The disaccharide lactose can be decomposed into its constituent sugars galactose and glucose. This decomposition can be accompli

shed through acid-based hydrolysis or by the enzyme lactase. Lactose intolerance in humans is due to the lack of lactase production by cells in the small intestine. However, the stomach is an acidic environment; therefore, one might expect lactose hydrolysis to still be an efficient process. The following data were obtained on the rate of lactose decomposition as a function of acid and lactose concentration.
Initial Rate (M^-1 s^-1) [Lactose]o (M) [H+](M)
0.00116 0.01 0.001
0.00232 0.02 0.001
0.00464 0.01 0.004


Required:
Using this information, determine the rate law expression for the acid-based hydrolysis of lactose.

Answer:

Rate  = 116m⁻¹s⁻¹[lactose][H]⁺

Explanation:

the formula for rate of reaction is given as

Rate = k[lactose]∧α[H]⁺∧β

we solve for the value of α and β

([lactose]₁/[lactose]₂)∧α

α = \frac{ln\frac{0.00116}{0.00232} }{ln\frac{0.01}{0.02} }

when we divide this equation

α = \frac{ln0.5}{ln0.5}

α = 1

we find β

R₁/R₂ = 0.01/0.02(0.001/0.001)∧β

0.00116/0.00232 = 0.5(1)∧β

β = 1

Rate = k[lactose]∧α[H]⁺∧β

we have to find the value for k

k = 0.00116/0.01(0.001)

k = 0.00116/0.00001

= 116m⁻¹s⁻¹

<u>Rate = 116m⁻¹s⁻¹[lactose][H]⁺</u>

If 1 mol of XO₂ contains the same number of atoms as 60 g of XOs, what is the molar mass of XO₂?
Lena [83]

Answer:

44 grams/mole

Explanation:

<u>If 1 mol of XO₂ contains the same number of atoms as 60 g of XO3, what is the molar mass of XO₂?</u>

<u></u>

60 grams of XO3 is one mole XO3, since it has the same number of atoms as 1 mole of XO2.

Let c be the molar mass of X.  The molar mass of XO3 is comprised of:

X:  c

3O:  3 x 16 = 48

Total molar mass of XO3 is = <u>48 + c</u>

We know that the molar mass of XO3 = 60 g/mole, so:

48 + c  = 60 g/mole

c = 12 g/mole

The molar mass of XO2 would be:

1 X = 12

2 O = 32

Molar mass = 44 grams/mole, same as carbon dioxide.  Carbon's molar mass is 12 grams.

Estimate the heat of neutralization of H3PO4 in kJ/mol given these data: Heat transferred = 2.2 x 102 J Moles of H3PO4 = 1.5 x 1
barxatty [35]
<span>write out the balance equation
3NaOh+H3PO4->Na3PO4+3H2O
You are given everything needed to calculate
q=heat transfer=2.2*10^2,
H3PO4 moles= 1.5*10^-3,
NaOH moles=5.0*10^-3
equation is deltaHneutraliztion=q/Moles of limiting reagent H3PO4 is limiting reagent because lowest moles, and is used up first
Now plug in variables
DeltaH=2.2*10^2(1.5*10^3)= 146.67kj/mole
Notice we had to convert J to kj,</span>

A solution with [ OH] of 5 x 10-3 has a pH of
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

11·699

Explanation:

Given the concentration of hydroxide ion in the solution is 5 × 10^{-3} M

Assuming the temperature at which it is asked to find the pH of the solution be 298 K

<h3>At 298 K the dissociation constant of water is 10^{-14} </h3><h3>∴ pH + pOH = 14 at 298 K</h3><h3>pOH of the solution = -log( concentration of hydroxide ion )</h3>

∴ pOH of the given solution = - log(5 × 10^{-3} = -0·699 + 3 = 2·301

   pH of the given solution = 14 - 2·301 = 11·699

∴ pH of the solution = 11·699
