The acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of sucrose, C12H22O11 + H2O + H* -> C6H12O6 + C6H12O6 + H+ is known as “inversion of sucrose" because the angle, a, by which the solution rotates polarized light changes from positive to negative as the reaction proceeds (data from 30 degree C): t/hr a 0 78 2 71 4 12 18 24 42 48 65.10 44.60 32.40 22.45 2.30 -1.96 61 -9 86 95 00 -15.80 -17.25 -21.15 Use this data to show that the reaction is first order and determine its rate coefficient (at 30 degree C).

Suppose a chloride ion and a sodium ion are separated by a center–center distance of 5 Å. Is the interaction energy (the energy required to pull them infinitely far apart) predicted to be larger if the medium between them is water, or if it is n-pentane? If Ca 2+, Na+, and F - each have ionic radii ∙1.16. Which ionic bond is stronger: Ca-F or Na-F? If Ca 2+ is often bound on the surface of a protein by carboxylic acid functional groups. If the pKa of a particular ¬COOH group is 4.2, would you predict Ca 2+ to be most tightly bound at pH 8, pH 4.2, or pH 3? Explain your answer.

Chlorophyll absorbs photons strongly in two bands, one between 340 and 450 nm and the other between 650 and 680 nm. Chlorophyll collects and transfers the photon energy to fix CO2 into carbohydrate CH2O units according to CO2 + H2O → (CH2O) + O2 where the (CH2O) indicates one carbon unit of the carbohydrate. The average enthalpy change for the addition of a carbon unit to a carbohydrate is ΔH = 485 kJ/mol. What is the minimum number of 660 nm photons needed by chlorophyll to add a carbon unit to a carbohydrate? (Remember that there’s no such thing as a partial photon.)
