Answer:

Ka=4.71x10^{-4}

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the Henderson-Hasselbach equation, it is possible to write:

pH=pKa+log(\frac{[A^-]}{[HA]} )

Next, since we are given the pH and the [A–]/[HA] ratio, we can solve for the pKa as shown below:

pKa=pH-log(\frac{[A^-]}{[HA]} )

Now, we plug in the values to obtain:

pKa=3.92-log(0.41 )\\\\pKa=3.33

Next, Ka is:

Ka=10^{-pKa}=10^{-3.33}\\\\Ka=4.71x10^{-4}

Best regards!

A chemical reaction is shown below:
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

Mass = 8.46 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of water produced = ?

Mass of glucose = 20 g

Mass of oxygen = 15 g

Solution:

Chemical equation:

C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂     →   6H₂O + 6CO₂

Number of moles of glucose:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 20 g/ 180.16 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.11 mol

Number of moles of oxygen:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 15 g/ 32 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.47 mol

now we will compare the moles of water with oxygen and glucose.

               C₆H₁₂O₆           :            H₂O

                   1                   :              6

                 0.11                :           6/1×0.11 = 0.66

                   O₂               :            H₂O

                   6                   :              6

                 0.47                :           0.47

Less number of moles of water are produced by oxygen thus it will limit the yield of water and act as limiting reactant.

Mass of water produced:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.47 mol  ×18 g/mol

Mass = 8.46 g

prohojiy [21]

Hey there!:

From the given data ;

Reaction  volume = 1 mL , enzyme content = 10 ug ( 5 ug in 2 mg/mL )

Enzyme mol Wt = 45,000 , therefore [E]t is 10 ug/mL , this need to be express as "M" So:

[E]t in molar  = g/L * mol/g

[E]t  = 0.01 g/L * 1 / 45,000

[E]t = 2.22*10⁻⁷

Vmax = 0.758 umole/min/ per mL

= 758 mmole/L/min

=758000 mole/L/min => 758000 M

Therefore :

Kcat = Vmax/ [E]t

Kcat = 758000 / 2.2*10⁻⁷ M

Kcat = 3.41441 *10¹² / min

Kcat = 3.41441*10¹² / 60 per sec

Kcat = 5.7*10¹⁰ s⁻¹

Hence   kcat of   xyzase is  5.7*10¹⁰ s⁻¹


Hope that helps!
