The given concentration of boric acid = 0.0500 M

Required volume of the solution = 2 L

Molarity is the moles of solute present per liter solution. So 0.0500 M boric acid has 0.0500 mol boric acid present in 1 L solution.

Calculating the moles of 0.0500 M boric acid present in 2 L solution:

$2 L * \frac{0.0500 mol B(OH)_{3} }{1 L} = 0.100 mol B(OH)_{3}$

Converting moles of boric acid to mass:

$0.100 mol B(OH)_{3} * \frac{61.83 g}{mol B(OH)_{3}} = 6.183 g$

Therefore, 6.183 g boric acid when dissolved and made up to 2 L with distilled water gives 0.0500 M solution.

Each half-life results in ~50% (1/2) of the original element remaining.

7500/1250 = 6 half-lives, so 100(1/2)^6
= 100(0.015625)
= 1.5625% of the original element would remain

The unit cell for cr2o3 has hexagonal symmetry with lattice parameters a = 0.4961 nm and c = 1.360 nm. If the density of this ma

IRINA_888 [86]

To calculate the packing factor, first calculate the area and volume of unit cell.

Area is calculated as:

$A=6R^{2}\sqrt{3}$

Here, R is radius and is related to a as follows:

$R=\frac{a}{2}$

Putting the value in expression for area,

$A=6(\frac{a}{2})^{2}\sqrt{3}=1.5a^{2}\sqrt{3}$

The value of a is 0.4961 nm

Since, $1 nm=10^{-7}cm$

Thus, $0.4961 nm=4.961\times 10^{-8} cm$

Putting the value,

$Area=1.5(4.961\times 10^{-8}cm)^{2}\sqrt{3}=6.39\times 10^{-15}cm^{2}$

Now, volume can be calculated as follows:

$V=Area\times c$

The value of c is 1.360 nm or $1.360\times 10^{-7} cm$

Putting the value,

$V=(6.39\times 10^{-15}cm^{2})\times (1.360\times 10^{-7} cm)=8.7\times 10^{-22}cm^{3}$

now, number of atom in unit cell can be calculated by using the following formula:

$n=\frac{\rho N_{A}V_{c}}{A}$

Here, A is atomic mass of $Cr_{2}O_{3}$ is 151.99 g/mol.

Putting all the values,

$n=\frac{(5.22 g/cm^{3})(6.023\times 10^{23} mol^{-1})(8.7\times 10^{-22}cm^{3})}{(151.99 g/mol)}\approx 18$

Thus, there will be 18 $Cr_{2}O_{3}$ units in 1 unit cell.

Since, there are 2 Cr atoms and 3 oxygen atoms thus, units of chromium and oxygen will be 2×18=36 and 3×18=54 respectively.

The atomic radii of $Cr^{3+}$ and $O^{2-}$ is 62 pm and 140 pm respectively.

Converting them into cm:

$1 pm=10^{-10}cm$

Thus,

$r_{Cr^{3+}}=6.2\times 10^{-9}cm$

and,

$r_{O^{2-}}=1.4\times 10^{-8}cm$

Volume of sphere will be sum of volume of total number of cations and anions thus,

$V_{S}=V_{Cr^{3+}}+V_{O^{2-}}$

Since, volume of sphere is $V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}$ ,

$V_{S}=36\left ( \frac{4}{3}\pi (r_{Cr^{3+})^{3}} \right )+54\left ( \frac{4}{3}\pi (r_{O^{2-})^{3}} \right )$

Putting the values,

$V_{S}=36\left ( \frac{4}{3}(3.14) (6.2\times 10^{-9} cm)^{3}} \right )+54\left ( \frac{4}{3}(3.14) (1.4\times 10^{-8} cm)^{3}} \right )=6.6\times 10^{-22}\times 10^{-8}cm^{3}$

The atomic packing factor is ratio of volume of sphere and volume of crystal, thus,

$packing factor=\frac{V_{S}}{V_{C}}=\frac{6.6\times 10^{-22}cm^{3}}{8.7\times 10^{-22}cm^{3}}=0.758$

Thus, atomic packing factor is 0.758.

A plot of velocity versus substrate concentration for a simple enzyme-catalyzed reaction produces a _____. This indicates that a

kirza4 [7]

Answer:

B) hyperbolic curve; saturated with substrate

Explanation:

Enzymatic kinetics studies the speed of enzyme catalyzed reactions. These studies provide direct information about the mechanism of the catalytic reaction and the specificity of the enzyme. The speed of a reaction catalyzed by an enzyme can be measured with relative ease, since in many cases it is not necessary to purify or isolate the enzyme. The measurement is always carried out under the optimal conditions of pH, temperature, presence of cofactors, etc., and saturating substrate concentrations are used. Under these conditions, the reaction rate observed is the maximum speed (Vmax). The speed can be determined either by measuring the appearance of the products or the disappearance of the reagents.

Following the rate of appearance of product (or disappearance of the substrate) as a function of time, the so-called reaction progress curve is obtained, or simply, the reaction kinetics. This curve is represented by a hyperbolic curve
