Answer

The components of the r group of amino acid structure varies among different amino acids

Explanation

As the functional group for amino acids is as:

R-CH-COOH

NH2

only R differs so amino acids also differs. If R is “H” then amino acid is glycine and if R is “CH3” then amino acid is alanine. Hence, R is different for different amino acids. Other components as alpha carbon ( C ), carboxyl group ( COOH ) and amino group ( NH2 ) is fixed for every amino acid.

What was the key design change for hfc-134a a/c systems versus CFC 12 a/c systems

BabaBlast [244]

Answer is: key design change for HFC-134a A/C systems versus CFC-12 A/C systems was quick couple service fitting and that design reduce venting and mixing of refrigerants during service.

<span> Level of contamination is also reduced and the emission of refrigerants and greenhouse gases (sulfur dioxide, carbon dioxide) is also reduced.</span>

Answer: Mass of $CO_2$ produced in this reaction was 6.56 grams

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

$CaCO_3(s)+2HCl(aq)\rightarrow H_2O(l)+CO_2(g)+CaCl_2(aq)$

Mass or reactants = Mass of $CaCO_3$ + mass of $HCl$ = 16.00 + 64.80 = 80.80 g

Mass of products = mass of aqueous solution + mass of $CO_2$ + = 74.24 + x g

Mass or reactants = Mass of products

80.80 g = 74.24 + x g

x = 6.56 g

Thus mass of $CO_2$ produced in this reaction was 6.56 grams
