Homework Help

I'm curious as to what characteristics of ligands affect CO stretching frequencies. I've already accounted for backbonding, and I'm wondering what other characteristics are important. I'm also a little unclear as to what makes a ligand more pi accepting than another.

Find the area bounded by the graph of f(x)=x3 √(1-x3) the x-axis & the verticle lines x=0 & x=1.

Hi How can I using a 100bp ladder calculate the sizes of PCR products obtained with a 3' primer ? Can someone please help me really stuck on this

I need to find what Ax must equal in order to for (f(x) = (Ax(dot)x)(e^(||x||^2))) to have a critical point. I've gotten it down to Ax = -x(Ax dot x) but I dont think that's right. I'm really not sure.

Hi, i need a concise description and summary of isomerisation and reformation with a couple of examples for both and how they are used for creating fuels. Also, any other ways in which fuels are altered to gain better efficiency or to be 'greener' would be great. Thanks, Drew.

Hi everybody! Question for a take home biochem test that Im not sure how to answer: Receptor-mediated endocytosis is important in processing LDL; however, other peptide hormones also function by this method and may use receptor-mediated endocytosis instead of using a second messenger to transfer their ''signal.'' what could be the reason(s) for the hormone and its receptor to undergo endocytosis? Thank you in advance for any help you can offer me!

There is 400 mL of 0.2 M histidine buffer- pH 11. Find the moles of HCl that are needed to change the pH to 3.2. -------- First, this is how you would go from acid to base (acid-->base): 1. There is 400 mL of 0.2 M histidine buffer- pH 3.2 Find the moles of OH that are needed to change the pH to 11. H+2 <--> H+1 <-->H0 <-->H-1 1) Find a and b using H-H, and pKa values (2.1-pKa of COOH and 3.2 in one equation, and 9.6-pKa of NH3+ and 11 in the second equation). ADD PLUS ONE.

Using the fact that for all n≥M, (a^n)≤(a^M/M!)(a/M)^(n-M), Show that given some ε > 0, there exists a natural number M such that for all n ≥ M, (a^n)/n! < ε So Im looking for a potential value for M that would complete my proof. So far I have found that if M = ε(a^2+1) then it works, through experimenting with different values for a. However, this does not incorporate that (a^n)≤(a^M/M!)(a/M)^(n-M). I also cannot find a way of proving that choosing M = ε(a^2+1) works for this problem. Should I take a different approach?

I'm working on a hypersonic vehicle project and I have some questions regarding some results I have obtained. The scope of this project includes the calculation and plotting of the pressure, temperature, pressure coefficient, and drag coefficient on the surface of a blunt body. The three methods being used are the Newtonian Theory for a calorically perfect gas, Modified Newtonian Theory for a calorically perfect gas, and Modified Newtonian Theory for a thermo-chemical equilibrium gas. I have attached a zip file with these plots. I have also included a plot of the temperature distribution without the thermo-chemical equilibrium assumption. Looking at the temperatur…

I'm writing a report examining the link between Ozone thickness and UV dose. I have two data sets, one is Ozone thickness in Dobson units, the other is Cloud Free UV dose. I recorded these numbers over a period of time. I have a list of dates and the UV number and Ozone thickness in Dobson units for each date. I'm trying to do calculations which confirm the link between the two variables. I've tried to do T-Tests and I just can't seem to figure out if I'm using the right one. I'm not sure if I should use paired or unpaired. I'm fairly sure I should be using assumed equal variance, but I could be wrong. Anyway, my question is does a T-Test have any relevence with this data…

I have to build a scale 6 story model tower with 4-6in per story to survive on a shake table (to simulate a earthquake) out of raw spaghetti noodles and hot melt glue. 100 gram weights will be placed on the 2nd 4th 6th floors. I need to know how to calculate the forces that the model will endure and the strength of the model. i was thinking of incorporating the following design features. cross braces (forming triangles) have the tower tapper in from the base until it reaches the 4th floor where it will stop tapering and continue at the same width. I need to know if these will help. we are also supposed to build a base isolation system idk enough about the materials …

I have this sum: [LATEX] lim_{(x,y)->(0,0)} tan^{-1} (\frac{|x|+|y|}{x^2+y^2}) [/LATEX] and here's my attempt at a solution using the limit definition: I'll work with whats inside the arctan first, then dump the limit in there..I guess my limit as 0 (for fun--how to make intuitive guesses for proposed limits, I do not know). So [LATEX] lim_{(x,y)->(0,0)}\frac{|x|+|y|}{x^2+y^2} [/LATEX] [LATEX]|\frac{|x|+|y|}{x^2+y^2}|<\epsilon\ \ whenever\ \ \sqrt{x^2+y^2}<\delta [/LATEX] [LATEX]\frac{|x|+|y|}{x^2+y^2}< \frac{\sqrt{x^2}+\sqrt{y^2}}{x^2+y^2}[/LATEX] [LATEX]<\frac{\sqrt{x^2+y^2}+\sqrt{y^2+x^2}}{x^2+y^2}[/LATEX] [LATEX]=\frac{2 \sqrt{x^2+y^2}}{x^2+…

Hi my name is Andrew............... i have a problem i have to come up with a Science FAIR PROJET TOMMOROW ANY cool topics pls reply

so we have a project called LTD (learning through discovery) and i have a question called how does the tongue connect with the brain and the nose? so far i have this: Even though we don’t knowthis (or maybe we do), the nose plays a major role when tasting food. our senseof smell is actually responsible for 80% of what we taste. Without our sense ofsmell, we are only limited to five distinct sensations which aresweet,salty,sour,bitter and the newly discovered “umami” or savory sensation. Allof the other flavours come from smell. When you eat food, some of the foodmolecules travel to the back of your throat which are then picked up by the nerve endings in your nose wh…

So I have my differential equations for 2 bodies coupled with 3 springs. [LATEX]\ddot{x_{a}}+2\omega_{o}^2x_{a}-\omega_{o}^2x_{b}=0[/LATEX] and [LATEX]\ddot{x_{b}}+2\omega_{o}^2x_{b}-\omega_{o}^2x_{a}=0[/LATEX] I use 2 trial functions [LATEX]q_{1}=Acos(\omega t)[/LATEX]and [LATEX] q_{2}=Bcos(\omega t)[/LATEX] and get two solutions for the normal mode frequencies: [LATEX]\omega_{-}=\omega_{o}[/LATEX]and [LATEX] \omega_{+}=\omega_{o}\sqrt{3}[/LATEX] Now to get the motion for [LATEX]x_{a},x_{b}[/LATEX], I am supposed to take: [LATEX]\frac{q_{1}+q_{2}}{2}[/LATEX]and [LATEX] \frac{q_{1}-q_{2}}{2}[/LATEX] My questions:…

Hey guys, Im trying to answer a study question for a Biochemistry lab. We pretty much isolated the enzyme acid phosphatase from wheat germ and measured its V0 (initial velocity). The question was "How much acid phosphatase is present in 1g of wheat germ?" Does anyone know how to go about answering this problem? Ive attached a copy of the lab if that helps.. I could use all the help i could get! Lab 4 - Enzyme Kinetics.doc

Im working on an assignment for my HND at the moment and stuck finding info for the last part of a question as follows: "parallel resonant circuits are very commenly used in telecommunications. Why are they prefered to series resonant circuits in telecommunications applications?" can anyone help? I would greatly appreciate it! thanks Mark

I'm having difficulty understanding what this problem is asking of me. "Does the Laplace transform have a fixed point? Is there a function [math]f(t)[/math] defined on [math] 0 < t < \infty [/math], such that [math] \int_{0}^{\infty} f(t)e^{-st} dt = f(s) [/math] There is an extra condition that [math]f[/math] is not identically 0." I can use Laplace transforms as a general rule, but I do not quite understand what they mean mathematically. This question seems to be addressing that mathematical meaning, if I'm reading it correctly. How should I go about starting this problem? What do I need to understand to solve this? Thanks.
