The empirical formula :

C₁₀H₁₆N₄SO₇

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

6.4 g sample

Required

The empirical formula

Solution

mass C :

= 12/44 x 8.37 g

= 2.28

mass H :

= 2/18 x 2.75 g

= 0.305

mass N = 1.06

mass S :

= 32/64 x 1.23

= 0.615

mass O = 6.4 - (2.28+0.305+1.06+0.615) = 2.14 g

Mol ratio :

= C : H : N : S : O

= 2.28/12 : 0.305/1 : 1.06/14 : 0.615/32 : 2.14/16

= 0.19 : 0.305 : 0.076 : 0.019 : 0.133 divided by 0.019

= 10 : 16 : 4 : 1 : 7

The empirical formula :

C₁₀H₁₆N₄SO₇

In the peptide GLVIW, the C-terminal end is ________.
zheka24 [161]
The peptide given above is made up of the following amino acids: glycine [G], leucine [L], valine [V], isoleucine [I] and tryptophan [W]. These amino acids are joined together by amide bond to form peptide. Peptides usually have two terminals, the N terminal and the C terminal. For GLVIW, the C terminal end amino acid is tryptophan, that is the last amino acid on the peptide chain. The N terminal amino acid is glycine, that is, the first amino acid on the peptide chain.
