A change in pH from 3.0 to 5.0 represents
a 100 fold decrease in acidity.
a 100 fold increase in acidity.
a 10 fold increase in acidity.
a decrease in acidity by a factor of 2.
a 10 fold decrease in acidity.
We know [H^+] = 10^-pH
At pH = 3.0 :-
[H^+] = 10^-3 M
At pH = 5.0 then [H^+] = 10^-5 M
So concentration of H^+ decreased by 10^-3 M / 10^-5 M = 100 fold.
Correct answer is (a)
A change in pH from 3.0 to 5.0 represents a 100 fold decrease in acidity. a...
How does tower design height (Z) change for 10-fold, 100-fold, and 1000-fold removal of a contaminant? Assume a stripping factor of 3, and that the tower surface areas in each of the three cases are the same (same surface loading rate). Note: you are not to calculate the tower height, you are asked to compare height levels for each log-fold increase in treatment.
6. Between 1751 and 1994, the pH of the ocean changed from 8.25 to 8.14. By 2100, the pH of the ocean is expected to be between 7.64-7.84. Is this an increase or decrease in pH? Does that correspond to an increase or a decrease in acidity of the ocean? Explain how this data is or is not consistent with what you observed in the lab about the change in pH of seawater and freshwater from carbon dioxide. What do...
Change the ph from 1.0 to 2.0 means(H+) A- halves B-double C- increase by factor of 10 D- decrease by factor of 10
4. The X-fold increase in [AMP] (resulting from a 10% decrease in [ATP]) can be shown to be responsible for about a 9 told increase in flux through glycolysis by its action on phosphofructokinase alone. But a 9-fold increase is still not an -fold increase, so there must be something more to the story. That "something more" includes substrate cycling (see Figure 15-25 in your text). The reaction catalyzed by fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase) acts as the reverse direction reaction for the...
2.) Activator and helper. Figure 19.29B gives the fold change for a genetic network with an activator and helper. However, it contains several mistakes that we will fix here. a.) Derive the formula for the fold change under the assumptions of a weak promoter and �!"# $% ≫ �. Show that the fold change is given by the formula below rather than that in the book. Hint: The schematic in Figure 19.29B should be helpful in determining the states and...
Let x be a random variable that represents the pH of arterial plasma (i.e., acidity of the blood). For healthy adults, the mean of the x distribution is μ = 7.4.† A new drug for arthritis has been developed. However, it is thought that this drug may change blood pH. A random sample of 31 patients with arthritis took the drug for 3 months. Blood tests showed that x = 8.4 with sample standard deviation s = 2.7. Use a...
Will Ca(OH)2 precipitate from solution if the pH of a 3.0×10−2 M solution of CaCl2 is adjusted to 8.0? Will Ag2SO4 precipitate when 100 mL of 4.0×10−2 M AgNO3 is mixed with 10 mL of 5.0×10−2MNa2SO4 solution?
answer: True or False 14) Proteins fold up according to thermodynamic principles into a conformation that represents the lowest free energy (AG) conformation. True ? 15) Lowering the pH from 7.4 to 6.8, which can occur during heavy respiration, increases the Hill coefficient for oxygen binding to hemoglobin by increasing the number of salt bridges that can be made. 16) Proteolytic cleavage of chymotrypsin at lle 16 activates the enzymatic activity by increasing keat. 17) Raising the pH will decrease...
