The arsenic in a 1.27 g sample of a pesticide was converted to AsO3−4 by suitable chemical treatment. It was then titrated using Ag+ to form Ag3AsO4 as a precipitate.
A- What is the oxidation state of As in AsO3−4?
B- Name Ag3AsO4 by analogy to the corresponding compound containing phosphorus in place of arsenic.
C- If it took 21.0 mL of 0.106 M Ag+ to reach the equivalence point in this titration, what is the mass percentage of arsenic in the pesticide?

Many transuranium elements, such as plutonium-232, have
very short half-lives. (For 232Pu, the half-life is 36
minutes.)
However, some, like protactinium-231 (half-life 5 3.34 3
104 years), have relatively long half-lives. calculate the change
in energy when
1 mole of 232Pu nuclei and 1 mole of 231Pa nuclei are each
formed from their respective number of protons and neutrons.

A hydrogen electron in the ground state absorbs a 92.3157 nm photon to reach a higher excited state (a), and then emits two photons, one with 1.75777 x 10^-20 J of energy to reach an intermediate state (b), and one with wavelength 1005.22nm as it falls back to a lower excited state (c). Determine the three energy levels (a,b,c) of this particular electron.

In a constant-pressure calorimeter, 60.0 mL of 0.310 M Ba(OH)2 was added to 60.0 mL of 0.620 M HCl. The reaction caused the temperature of the solution to rise from 22.61 °C to 26.83 °C. If the solution has the same density and specific heat as water (1.00 g/mL and 4.184 J/g·°C, respectively), what is ΔH for this reaction (per mole of H2O produced)? Assume that the total volume is the sum of the individual volumes.

1) You are a research scientist studying a novel enzyme X, and you want to characterize this new enzyme. You measure the velocity of the reaction with different substrate concentrations and get the following data:
| [S] (mM) | Initial Velocity (mmol/min) |
| 3.0 | 10.4 |
| 5.0 | 14.5 |
| 10.0 | 22.5 |
| 30.0 | 33.8 |
| 90.0 | 40.5 |
a) Graph the above data. From the graph, estimate KM and Vmax (Michaelis-Menten Plot)
b) Use Lineweaver-Burk plot to calculate Km and Vmax. Show all equations and calculations.
c) You decide to do this experiment again, but this time with only one third of the enzyme X concentration used in the first experiment. Draw a new graph on the same graph that you did the first graph on. Estimate Km and Vmax from the new graph.
