Chapter 5, Problem 5.59E

Monosodium glutamate, or MSG, is the sodium salt of the amino acid glutamic acid. Its formula (with ions shown) is Na + C 2 H 8 NO 4 . Calculate the concentration of the zwitter-ionic glutamic acid in a 0.010 m solution of MSG. Assume the molalities are equal to the activities. Hint: See equation 5.21 and Table 5.1 .

When 14.3 g of a certain molecular compound X are dissolved in  85.0 g of benzene C6H6, the freezing point of the solution is measured to be 0.5 °C. Calculate the molar mass of X.   molal freezing point depression constant (Kf)°C·kg·mol−1 of benzen is 5.07   If you need any additional information on benzene, use only what you find in the ALEKS Data resource. Also, be sure your answer has a unit symbol, and is rounded to  2  significant digits.
The vapor pressure of benzene, C6H6, is 94.6 Torr at 25 °C. A nonvolatile compound was added to 0.300 mol C6H6(l) at 25 °C and the vapor pressure of the benzene in solution decreased to 75.0 Torr. What amount of (in moles) of solute molecules was added to the benzene?
Suppose 0.125 g of a protein is dissolved in 10.0 cm3 of ethyl alcohol (C2H5OH), whose density at 20°C is 0.789 g cm-3 . The solution rises to a height of 26.3 cm in an osmometer (an apparatus for measuring osmotic pressure). What is the approximate molar mass of the protein?
