The atomic mass or relative isotopic mass refers to the mass of a single particle, and therefore is tied to a certain specific isotope of an element. The dimensionless standard atomic weight instead refers to the AVERAGE of atomic mass values of a typical naturally-occurring mixture of isotopes for a sample of an element.
You can count it by yourself using formula

m = ({first isotopic distribution%}× {first atomic.mass})+ ({second isotopic distribution%}× {second atomic.mass}) / {100}

The polarity of a bond between two elements can be best determined by.
kompoz [17]

The polarity of a bond between two elements can be best determined by difference in the values of electronegativity.

<h3>Determination of polarity of bond</h3>

The polarity of a covalent bond can be determined by determining the difference in electronegativity between the two bonded atoms. Electronegativity is defined as the tendency of an atom to attract electrons to itself.

So we can conclude that the polarity of a bond between two elements can be best determined by difference in the values of electronegativity.

The specific spatial arrangement of amino acid residues that are close to each other in the polypeptide chain is called______the
natulia [17]

Answer:

c. tertiary.

Explanation:

In this case, we can review the definition of each level of structuration in the proteins:

<u>Primary structure</u>

<u />

In the primary structure, the amino acids are linked by peptide bonds. That is, the order of the amino acids is the criterion that defines this type of structure.

<u>Secondary structure</u>

<u />

In the secondary structure, we have to look at the way in which the protein is folded. The options are:

  -) Beta-laminar: A structure in which the protein has a planar shape.

  -) Alpha-helix: A structure in which the protein has a cross-strand form.

<u>Tertiary structure</u>

<u />

In the tertiary structure, the R groups that the amino acids have in the primary structure can generate interactions with each other. Interactions such as hydrogen bridges, dipole-dipole, hydrophobic interactions. This makes the protein have a very specific three-dimensional structure, on which its function depends.

<u>Quaternary structure</u>

<u />

In the quaternary structure, several subunits may be attached, or there may be prostatic groups (metals that can help to attach various protein units).

With all these in mind, the deffinition that fits with the description in the question is the <u>tertiary structure.</u>

I hope it helps!

An analytical chemist is titrating of a solution of propionic acid with a solution of 224.9 ml of a 0.6100M solution of propioni
Svetllana [295]

<u>Answer:</u> The pH of acid solution is 4.58

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}    .....(1)

  • <u>For KOH:</u>

Molarity of KOH solution = 1.1000 M

Volume of solution = 41.04 mL

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

1.1000M=\frac{\text{Moles of KOH}\times 1000}{41.04}\\\\\text{Moles of KOH}=\frac{1.1000\times 41.04}{1000}=0.04514mol

  • <u>For propanoic acid:</u>

Molarity of propanoic acid solution = 0.6100 M

Volume of solution = 224.9 mL

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

0.6100M=\frac{\text{Moles of propanoic acid}\times 1000}{224.9}\\\\\text{Moles of propanoic acid}=\frac{0.6100\times 224.9}{1000}=0.1372mol

The chemical reaction for propanoic acid and KOH follows the equation:

                 C_2H_5COOH+KOH\rightarrow C_2H_5COOK+H_2O

<u>Initial:</u>          0.1372         0.04514  

<u>Final:</u>           0.09206          -                0.04514

Total volume of solution = [224.9 + 41.04] mL = 265.94 mL = 0.26594 L     (Conversion factor:  1 L = 1000 mL)

To calculate the pH of acidic buffer, we use the equation given by Henderson Hasselbalch:

pH=pK_a+\log(\frac{[\text{salt}]}{[acid]})

pH=pK_a+\log(\frac{[C_2H_5COOK]}{[C_2H_5COOH]})

We are given:  

pK_a = negative logarithm of acid dissociation constant of propanoic acid = 4.89

[C_2H_5COOK]=\frac{0.04514}{0.26594}

[C_2H_5COOH]=\frac{0.09206}{0.26594}

pH = ?  

Putting values in above equation, we get:

pH=4.89+\log(\frac{(0.04514/0.26594)}{(0.09206/0.26594)})\\\\pH=4.58

Hence, the pH of acid solution is 4.58
