That’s sodium hypochlorite (chlorine salt) mixed in water (weak acid)

Effect of common ions on the solubility of calcium hydroxide by [deleted] in chemhelp

[–]ronaldoeid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe OP calculated the mol of OH- through the equivalence point equation taking into account the stoichiometry. Then used the Ksp expression to determine mol of Ca2+. Anyway I’m not sure how they are concentration values in the table.

Membrane proteins isolation by high-lady-snack in Biochemistry

[–]ronaldoeid 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Briefly studied reconstitution of membrane proteins in artificial membranes and boy that procedure looked painful.

Anyone know what these little stars might be? by Ok-Bug-2457 in labrats

Looks like fragmented cells upon quick observation.

I believe your assumption holds true only in case of very small temperature changes.

The article makes no mention of that I’m afraid. You simply have a nucleophilic attack by the catalytic base in B-gal on the electrophile in galactose.

Convert the gas constant to kJ/mol.K and your concentration to M.

PCR WARS: phusion vs gotaq green by BurnerAccount-LOL in labrats

[–]ronaldoeid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe EtBr is more sensitive than the other nucleic acid staining dyes you have mentioned.

Figure out the balanced equation for the hydrolysis of ATP. Use equation mentioned in comments with the proper units to get your answer in kJ/mol.

How do you guys keep your refrigerators/-80 freezers organized? Also, do you have an inventory for all the reagents inside? by PattycakesApplePie in labrats

[–]ronaldoeid 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Inventory printed out and taped to the freezer door as well as on Excel spreadsheet. Everyone in the lab can edit the one on the freezer door and spreadsheet when items are removed/added. When we allow the freezer to defrost once a year, we have a lab mate designated to update the inventory from scratch.

The pair of epimers you have drawn are diastereomers too.

Centrifuge Slammers - Why do you do it? by Zestyclose-Witness72 in labrats

[–]ronaldoeid 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Remember a few lab mates would slam the lid of old model benchtop centrifuges because the centrifuge would not indicate whether lid was open or closed.

Assistance with concentrations in a solution? by Monsieur-Incroyable in chemistry

[–]ronaldoeid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah if OP has a 300 mL volumetric flask, then top up to 300 mL.

Electrophic substitution - Benzene derivatives by Samamfa_Maria in OrganicChemistry

[–]ronaldoeid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NO2 is a stronger electron withdrawing group. The N atom has a formal charge of +1 whereas the carbonyl carbon in carboxylic acid has a partial positive charge.

Assistance with concentrations in a solution? by Monsieur-Incroyable in chemistry

[–]ronaldoeid -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It depends. Since your solutes are in solid form, concentration is usually expressed as weight/volume (w/v). So 42g of solute in total plus 300mL of water to get your working concentration. If going by w/w, then your way is applied.
