Question
Please answer the first question (number 7)
Transcription:

---

7*) Knowing that there are 20 different possible amino acids that can be used at each position in a polypeptide, calculate the number of different polypeptides that could theoretically be produced for a protein that is 180 amino acids in length. Do you expect to find all these possible protein sequences produced in nature? Please explain your answer.

8*) Determine whether the following statements are true or false, and explain your answer in one sentence.
   a) The rate law for an overall reaction 2A (g) → B (g) is: Rate = k[A]^2
   b) The rate law for an elementary step 2A (g) → B (g) is: Rate = k[A]^2
   c) The rate of an overall reaction is the rate of the slowest elementary step within its mechanism.
