Bases are iconic compounds that produce negative hydroxide ions (OH-) when dissolved in water. Bases taste bitter, feel slippery, and conduct electricity when dissolved in water.... Bases turn red litmus paper blue. The strength of bases is measured on the pH scale.
The equation to calculate Density is Mass / Volume. You are given that the density is 5.45 and the mass is 65; 5.45 = 65 / v. So v = 65 / 5.45; v = 11.93 mL (or if you want your answer to consider significant figures, v = 12 mL).
They must make sure that all things pointed out are fact, not opinion.
Answer:
a) K = 5.3175
b) ΔG = 3.2694
Explanation:
a) ΔG° = - RT Ln K
∴ T = 25°C ≅ 298 K
∴ R = 8.314 E-3 KJ/K.mol
∴ ΔG° = - 4.140 KJ/mol
⇒ Ln K = - ( ΔG° ) / RT
⇒ Ln K = - ( -4.140 KJ/mol ) / (( 8.314 E-3 KJ/K.mol )( 298 K ))
⇒ Ln K = 1.671
⇒ K = 5.3175
b) A → B
∴ T = 37°C = 310 K
∴ [A] = 1.6 M
∴ [B] = 0.45 M
∴ K = [B] / [A]
⇒ K = (0.45 M)/(1.6 M)
⇒ K = 0.28125
⇒ Ln K = - 1.2685
∴ ΔG = - RT Ln K
⇒ ΔG = - ( 8.314 E-3 KJ/K.mol )( 310 K )( - 1.2685 )
⇒ ΔG = 3.2694
<span>Fungal diseases are difficult to treat mainly because they are eukaryotic organisms just like us humans, and therefore have less differences for drugs to target without harming the human body as well. Most antibiotics target e.g. the peptidoglycan layer in the bacterial (a prokaryote) cell wall, which is a safe target since eukaryotic cells do not have equivalent structures. Similarly many differences in metabolic pathways between humans and prokaryotes is often targeted by antibiotics, but metabolism of fungi and humans is much more uniform, and hence it is difficult to exclusively target the fungi only.
HOPE THIS HELPS!
