Part A: You are given a beaker containing a solution of an enzyme that hydrolyzes adenosine triphosphate (ATP) while it generate

s a lot of heat. You add a substantial amount of the sodium salt of ATP, and you measure the temperature of the beaker, and determine that nothing is happening. The enzyme is not performing the reaction. What is a reasonable chemical to add to the solution to get the enzyme to proceed with the hydrolysis of adenosine triphosphate?
Sulfur oxide,
Iron chloride,
magnesium chloride,
or add more sodium ATP.
Part B: You are investigating the reduction of oxygen that is performed by cytochrome c oxidase. As you start the reaction in a slightly acidic aqueous buffer with 2 mM Cu2SO4 and bubbling oxygen into the buffer. As the reaction proceeds, the solution slowly turns blue, what is happening?
a) Ozone is formed. This causes the solution to turn blue.
b) The copper is getting oxidized from Cu+ to Cu2+ and turns blue.
c) The cytochrome c oxidase protein is decomposing down to a blue product.
d) The pH of the solution is changing. Cu2SO4 is a pH indicator that turns blue when a solution becomes basic.
Part C: In the previous reaction, if you add a small amount of cyanide before adding the
Cu2SO4, the solution does not turn blue. What is a reasonable explanation?
a) The cyanide ion displaces the copper ions in the cytochrome c oxidase and stops the redox reaction.
b) The cyanide ion keeps the pH of the solution high. So the Cu2SO4 pH indicator does not show the decrease in pH.
c) The cyanide ion prevents the formation of ozone.

Answer:

1) magnesium chloride

2) b) The copper is getting oxidized from Cu+ to Cu2+ and turns blue.

Explanation:

The work published by David N. Frick, Sukalyani Banik, and Ryan S. Rypma in J Mol Biol. 2007 Jan 26; 365(4): 1017–1032 clearly shows that divalent metal ions of group 2 such as Mg^2+ play an important role in ATP hydrolysis. Addition of EDTA decreased the rate of hydrolysis of ATP (due to sequestration of the divalent ion of group 2) indicating an active participation of divalent ions in the process.

2) The copper I ion is colourless because it is a d^10 specie. However, when it is oxidized to Cu^2+, a blue colour appears in the solution.

The limiting reactant, O2, can form up to 2.7 mol Al2O3. What mass of Al2O3 forms?
Margaret [11]

Answer:

280 g Al₂O₃

Explanation:

To find the mass, you need to multiply the given value by the molar mass. This will cause the conversion because the molar mass exists as a ratio; technically, the ratio states that there are 101.96 grams per every 1 mole Al₂O₃. It is important to arrange the ratio in a way that allows for the cancellation of units. In this case, the desired unit (grams) should be in the numerator. The final answer should have 2 sig figs to reflect the given value (2.7 mol).

Molar Mass (Al₂O₃): 101.96 g/mol

2.7 moles Al₂O₃          101.96 g
------------------------  x  -------------------  = 275 g Al₂O₃  = 280 g Al₂O₃
                                     1 mole

In the titration of 50. 0 mL of 0. 400 M HCOOH with 0. 150 M LiOH, how many mL of LiOH are required to reach the equivalence poi
mart [117]

The volume of the 0.15 M LiOH solution required to react with 50 mL of 0.4 M HCOOH to the equivalence point is 133.3 mL

<h3>Balanced equation </h3>

HCOOH + LiOH —> HCOOLi + H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

The mole ratio of the acid, HCOOH (nA) = 1

The mole ratio of the base, LiOH (nB) = 1

<h3>How to determine the volume of LiOH </h3>
  • Molarity of acid, HCOOH (Ma) = 0.4 M
  • Volume of acid, HCOOH (Va) = 50 mL
  • Molarity of base, LiOH (Mb) = 0.15 M
  • Volume of base, LiOH (Vb) =?

MaVa / MbVb = nA / nB

(0.4 × 50) / (0.15 × Vb) = 1

20 / (0.15 × Vb) = 1

Cross multiply

0.15 × Vb = 20

Divide both side by 0.15

Vb = 20 / 0.15

Vb = 133.3 mL

Thus, the volume of the LiOH solution needed is 133.3 mL
