This binds to the active site along with the substrate in order to catalyze an enzymatic reaction.

cofactor

A nugget of gold with a mass of 521 g is added to 50.0 ml of water. The water level rises to a volume of 77.0 ml. What is the density of gold?

19.3 g/ml

What would be the charge of glutamic acid at pH 7?

Negative

What would be the result of increasing the number of nucleophiles in a SN1 reaction?

increase, decrease, have no effect?

It would have no effect. SN1 reactions are substitution reactions that depend on reagents attracted to electrons (electrophiles). SN1 reactions do not depend on the number of nucleophiles involved in the reaction. Consequently, altering the concentration of nucleophiles does not alter the rate of reaction.

Which type of reaction is shown below?

2NaNO3 (s) → 2NaNO2 (s) + O2 (g)

Decomposition

Mg3N2 + 6H2O → 3Mg(OH)2 + 2NH3

How many moles of ammonia are liberated when 2 moles of Mg3N2 is reacted with 9 moles of H2O?

3

Which nutrient yields the most energy per unit?

Fat

The addition of HBr with peroxide and an alkene yields what product?

Markovnikov’s product

anti-Markovnikov’s product

Sayteffs product

the ortho product

anti-Markovnikov’s product

HBr plus an alkene yields Markovnikov’s product. But, in the presence of peroxide, the result of the reaction is an anti-Markovnikov’s product.

Which of the following compounds has the strongest electrostatic interactions between the constituent particles?

NH3, PCl5, NaCl, or NO2

NaCl

An ideal gas has a pressure of 15 psi and a temperature of 400 K. If the volume of the gas is reduced from 3 liters to 2 liters at constant pressure, what is the final temperature of the gas?

*hint*  leave as fraction

267 K

In a single strand of a nucleic acid, nucleotides are linked by

phosphodiester bonds

400

Which of the following alcohols is the most easily dehydrated?

A. (CH3)3C−OH

B. (CH3)2CH−OH

C. CH3CH2−OH

D. CH3−OH


A. (CH3)3C−OH

 Classify the alcohols as primary, secondary, or tertiary: (A) is tertiary because the −OH group is directly attached to 3 alkyl groups; (B) is secondary because the carbon attached to the −OH is connected to 2 carbon atoms; (C) is primary because the carbon connected to the −OH group is connected to 1 carbon atom; and although (D) lacks an attached alkyl group, it is considered primary. As tertiary alcohols form the most stable carbocations, (A) is correct.

550 nm electromagnetic radiation is in what region of the electromagnetic spectrum?

Visible

What is the pH of a one liter solution containing 23.6 g of HCl in water?

0.19

The MW of HCl is 36.5 g/mole

23.6 g is 0.647 mole HCl 

0.647 mole/ one liter so [0.647 M]

pH = -log[0.647] = 0.19

A mixture consists of 3 moles of N2, 2 moles of O2 and 2 moles of Xe. At 298 K, the gas has a pressure of 5 atm. What is the partial pressure of xenon in this mixture?

10/7 atm

In animals, consuming glucose causes insulin release from the pancreas, which causes the liver and muscles to take in glucose from the blood stream. This is an example of

negative feedback

500

A compound is particularly stable if all of its bonding molecular orbitals are filled with paired electrons. This is true of aromatic compounds, meaning they are quite stable. With aromatic compounds, 2 electrons fill the lowest energy molecular orbital, and 4 electrons fill each subsequent energy level (the number of subsequent energy levels is denoted by n), leaving all bonding orbitals filled and no anti-bonding orbitals occupied. This gives a total of 4n+2 ππ electrons.
