Chapter 16, Problem 9E

Consider a system similar to the one in Figure 16.8, except that it contains six particles instead of four. What is the probability of having all the particles in only one of the two boxes in the case? Compare this with the similar probability for the system of four particles that we have derived to be equal to 1 8 . What does this comparison tell us about even larger systems?

Learning Goal: This question reviews the format for writing an element's written symbol. Recall that written symbols have a particular format. Written symbols use a form like this: 35 Cl 17 In this form the mass number, 35, is a stacked superscript. The atomic number, 17, is a stacked subscript. "CI" is the chemical symbol for the element chlorine. A general way to show this form is: It is also correct to write symbols by leaving off the atomic number, as in the following form: atomic number mass number Symbol 35 Cl or mass number Symbol This is because if you write the element symbol, such as Cl, you know the atomic number is 17 from that symbol. Remember that the atomic number, or number of protons in the nucleus, is what defines the element. Thus, if 17 protons are in the nucleus, the element can only be chlorine. Sometimes you will only see 35 C1, where the atomic number is not written. Watch this video to review the format for written symbols. In the following table each column…
need help please and thanks dont understand only need help with C-F Learning Goal: As discussed during the lecture, the enzyme HIV-1 reverse transcriptae (HIV-RT) plays a significant role for the HIV virus and is an important drug target. Assume a concentration [E] of 2.00 µM (i.e. 2.00 x 10-6 mol/l) for HIV-RT. Two potential drug molecules, D1 and D2, were identified, which form stable complexes with the HIV-RT. The dissociation constant of the complex ED1 formed by HIV-RT and the drug D1 is 1.00 nM (i.e. 1.00 x 10-9). The dissociation constant of the complex ED2 formed by HIV-RT and the drug D2 is 100 nM (i.e. 1.00 x 10-7).   Part A - Difference in binding free eenergies Compute the difference in binding free energy (at a physiological temperature T=310 K) for the complexes. Provide the difference as a positive numerical expression with three significant figures in kJ/mol. The margin of error is 2%.   Part B - Compare difference in free energy to the thermal…
