(a)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The empirical and molecular formula of X.

Introduction:

A compound having at least one carbon and one hydrogen is termed as hydrocarbon. The additional atoms and molecules are added to the hydrocarbon chains and various hydrocarbons are formed. The qualitative and quantitative analysis helps to reveal the structure and constituents of the compound.

(b)

Summary Introduction

To draw: The possible structures of X that fit the molecular formula and contain one double bond.

Introduction:

A compound having at least one carbon and one hydrogen is termed as hydrocarbon. The additional atoms and molecules are added to the hydrocarbon chain and various hydrocarbons are formed. The qualitative and quantitative analysis helps to reveal the structure and constituents of the compound.

(c)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The structural significance of the observed optical activity and the structures in subpart (b) that are consistent with observation.

Introduction:

A compound having at least one carbon and one hydrogen is termed as hydrocarbon. The additional atoms and molecules are added to the hydrocarbon chain and various hydrocarbons are formed. The qualitative and quantitative analysis helps to reveal the structure and constituents of the compound.

(d)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The structural significance of the observation that a solution of X was acidic and the structures in subpart (b) that are consistent with the observation.

Introduction:

A compound having at least one carbon and one hydrogen is termed as hydrocarbon. The additional atoms and molecules are added to the hydrocarbon chain and various hydrocarbons are formed. The qualitative and quantitative analysis helps to reveal the structure and constituents of the compound.

(e)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The structure of X and whether more than one structure is consistent with all the data.

Introduction:

A compound having at least one carbon and one hydrogen is termed as hydrocarbon. The additional atoms and molecules are added to the hydrocarbon chain and various hydrocarbons are formed. The qualitative and quantitative analysis helps to reveal the structure and constituents of the compound.

The preferred substrate is T because the enzyme half-saturates at 7.00 mM for T, but requires 28.0 mM for U, and 112 mM for S. b Question Content Area The rate constant k 2 with substrate S is 9.60×107 sec-1, with substrate T, k 2 = 6.00×104 sec-1, and with substrate U, k 2 = 2.40×106 sec-1. Calculate the catalytic efficiency with S, T, and U. Catalytic efficiency with S =  Catalytic efficiency with T =   Catalytic efficiency with U =   Does enzyme A use substrate S, substrate T, or substrate U with greater catalytic efficiency?
Fumerase catalyzes the conversion of fumerate to malate. fumerate + H2O ⇋ malate The turnover number, kcat, for fumerase is 8.00×102 sec-1. The Km of this enzyme for fumerate is 5.00×10-3 μmol mL-1.   a   In an experiment using 2.00×10-3 μmol·mL-1, what is Vmax?
Suppose you wanted to make a buffer of exactly pH 7.00 using KH2PO4 and Na2HPO4. If the final solution was 0.18 M in KH2PO4, you would need 0.25 M Na2HPO4. Now assume you wish to make a buffer at the same pH, using the same substances, but want the total phosphate molarity ([HPO42−]+[H2PO−4]) to equal 0.20 M. What concentration of the Na2HPO4 would be required?
