Chapter 20, Problem 7E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The explanation corresponding to the change happens when an emission from a radioactive substance collides with an atom is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
A radioactive decay series is a series of nuclear reaction in which an unstable radioisotope decays to form a stable isotope.
Nuclear reaction deals with the exchange and release of nucleons and changes the identity of the participating elements.

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
