have the same. For the number we calculated that is the thousandth place. The 9 in the ten thousandth place tells us to round the 6 to a 7.

0.127 \ mol \ Au

25.0 grams of gold is about 0.127 moles of gold.

A binding protein binds to a ligand l with a kd of 400 nm what is the concentration of ligand when y is 0.25
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

The answer is 7600 nm.

Explanation:

As, Y = 0.25 = [ L ÷ (400 + (L)]

0.95 x 400 + 0.25 [ L] = [ L ]

380.25  = [ L ] - 0.95 [ L ]

              = 0.05 [L]

[L] = 380 ÷ 0.05 = 7600nm
