Your lab partner gets a little confused and prepares a dilution of your protein sample by combining 220.0 uL of the sample and 770.0 µL of water. Regardless of the confusion, you get an acceptable absorbance reading (below 1.0). If the protein concentration in the dilute sample was 2.1 mg/mL, what's the concentration in your original, undiluted sample?

Aspartic acid is a polyprotic system whose forms can be written as H3A+, H2A, HA-, and A2-. Its Ka values are: Ka1 = 1.02 x 10-2 Ka2 = 1.26 x 10-4 Ka3 = 9.95 x 10-11 How many milliliters of 0.30 M NaOH should be added to 100 mL of a solution containing 8.0 g of the neutral, zwitterionic form of aspartic acid (M.W. = 133.10 g/mol) to bring the pH to 10.3? Find the answer to the nearest mL. The answer is between 300 and 400. Retain 4 d.p. in your calculations and don't round until you calculate the volume of NaOH required at the very end.
A 1 mL sample of glycogen was calculated to contain 21 µmol (micromole) glucose. To 1 mL of this sample was added 2 mL of 2 M HCl. It was then hydrolysed by boiling the solution for 15 minutes. After boiling the hydrolysate was cooled and made up with H2O to a final volume of exactly 10 mL. The glucose was measured in this solution and found to have a concentration of 340 µg/mL (microgram/milliliter). i) Calculate the mass (mg) of glucose in the 10 mL of hydrolysate. As the 1 mL of glycogen sample was made up to a final volume of 10 mL, this mass of glucose was produced by the hydrolysis of the original 1 mL glycogen sample. ii) Calculate the amount (µmol) of glucose produced by the hydrolysis of the glycogen sample. iii) Calculate the purity of the glycogen used in the sample as % Purity = (moles of measured glucose/ moles of calculated glucose in glycogen) *100 iv) state your answer in a complete sentence. Show your working out such that the marker can easily understand it.…

3. Standard white vinegar you can buy in the grocery store is 5% concentration. That means 5% of the liquid vinegar is acetic acid and 95% of the solution is water. In a hardware store, you can buy industrial strength vinegar, which is 30% concentration. This means that 30% of the vinegar is acetic acid, and the remaining 70% is water. Samuel does another experiment, this time with 5% vinegar and 30% vinegar. He sets up two science fair volcanoes (in no particular order), each with the same temperature, mass of baking soda and volume of vinegar. But one volcano uses 5% vinegar and the other volcano uses 30% vinegar. He measures the volume of gas production for the first minute of each reaction, and he records the data below. Volcano # 1 Volume of gas Volume of gas produced (mL) vs. Time (s) for Volcano #1 Time (s) produced (mL) 60 E 50 10 25 40 20 38 30 46 30 • Volume of gas produced (mL) 40 50 50 52 10 60 53 20 40 60 80 Time (s) Volcano # 2 Volume of gas produced (mL) vs. Time (s) for…
