the formulas for ethane, ethene, and ethyne are c2h6 , c2h4 , and c2h2 , respectively. rank these compounds by the length of the carbon–carbon bond.

Imagine that you have produced several versions of lactase, each of which differs from normal lactase by a single amino acid. describe a test that could indirectly determine which of the versions significantly alters the three-dimensional shape of the lactase protein.

1. suppose a reaction mixture, when diluted with water, afforded 300 ml of an aqueous solution of 30 g of the reaction product malononitrile [ch2(cn)2], which is to be isolated by extraction with ether. the solubility of malononitrile in ether at room temperature is 20.0 g/100 ml, and in water is 13.3 g/100 ml. what weight of malononitrile would be recovered by extraction with (a) three 100-ml portions of ether and (b) one 300-ml portion of ether? suggestion: for each extraction, let x equal the weight extracted into the ether layer. in part (a), the concentration in the ether layer is x/100 and in the water layer is (30 x)/300; the ratio of these quantities is equal to k 20/13.3.

Which statement best describes the relationship between period and frequency of light waves? a) in wave b the period increases and the frequency decreases from wave a. b) in wave a the period increases and the frequency decreases from wave b. c) in wave b the period is shorter and the frequency is greater than in wave a. d) in wave a the period is shorter and the frequency is greater than in wave b.
