Fatty acid biosynthesis occurs through a series of reactions involving fatty acid synthase (FAS), a polypeptide multienzyme comp

lex. The result of this synthesis is a saturated fatty acid with up to 16 carbon atoms (palmitic acid). Longer fatty acids and unsaturated fatty acids result from modifications to fatty acids produced by FAS activity.What saturated fatty acid gives rise to myristoleic acid, CH3(CH2)3CH=CH(CH2)7COOH? (Complete the reaction by modifying the reactant.)

Cyclohexane has a freezing point of 6.50 ∘C and a Kf of 20.0 ∘C/m. What is the freezing point of a solution made by dissolving 0

ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

The freezing point will be $2.9^{0}C$

Explanation:

The depression in freezing point is a colligative property.

It is related to molality as:

$Depressioninfreezing point=K_{f}Xmolality$

Where

Kf= $20\frac{^{0}C}{m}$

the molality is calculated as:

$molality=\frac{moles_{solute}}{mass_{solvent}}$

$moles=\frac{mass}{molarmass}=\frac{0.694}{154}=0.0045mol$

$massofcyclohexane=25g=0.025Kg$

$molarity=\frac{0.0045}{0.025}=0.18m$

Depression in freezing point = $20X0.18=3.6^{0}C$

The new freezing point = $6.5^{0}C-3.6^{0}C=2.9^{0}C$

The pOH of a solution is 6.0. Which statement is correct? Use p O H equals negative logarithm StartBracket upper O upper H super

Katen [24]

Answer:

The pH of the solution is 8.

Explanation:

To which options are correct, let us determine the concentration of the hydroxide ion, [OH-] and the pH of the solution. This is illustrated below:

1. The concentration of the hydroxide ion, [OH-] can be obtained as follow:

pOH = –Log [OH-]

pOH = 6

6 = –Log [OH-]

–6 = Log [OH-]

[OH-] = Antilog (–6)

[OH-] = 1x10^–6 mol/L

2. The pH of the solution can be obtained as follow:

pH + pOH = 14

pOH = 6

pH + 6 = 14

pH = 14 – 6

pH = 8.

From the calculations made above,

[OH-] = 1x10^–6 mol/L

pH = 8.

Therefore, the correct answer is:

The pH of the solution is 8

Coal gasification is a multistep process to convert coal into cleaner-burning fuels. In one step, a coal sample reacts with supe

ddd [48]

Answer :

The enthalpy of reaction is, -187.6 kJ/mol

The total heat will be, -2251 kJ

Explanation :

According to Hess’s law of constant heat summation, the heat absorbed or evolved in a given chemical equation is the same whether the process occurs in one step or several steps.

According to this law, the chemical equation can be treated as ordinary algebraic expression and can be added or subtracted to yield the required equation. That means the enthalpy change of the overall reaction is the sum of the enthalpy changes of the intermediate reactions.

(a) The formation of $CH_4$ will be,

$2C(coal)+2H_2O(g)\rightarrow CH_4(g)+CO_2(g)$ $\Delta H_{rxn}=?$

The intermediate balanced chemical reaction will be,

(1) $C(coal)+H_2O(g)\rightarrow CO(g)+H_2(g)$ $\Delta H_1=29.7kJ$

(2) $CO(g)+H_2O(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)+H_2(g)$ $\Delta H_2=-41kJ$

(3) $CO(g)+3H_2(g)\rightarrow CH_4(g)+H_2O(g)$ $\Delta H_3=-206kJ$

We are multiplying equation 1 by 2 and then adding all the equations, we get :

(b) The expression for enthalpy of reaction will be,

$\Delta H_{rxn}=2\times \Delta H_1+\Delta H_2+\Delta H_3$

$\Delta H_{rxn}=(2\times 29.7)+(-41)+(-206)$

$\Delta H_{rxn}=-187.6kJ/mol$

Therefore, the enthalpy of reaction is, -187.6 kJ/mol

(c) Now we have to calculate the total heat.

$\Delta H=\frac{q}{n}$

or,

$q=\Delta H\times n$

where,

$\Delta H$ = enthalpy change = -187.6 kJ/mol

q = heat = ?

n = number of moles of coal = $\frac{1.00\times 1000g}{12.00g/mol}=83.33mol$

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

$q=(-187.6kJ/mol)\times (83.33mol)=-2.251kJ$

Thus, the total heat will be, -2251 kJ
