What does the MC1R gene code for

zlopas [31]

The MC1R gene provides instructions for making a protein called the melanocortin 1 receptor. This receptor plays an important role in normal pigmentation. The receptor is primarily located on the surface of melanocytes, which are specialized cells that produce a pigment called melanin.

Write a balanced half-reaction for the reduction of dichromate ion to chromium ion in acidic aqueous solution. Be sure to add ph

Serhud [2]

Answer:

The balanced half-reaction for the reduction of dichromate ion to chromium ion in acidic aqueous solution:

$Cr_2O_7^{2-}(aq)+14H^+(aq)+6e^-\rightarrow 2Cr^{3+}(aq)+7H_2O(l)$

Explanation:

The reaction :

$Cr_2O_7^{2-}\rightarrow Cr^{3+}$

Balancing of reaction in an acidic medium:

Step 1: Balance the atoms in the reaction:

$Cr_2O_7^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow 2Cr^{3+}(aq)$

Step 2: Balance oxygen atom by adding water on the side where no oxygen or less oxygen atom is present;

$Cr_2O_7^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow 2Cr^{3+}(aq)+7H_2O(l)$

Step 3: Balance the hydrogen atom by adding hydrogen ions on the side where water is absent:

$Cr_2O_7^{2-}(aq)+14H^+(aq)\rightarrow 2Cr^{3+}(aq)+7H_2O(l)$

Step 4: Now balance charge by adding electrons on the side where more positive charge is present

$Cr_2O_7^{2-}(aq)+14H^+(aq)+6e^-\rightarrow 2Cr^{3+}(aq)+7H_2O(l)$

The balanced half-reaction for the reduction of dichromate ion to chromium ion in acidic aqueous solution:

$Cr_2O_7^{2-}(aq)+14H^+(aq)+6e^-\rightarrow 2Cr^{3+}(aq)+7H_2O(l)$

In which location would an ocean ridge most likely be located

Nastasia [14]

An ocean ridge is an underwater mountain system which is the result of tectonic plate movement. Its formation involves two processes: ridge-push and slab pull. The former occurs when the growing bulk of the ridge pushes the rest of the tectonic plate away from the ridge. Oftentimes, they go towards a subduction zone. In this zone, the latter, which is the slab pull comes into effect. This is the weight of the tectonic plate subducted or pulled down below the overying plate tagging along the rest of the plate behind it.

They are generally located halfway between two continents.

If a reaction mixture contains only N2O and NO2 at partial pressures of 1.0 atm each, the reaction will be spontaneous until som

Vesna [10]

Answer:

Temperature required = 923K

Explanation:

The question is incomplete as there are some details that has to be given. details like the values of the standard enthalpies and entropies of the reactants and product as this is needed to calculate the actual value of the standard enthalpies and standard entropies of the reaction. I was able to get those values from literature and then calculated what needs to be calculated.

From there, I was able to use the equation that shows the relationship between, gibb's free energy, enthalpy, entropy and temperature. The necessary mathematical manipulation were done and the values were plugged in to get the temperature required to make the reaction spontaneous.

A few notes on the Gibb's free energy.

The Gibb's free energy also referred to as the gibb's function represented with letter G. it is the amount of useful work obtained from a system at constant temperature and pressure. The standard gibb's free energy on the other hand is a state function represented as Delta-G, as it depends on the initial and final states of the system.

The spontaneity of a reaction is explained by the standard gibb's free energy.

If Delta-G = -ve ( the reaction is spontaneous)

if Delta -G = +ve ( the reaction is non-spontaneous)

if Delta-G = 0 ( the reaction is at equilibrium)

The step by step calculations is done as shown in the attachment.
