The protein lysozyme unfolds at a transition temperature of 75.5°C, and the standard enthalpy of transition is 509 kJ mol-1. Cal

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

0.4774 KJ/K.mol

Explanation:

We are told that the transition at 25.0°C occurs in three steps. Steps i, ii and iii.

Thus;

the entropy of unfolding of lysozyme = ΔS_i + ΔS_ii + ΔS_iii

Now,

C_p,m(unfolded protein) = C_p,m(folded protein) + 6.28 kJ/K.mol

Now, for the first process, ΔS_i is given as;

ΔS_i = C_p,m × In(T2/T1)

We are given;

T1 = 25°C = 25 + 273.15K = 298.15 K

T2 = 75.5°C = 75.5 + 273.15 K=348.65 K

Thus;

ΔS_i = C_p,m × In(348.65/298.15)

Now, for the third process, ΔS_iii is given as;

ΔS_iii = (C_p,m + 6.28 kJ/K.mol) × In(T1/T2)

Thus;

ΔS_iii = (C_p,m + 6.28 kJ/K.mol) × In(298.15/348.65)

Now, we don't know C_pm. So, we have to find a way to eliminate it. We will do it by rewriting In(298.15/348.65) in such a way that when ΔS_iii is added to ΔS_i, C_p,m will cancel out. Thus;

In(298.15/348.65) can also be written as;

In(348.65/298.15)^(-1) or

- In(348.65/298.15)

Thus;

ΔS_iii = - [(C_p,m + 6.28 kJ/K.mol) × In(298.15/348.65)]

Now, let's add ΔS_iii to ΔS_i to get;

ΔS_i + ΔS_iii = [C_p,m × In(348.65/298.15)] + [(-C_p,m - 6.28 kJ/K.mol) × In(348.65/298.15)]

ΔS_i + ΔS_iii = [C_p,m × In(348.65/298.15)] - [C_p,m × In(348.65/298.15)] - [6.28In(348.65/298.15)]

First 2 terms will cancel out to give;

ΔS_i + ΔS_iii = -6.28In(348.65/298.15)

ΔS_i + ΔS_iii = -0.9826 KJ/K.mol

Now,for process ii;

ΔS_ii = standard enthalpy of transition/Transition Temperature

Thus;

ΔS_ii = (509 KJ/K.mol)/348.65

ΔS_ii = 1.46 KJ/K.mol

Thus;

the entropy of unfolding of lysozyme = ΔS_i + ΔS_ii + ΔS_iii = -0.9826 + 1.46 = 0.4774 KJ/K.mol

If 500ml of H₂ gas at 600mmHg and 400ml of CO₂ gas at 700mmHg are mixed in a 1 lit vessel, find the total pressure of mixture of

seraphim [82]

Answer:

Total pressure increased

Explanation:

When gas C is added in the vessel then number of mole increases and number of collision depends on the number of molecules present in the vessel and on adding gas C ,mole also increases hence number of collision increases therefore pressure also increases because number of collision increases.

Total pressure increases.

please hurry! If 3.87g of powdered aluminum oxide is placed in a container containing 5.67g of water, what is the limiting react

VikaD [51]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of aluminium oxide = 3.87g

Mass of water = 5.67g

Unknown:

Limiting reactant = ?

Solution:

The limiting reactant is the reactant in short supply in a chemical reaction. We need to first write the chemical equation and convert the masses given to the number of moles.

Using the number of moles, we can ascertain the limiting reactants;

Al₂O₃ + 3H₂O → 2Al(OH)₃

Number of moles;

Number of moles = $\frac{mass}{molar mass}$

molar mass of Al₂O₃ = (2x27) + 3(16) = 102g/mole

number of moles = $\frac{3.87}{102}$ = 0.04mole

molar mass of H₂O = 2(1) + 16 = 18g/mole

number of moles = $\frac{5.67}{18}$ = 0.32mole

From the reaction equation;

1 mole of Al₂O₃ reacted with 3 moles of H₂O

0.04 mole of Al₂O₃ will react with 3 x 0.04 mole = 0.12 mole of H₂O

But we were given 0.32 mole of H₂O and this is in excess of amount required.

This shows that Al₂O₃ is the limiting reactant

Which of these is an isoelectronic series? 1) na+, k+, rb+, cs+ 2) k+, ca2+, or, s2– 3) na+, mg2+, s2–, cl– 4) li, be, b, c 5) n

ss7ja [257]

An isoelectronic series is where all of the ions listed have the same number of electrons in their atoms. When an atom has net charge of zero or neutral, it has equal number of protons and electrons. Hence, it means that the atomic number = no. of protons = no. of electrons. If these atoms become ions, they gain a net charge of + or -. Positive ions are cations. This means that they readily GIVE UP electrons, whereas negative ions (anions) readily ACCEPT electrons. So, to know which of these are isoelectronic, let's establish first the number of electron in a neutral atom from the periodic table:

Na=11; K=19; Rb=37; Cs = 55; Ca=20; S=16; Mg=12; Li=3; Be=4; B=5; C=6

A. Na⁺: 11-1 = 10 electrons
K⁺: 19 - 1 = 18 electrons
Rb⁺: 37-1 = 36 electrons

B. K⁺: 19 - 1 = 18 electrons
Ca²⁺: 20 - 2 = 18 electrons
S²⁻: 16 +2 = 18 electrons

C. Na⁺: 11-1 = 10 electrons
Mg²⁺: 12 - 2 = 10 electrons
S²⁻: 16 +2 = 18 electrons

D. Li=3 electrons
Be=4 electrons
B=5 electrons
C=6 electrons

The answer is letter B.
