A scientist is conducting a Sanger's sequencing experiment to determine the number of polypeptides present in an oligomeric prot

ein. The molecular weight of the protein is 18000 g/mol . After the reaction of 520 mg of the protein with 1‑fluoro‑2,4‑dinitrobenzene, the peptide bonds were hydrolyzed with an acid. As a result, the scientist obtained 39 mg of 2,4‑dinitrophenyl serine. What is the number of the polypeptide chains present in the oligomer?

Answer:

Depends on molecule.

Explanation:

The number of the polypeptide chains present in the oligomer depends on the molecule. Some molecules have more polypeptide chains whereas some of them have less polypeptide chains. For example, Hemoglobin is a oligomer that consists of four Polypeptide Chains, two of these Polypeptide Chains are α-globin molecules, each comprise of 141 amino acids, and the other two are (β, γ, δ, or ε) globins, each consist of 146 amino acids.

The following data is given to find the formula of a Hydrate:
umka21 [38]

The masses can be found by substractions:

  • Mass of CaSO₄.H2O (hydrate):

16.05 g - 13.56 g = 2.49 g

  • Mass of CaSO₄ anhydrate:

15.07 g - 13.56 g = 1.51 g

  • The mass of water is equal to the difference between the mass of the hydrate and the mass of the anhydrate:

2.49 g - 1.51 g = 0.98 g

  • The percent of water is found by the formula:

massWater ÷ massHydrate * 100%

0.98 g ÷ 2.49 g * 100% = 39.36%

  • The mole of water is calculated using water's molecular weight (18g/mol):

0.98 g ÷ 18 g/mol = 0.054 mol water

  • A similar procedure is made for the mole of salt (CaSO₄ = 136.14 g/mol)

1.51 g ÷ 136.14 g/mol = 0.011 mol CaSO₄

  • The ratio of mole of water to mole of anhydrate is:

0.054 mol water / 0.011 mol CaSO₄ = 0.49

In other words the molecular formula for the hydrate salt is CaSO₄·0.5H₂O

What gas is used in respiration​
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

Los pulmones y el aparato respiratorio nos permiten respirar. Permiten la entrada de oxígeno en nuestros cuerpos (inspiración o inhalación) y expulsan el dióxido de carbono (expiración o exhalación). Este intercambio de oxígeno y dióxido de carbono recibe el nombre de "respiración"

La función del aparato respiratorio es mover dos gases: <em>el oxígeno y el dióxido de carbono</em>

What is the percentage by mass of sulphur in Al2(SO4)3[A12SO4 =<br>342g/mol, S = 32]​
valentinak56 [21]

Answer: The percentage by mass of sulphur in Al_2(SO_4)_3 is 9.36%

Explanation:

Mass percent of an element is the ratio of mass of that element by the total mass expressed in terms of percentage.

{\text {Mass percentage}}=\frac{\text {mass of sulphur}}{\text {Total mass}}\times 100\%

Given: mass of sulphur = 32 g/mol

mass of Al_2(SO_4)_3 = 342 g/mol

Putting in the values we get:

{\text {Mass percentage}}=\frac{32g/mol}{342g/mol}\times 100\%=9.36\%

The percentage by mass of sulphur in Al_2(SO_4)_3 is 9.36%
