(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

For the given each molecule the index hydrogen deficiency value has to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

The Index of Hydrogen Deficiency (IHD) is otherwise called as units of unsaturation. IHD gives the count of number of Hydrogen molecules that are needed to add to a structure in order to form the corresponding saturated acyclic compound. Hence, the count of number of rings and multiple bonds seen in the structure are taken in consideration.

There are two ways of using IHD

  1. 1) From a drawn structure: The number of rings and π bonds present are counted. The π bonds containing heteroatom (such as Oxygen, Nitrogen etc.,) are counted the same way as all Carbon bonds are counted.
  2. 2) From the molecular formula: The IHD can also be given from molecular formula. The following generic molecular formula CcHhNnOoXx , then IHD equation can be derived ,

    IHD=0.5×[2c+2-h-x+n]

HDI= ( 2C+2+N-H-X)2

The activity of an enzyme requires a glutamic acid to display its -COOH functional group in the protonated state. Suppose the pK, of the -COOH group is 4.07. (a) Will the enzyme be more active at pH 3.5 or 4.5? Explain. (b) What fraction of the enzymes will be active at pH = 4.07? Explain. (c) At what pH will the enzyme show 78% of maximal activity?
Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are commonly prescribed antidepressants. SSRIs block the reabsorption of the neurotransmitter serotonin in the brain. Changing the balance of serotonin helps brain cells send and receive chemical messages, which in turn boosts mood. Two SSRI medications are Faverin (fluvoxamine, C15H21F3N2O2 ) and Zoloft (sertraline, C17H17Cl2N ). Determine the molar masses of Faverin and Zoloft
