Principles of General Organic & Biological Chemistry, Chapter 12, Problem 12.89AP , additional homework tip  1

Concept introduction:

Chiral:

When the molecule or object is not superimposable with their mirror image, then it is defined as a chiral molecule. The chiral molecule is considered when minimum one carbon atom is bonded with four different groups.

Achiral:

When the molecule or object is superimposable with their mirror image, then itis defined as an achiral molecule. An achiral molecule is then one when minimum one carbon atom is not bonded with four different groups.

An orange laser has a wavelength of 610 nm. What is the energy of this light?
The molar absorptivity of a protein in water at 280 nm can be estimated within ~5-10% from its content of the amino acids tyrosine and tryptophan and from the number of disulfide linkages (R-S-S-R) between cysteine residues:   Ε280 nm (M-1 cm-1) ≈ 5500 nTrp + 1490 nTyr + 125 nS-S   where nTrp is the number of tryptophans, nTyr is the number of tyrosines, and nS-S is the number of disulfide linkages. The protein human serum transferrin has 678 amino acids including 8 tryptophans, 26 tyrosines, and 19 disulfide linkages. The molecular mass of the most dominant for is 79550.   Predict the molar absorptivity of transferrin. Predict the absorbance of a solution that’s 1.000 g/L transferrin in a 1.000-cm-pathlength cuvet. Estimate the g/L of a transferrin solution with an absorbance of 1.50 at 280 nm.
In GC, what order will the following molecules elute from the column? CH3OCH3, CH3CH2OH, C3H8, C4H10
