Answer:

Based on the information, the compound is a phospholipid.

Explanation:

Phospholipids are made up of a fatty acid tail which is hydrophobic in nature and a head which comprises of phosphates that is hydrophilic in nature. Hence, phospholipids are amphiphilic compounds so they will be partially soluble in water and will allow water-soluble substances to mix with fats.

Hence, the composition of the substance described in the question confirms that is a phospholipid. As it's structure contains hydrocarbon and phosphorus and might also contain nitrogen.

0.15 gm of metallic oxide was dissolved in 100 ml of 0.1 N H2SO4 and 25.8 ml of 0.095N NaOH were used to neutralise the remainin
Mila [183]

Answer:

Explanation:

25.8 ml of .095 N NaOH is needed to neutralise the remaining acid

equivalent of NaOH used = 25.8 x .095 / 1000 = .002451 gm equivalent .

acid remaining = .002451 gm equivalent .

acid initially taken = 100 ml of .1 N  /  1000  = . 01 gm equivalent

acid reacted with metal = .01  -.002451 = .007549 gm equivalent

This must have reacted with same gram equivalent of metal oxide

.007549  gm equivalent = .15 gm of metal oxide

1 gm equivalent = 19.87 gm

equivalent weight of metal = 19.87 - equivalent weight of oxygen

= 19.87 - 8 = 11.87 .

5. A Dumas bulb is filled with chlorine gas at the ambient pressure and is found to contain 7.1 g of chlorine when the temperatu
kati45 [8]

Answer:

a. The original temperature of the gas is 2743K.

b. 20atm.

Explanation:

a. As a result of the gas laws, you can know that the temperature is inversely proportional to moles of a gas when pressure and volume remains constant. The equation could be:

T₁n₁ = T₂n₂

<em>Where T is absolute temperature and n amount of gas at 1, initial state and 2, final states.</em>

<em />

<em>Replacing with values of the problem:</em>

T₁n₁ = T₂n₂

X*7.1g = (X+300)*6.4g

7.1X = 6.4X + 1920

0.7X = 1920

X = 2743K

<h3>The original temperature of the gas is 2743K</h3><h3 />

b. Using general gas law:

PV = nRT

<em>Where P is pressure (Our unknown)</em>

<em>V is volume = 2.24L</em>

<em>n are moles of gas (7.1g / 35.45g/mol = 0.20 moles)</em>

R is gas constant = 0.082atmL/molK

And T is absolute temperature (2743K)

P*2.24L = 0.20mol*0.082atmL/molK*2743K

<h3>P = 20atm</h3>

The pK1, pK2, and pKR of the amino acid lysine are 2.2, 9.1, and 10.5, respectively. The pK1, pK2, and pKR of the amino acid arg
almond37 [142]

Answer:

pH 9,8 is likely to work best for this separation

Explanation:

Ion exchange chromatography is a chemical process where molecules are separated by affinity to an ion exchange resin. To separate different aminoacids you must use the isoelectric point (That is the pH where the aminoacid will be in its neutral form).

For lysine, PI is:

pH = \frac{1}{2} (9,1+10,5) = 9,8

For arginine:

pH = \frac{1}{2} (9,0+12,5) = 10,75

At pH = 9,8 lysine will be in its neutral form and will not be retain in the column but arginine will be in +1 charge being retained by the ion exchange resin.

Thus, <em>pH 9,8 is likely to work best for this separation</em>

<em></em>

I hope it helps!

A 23.74-mL volume of 0.0981 M NaOH was used to titrate 25.0 mL of a weak monoprotic acid solution to the stoi- chiometric point.
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

Molar concentration of the weak acid solution is 0.0932

Explanation:

Using the formula: \frac{C_aV_a}{C_bV+b}  = \frac{n_a}{n_b}

Where Ca = molarity of acid

Cb = molarity of base = 0.0981 M

Va = volume of acid = 25.0 mL

Vb = volume of base = 23.74 mL

na = mole of acid

nb = mole of base

Since the acid is monopromatic, 1 mole of the acid will require 1 mole of NaOH. Hence, na = nb = 1

Therefore, C_a = \frac{C_bV_b}{V_a}

Ca = 0.0981 x 23.74/25.0

                 = 0.093155 M

To 4 significant figure = 0.0932 M
