A standard iodate solution is prepared at 22.0 °C by dissolving 0.9123 g (uncorrected mass) of KIO3 with deionized water in a 499.92 mL volumetric flask. To standardize the Na2S2O3 solution, a 10.005 mL aliquot of the KIO3 solution is acidified, treated with excess KI, and titrated with Na2S2O3, requiring 22.05 mL to reach the end point. Finally, a 10.005 mL aliquot of unknown Cu solution is reduced with excess KI. The liberated iodine requires 31.46 mL of Na2S2O3 solution to reach the end point. Calculate the unknown Cu concentration in g/L.

These are what the correct step answers should be, just need to show how to do work:

[KIO3 standard (corrected to 20 °C): 8.53255 mM]

[S2O3 2− titrant: 23.2294 mM]

FINAL ANSWER: [Unknown: 4.64160 g/L Cu]

A protease is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of the peptide bonds of target proteins. How might a protease bind a target protein so that its main chain becomes fully extended in the vicinity of the vulnerable peptide bond?

The hint that we got was this: look for a way the protease might stabilize the substrate during hydrolysis

I'm open to several possibilities at this point but please explain your answer in detail.

Solid carbon can react with gaseous water to form carbon monoxide gas and hydrogen gas. The equilibrium constant for the reaction at 700.0 K is Kp=1.60×10−3. If a 1.55-L reaction vessel initially contains 247 torr of water at 700.0 K in contact with excess solid carbon, find the percent by mass of hydrogen gas of the gaseous reaction mixture at equilibrium.
