The thermite reaction, in which powdered aluminum reacts with iron oxide, is highly exothermic: 2Al(s) + F e2O3 (s)→A l2O 3 (s) 

+ 2Fe(s) Use standard enthalpies of formation to find ΔH ∘ rxn for the thermite reaction.

For this problem, we use the Hess' Law.

ΔHrxn = ∑(ν*Hf of products) - ∑(ν*Hf of reactants)

The ν represents the corresponding stoichiometric coefficients of the substances, while Hf is the heat of formation. For pure elements, Hf = 0.

Hf of Al₂O₃ = <span>−1676.4 kJ/mol
</span>Hf of Fe₂O₃ = <span>-826.0 kJ/mol

Thus,

</span>ΔHrxn = 1*−1676.4 kJ/mol + 1*-826.0 kJ/mol
<em>ΔHrxn = -2502.4 kJ/mol</em>

What are the units of k in the following rate law?
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

B. \frac{1}{M^{2} s }

Explanation:

The unit for rate is M/s while the unit for each molecule should be M. You can find the unit for k by putting the units for rate and the molecules into the equation

rate= k{X][Y]

M/s= k * M^{2} * M^{1}

k= (M/s) / (M^{3})

k= \frac{1}{M^{2} s }

You can also use this predetermined formula to solve this problem faster: k= \frac{M^{1-n} }{s }

Where n is the number of molecule. There are 3 molecule(2X and 1Y) so n=3, so

k= \frac{M^{1-n} }{s }

k= \frac{M^{1-3} }{s }= \frac{m^{-2}}{s}= \frac{1}{M^{2} s }

Indicate the peptides that would result from cleavage by the indicated reagent: a. Gly-Lys-Leu-Ala-Cys-Arg-Ala-Phe by trypsin b.
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

a. Gly-Lys + Leu-Ala-Cys-Arg + Ala-Phe

b. Glu-Ala-Phe + Gly-Ala-Tyr

Explanation:

In this case, we have to remember which peptidic bonds can break each protease:

-) <u>Trypsin</u>

It breaks selectively the peptidic bond in the carbonyl group of lysine or arginine.

-) <u>Chymotrypsin</u>

It breaks selectively the peptidic bond in the carbonyl group of phenylalanine, tryptophan, or tyrosine.

With this in mind in "peptide a", the peptidic bonds that would be broken are the ones in the <u>"Lis"</u> and <u>"Arg"</u> (See figure 1).

In "peptide b", the peptidic bond that would be broken is the one in the <u>"Phe"</u> (See figure 2). The second amino acid that can be broken is <u>tyrosine</u>, but this amino acid is placed in the <u>C terminal spot</u>, therefore will not be involved in the <u>hydrolysis</u>.

Use the conversion factor 1 amu = 1.66054× 10–24 g to answer the following questions. a) 1.67 x 10-24 g of neurons is how many (
sergij07 [2.7K]
You can use the mass of neuron divided by the mass of conversion factor: 1.67*10^(-25)/(1.66054*10^(-24))≈1 amu. So the answer is 1 amu.
