Answer:

c. By itself, heme is not a good oxygen carrier. It must be part of a larger protein to prevent oxidation of the iron.

e. Both hemoglobin and myoglobin contain a prosthetic group called heme, which contains a central iron ( Fe ) (Fe) atom.

f. Hemoglobin is a heterotetramer, whereas myoglobin is a monomer. The heme prosthetic group is entirely buried within myoglobin.

Explanation:

The differences between hemoglobin and myoglobin are most important at the level of quaternary structure. Hemoglobin is a tetramer composed of two each of two types of closely related subunits, alpha and beta. Myoglobin is a monomer (so it doesn't have a quaternary structure at all). Myoglobin binds oxygen more tightly than does hemoglobin. This difference in binding energy reflects the movement of oxygen from the bloodstream to the cells, from hemoglobin to myoglobin.

Myoglobin binds oxygen

The binding of O 2 to myoglobin is a simple equilibrium reaction:

A large cylindrical tank contains 0.750 m3 of nitrogen gas at 27°C and 7.50 * 103 Pa (absolute pressure). The tank has a tight‐f
Nuetrik [128]

Answer: The answer is 68142.4 Pa

Explanation:

Given that the initial properties of the cylindrical tank are :

Volume V1= 0.750m3

Temperature T1= 27C

Pressure P1 =7.5*10^3 Pa= 7500Pa

Final properties of the tank after decrease in volume and increase in temperature :

Volume V2 =0.480m3

Temperature T2 = 157C

Pressure P2 =?

Applying the gas law equation (Charles and Boyle's laws combined)

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

(7500 * 0.750)/27 =( P2 * 0.480)/157

P2 =(7500 * 0.750* 157) / (0.480 *27)

P2 = 883125/12.96

P2 = 68142.4Pa

Therefore the pressure of the cylindrical tank after decrease in volume and increase in temperature is 68142.4Pa

e-lub [12.9K]
<span>pm stands for picometer and picometers are units which can be used to measure really tiny distances. One picometer is equal to 10^{-12} meters. We know that one centimeter is equal to 10^{-2} m so there are 10^2 cm per meter. We can change the distance d = 115 pm to units of centimeters. d = (115 pm) x (10^{-12}m / pm) x (10^2 cm / m) d = 115 x 10^{-10} cm = 1.15 x 10^{-8} cm The distance in centimeters is 1.15 x 10^{-8} cm</span>

If PbI2(s) is dissolved in 1.0MNaI(aq) , is the maximum possible concentration of Pb2+(aq) in the solution greater than, less th
fredd [130]

Answer:

\mathbf{s =\sqrt [3]{\dfrac{K_{sp}}{4}}}

Less than the concentration of Pb2+(aq) in the solution in part ( a )

Explanation:

From the question:

A)

We assume that s to be  the solubility of PbI₂.

The equation of the reaction is given as :

PbI₂(s) ⇌ Pb²⁺(aq) + 2I⁻(aq); Ksp = 7 × 10⁻⁹

 [Pb²⁺] =   s

Then [I⁻] = 2s

K_{sp} =\text{[Pb$^{2+}$][I$^{-}$]}^{2} = s\times (2s)^{2} =  4s^{3}\\s^{3} = \dfrac{K_{sp}}{4}\\\\s =\mathbf{ \sqrt [3]{\dfrac{K_{sp}}{4}}}\\\\\text{The mathematical expressionthat can be used to determine the value of  }\mathbf{s =\sqrt [3]{\dfrac{K_{sp}}{4}}}

B)

The Concentration of Pb²⁺  in water is calculated as :

\mathbf{s =\sqrt [3]{\dfrac{K_{sp}}{4}}}

\mathbf{s =\sqrt [3]{\dfrac{7*10^{-9}}{4}}}

\mathbf{s} =\sqrt[3]{1.75*10^{-9}}

\mathbf{s} =\mathbf{1.21*10^{-3}  \ mol/L }

The Concentration of Pb²⁺  in 1.0 mol·L⁻¹ NaI

\mathbf{PbCl{_2}}  \leftrightharpoons    \ \ \ \ \ \ \  \mathbf{Pb^{2+}}   \ \ \ \  \ +   \ \  \ \ \ \ \ \mathbf{2 I^-}

                             \ \ \ \ \ \ \  \ \   \ \  \ \ \ \ \ \ \  \mathbf0}   \ \ \ \  \ \ \ \ \ \   \ \ \ \ \ \mathbf{1.0}

                            \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \    \ \ \ \ \  \mathbf{+x}   \ \ \ \  \    \ \  \ \ \ \ \ \mathbf{+2x}

                            \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \    \ \ \ \ \  \mathbf{+x}   \ \ \ \  \    \ \  \ \ \ \ \ \mathbf{1.0+2x}

The equilibrium constant:

K_{sp} =[Pb^{2+}}][I^-]^2 \\ \\ K_{sp} = s*(1.0*2s)^2 =7*1.0^{-9} \\ \\ s = 7*10^{-9} \ \  m/L

It is now clear that maximum possible concentration of Pb²⁺ in the solution is less than that in the solution in part (A). This happens due to the  common ion effect. The added iodide ion forces the position of equilibrium to shift to the left, reducing the concentration of Pb²⁺.

The activation energy for the reaction no2(g)+co(g)⟶no(g)+co2(g) is ea = 75 kj/mol and the change in enthalpy for the reaction i
Nonamiya [84]
Answer: 350 kj/mol


Explanation:

As shown below this expression gives the activation energy of the reverse reaction:

EA reverse reaction = EA forward reaction + | enthalpy change |

1) The activation energy, EA is the difference between the potential energies of the reactants and the transition state:

EA = energy of the transition state - energy of the reactants.

2) The activation energy of the forward reaction given is:

EA = energy of the transition state - energy of  [ NO2(g) + CO(g) ] = 75 kj/mol

3) The negative enthalpy change - 275 kj / mol for the forward reaction means that the products are below in the potential energy diagram, and that the potential energy of the products, [NO(g) + CO2(g) ] is equal to 75 kj / mol - 275 kj / mol = - 200 kj/mol

4) For the reverse reaction the reactants are [NO(g) + CO2(g)], and the transition state is the same than that for the forward reaction.

5) The difference of energy between the transition state and the potential energy of [NO(g) + CO2(g) ] will be the absolute value of the change of enthalpy plus the activation energy for the forward reaction:

EA reverse reaction = EA forward reaction + | enthalpy change |

EA reverse reaction = 75 kj / mol + |-275 kj/mol | = 75 kj/mol + 275 kj/mol = 350 kj/mol.

And that is the answer, 350 kj/mol

List the number of each type of atom on the left side of the equation C5H12(g)+8O2(g)→5CO2(g)+6H2O(g) C 5 H 12 ( g ) + 8 O 2 ( g
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

Carbon=5, hydrogen=12, oxygen=16

Explanation:

Carbon=5, hydrogen=12, oxygen=16

In order to effectively count the number of atoms, we look at the equation closely and take note of the stoichiometric coefficients of each reactant as this influences the number of atoms of that element present.

For instance, oxygen is diatomic and has a stoichiometric coefficient of 8. This implies the there are sixteen atoms of oxygen altogether.

Note that the left hand side refers to the reactants side.
