Textbook Question
Chapter 5, Problem 5.140QP
Sulfur-containing compounds give skunks their potent smell. One of the principal smelly compounds in skunk spray is (E)-2-butene-1-thiol, C4H7S.
- a What is the root-mean-square (rms) molecular speed of a gas molecule of this compound at 25°C?
- b Using the value from part a, calculate how long it would take a molecule of C4H7S to reach your nose if you were 150 m from the skunk.
- c Does the calculation that you performed in part b provide an accurate estimate for the length of time it would take for the molecule to travel 150 m, or is there something that was overlooked in performing the calculation?

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 energy
Divide the…
