Question 1 of 10 Many enzymes are irreversibly inhibited by heavy metal ions such as Hg. Cu, or Ag*, which can react with essential sulfhydryl groups to form mercaptides. Enz-SH + Ag Enz-S-Ag + H* - The affinity of Ag* for sulfhydryl groups is so great that Ag* can be used to titrate -SH groups quantitatively. An investigator added just enough AgNO, to completely inactivate a 10.0 mL solution containing 1.0 mg/ml. enzyme. A total of 0.342 umol of AgNO, was required. Calculate the minimum molecular weight of the enzyme. enzyme minimum molecular weight: g/mol Why does the value obtained in this way give only the minimum molecular weight?

-R -R N- H-B: H-B R R NCCD3 + CH2CI2 N. CICH2CI CD;CN CH3 CH3 R. A B A similar iridium complex was studied. It was found that the reaction with a Tp ligand where R = Me occurred with a very high rate (tsp< 5 s at0 °C), while the unsubstituted Tp complex had a much slower ligand substitution rate (tap = 75 min at room temp). Based on this result, does this complex undergo ligand substitution by the same mechanism as the ruthenium complex, or by another mechanism. Explain.

In Part 1 of the experiment, you will generate a calibration curve in order to determine el for this reaction. In order to ensure that the [Fe(SCN)2*] for these calibration solutions is accurately known, a large excess of SCN is used, so that the equilibrium for these solutions lies heavily to the products, and we can assume all of the Fe2* added becomes Fe(SCN)2*. In Part 2, you will observe solutions prepared with various initial reactant concentrations in order to determine Keg for the formation of iron(II) thiocyanate.
This problem uses a bicarbonate/carbonate buffer which means that we can consider the following equilibrium showing bicarbonate acting as a Brønsted acid: HCO3- + H2O ⇌ CO32- + H+ Verify that the Ka for bicarbonate is 4.7 x 10-11 and show that the pKa is 10.3 Write the appropriate Ka expression for the above equilibrium as well as the corresponding Henderson-Hasselbach equation.
