In a laboratory determination of the atomic weight of tin, a sample of tin is weighed in a crucible. nitric acid is added, and the reaction proceeds to give a hydrated tin(iv)oxide plus no2and h2o. the hydrated tin(iv)oxide is then heated strongly and reacts as follows: sno2.xh2o(s)sno2(s)+ xh2o(g)the sno2is finally cooled and weighed in the crucible. explain the effect on the calculated atomic weight of tin that would result from each of the following experimental errors: (a)considerable spattering occurs when the nitric acid is added to the tin.(b)the hydrated tin(iv)oxide is not heated sufficiently to change it completely to tin oxide.

Achemist at a pharmaceutical company is measuring equilibrium constants for reactions in which drug candidate molecules bind to a protein involved in cancer. the drug molecules bind the protein in a 1: 1 ratio to form a drug-protein complex. the protein concentration in aqueous solution at 25 ˚c is 1.74 x10-6 m . drug a is introduced into the protein solution at an initial concentration of 2.00 x10-6m. drug b is introduced into a separate, identical protein solution at an initial concentration of 2.00 x10-6m. at equilibrium, the drug a-protein solution has an a-protein complex concentration of 1.00 x10-6m, and the drug b solution has a b-protein complex concentration of 1.40 x10-6m.a. calculate the kc value for the a-protein binding reaction.b. calculate the kc value for the b-protein binding reaction.c. assuming that the drug that binds more strongly will be more effective, which drug is the better choice for further research?
