What biological factors and/or actions contribute to increases in entropy?

Chemistry
1 answer:
vlada-n [284]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

If you increase temperature, you increase entropy. (1) More energy put into a system excites the molecules and the amount of random activity. (2) As a gas expands in a system, entropy increases.

Rhenium has two naturally occurring isotopes Re - 185 with a natural abundance of 37 40%, and Re - 187 with a natural abundance
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

individual isotopes

Re 185 = 139.094

Re 187 = 232.815

Explanation:Correcting the typo error for natural abundance as 37 40 as 37.40 and 62 60 as  62.60

Answer is found as follows

For Re 185 natural abundance  37.40%

  371.9087 x 37.40/100 = 139.0938538

six significant figures after rounding off = 139.094

For Re 187  natural abundance 62.60

371.9087 x 62.60/100 = 232.8148462

six significant figures after rounding off = 232.815

The p K a of lysine's carboxyl group, amino group, and side chain are 2.2, 9.0, and 10.5, respectively. If lysine is in a pH 13
Inessa [10]

Answer:

The net charge on each lysine molecule would be -1.

Explanation:

  • <u>When the pH is above 2.2</u> the deprotonated form of the carboxylic acid is more present, while the amino group and side chain (which is also amino) remain protonated (with a positive charge):

R-COOH ↔ R-COO⁻

R-NH₃⁺

R'-NH₃⁺

Net charge = +1

  • <u>When pH is above 9.0</u>, the carboxyl group remains deprotonated, while the amino group is deprotonated and the side chain is protonated:

R-COOH ↔ R-COO⁻

R-NH₂

R'-NH₃⁺

Net charge = 0

  • <u>When pH is above 10.5</u>, the carboxyl group remains deprotonated, while both the amino group and the side chain are deprotonated:

R-COOH ↔ R-COO⁻

R-NH₂

R'-NH₂

Net charge = -1

So at pH=13 (which is above 10.5) the net charge is -1.

Consider the following molecules and the description of the bonding present in each: CH3CH2CH2CH3CH3CH2CH2CH3 (C−CC−C and C−HC−H
denis23 [38]

CH3CH2CH2CH3 < CH3CH2CHO < CH3CHOHCH3

Explanation:

Boiling point trend of Butane, Propan-1-ol and Propanal.

Butane is a member of the CnH2n+2 homologous series is an alkane. Alkanes have C-H and C-C bonds which have Van der waals dispersion forces which are temporary dipole-dipole forces (forces caused by the electron movement in a corner of the atom). This bond is weak but increases as the carbon chain/molecule increases.

In Propan-1-ol(Primaryalcohol), there is a hydrogen bond present in the -OH group. Hydrogen bond is caused by the attraction of hydrogen to a highly electronegative element like Cl-, O- etc. This bond is stronger than dispersion forces because of the relative energy required to break the hydrogen bond. Alcohols (CnH2n+1OH) also experience van der waals dispersion forces on its C-C chain and C-H so as the Carbon chain increases the boiling point increases in the homologous series.

Propanal which is an Aldehyde (Alkanal) with the general formula CnH2n+1CHO. This molecule has a C-O, C-C and C-H bonds only. If you notice, the Oxygen is not bonded to the Hydrogen so there is no hydrogen bond but the C-O bond has a permanent dipole-dipole force caused by the electronegativity of oxygen which is bonded to carbon. It also has van der waals dispersion forces caused by the C-C and C-H as the carbon chain increases down the homologous series. The permanent dipole-dipole forces are not as easy to break as van der waals forces.

In conclusion, the hydrogen bonds present in alcohols are stronger than the permanent dipole-dipole bonds in the aldehyde and the van der waals forces in alkanes (irrespective of the carbon chain in Butane). So Butane < Propanal < Propan-1-ol
