GENERAL BIOCHEMISTRY Problem Set No. 1 Answered by: Andrea Rose A. Fajardo of BSFT 2-1N 1. Calculate the pH of a dilute solution that contains a molar ratio of potassium acetate to acetic acid (pKa=4.76) of: a. 2:1 pH = 4.76 + log[2]/[1] = 4.76 + 0.3010 = 5.06 b. 1:4 pH = 4.76 + log[1]/[4] = 4.76 + (-0.6021) = 4.16 c. 6:5 pH = 4.76 + log[6]/[5] = 4.76 + 0.0792

Linear Regression & Best Line Analysis Linear regression is used to make predictions about a single value. Linear regression involves discovering the equation for a line that most nearly fits the given data. That linear equation is then used to predict values for the data. A popular method of using the Linear Regression is to construct Linear Regression Channel lines. Developed by Gilbert Raff‚ the channel is constructed by plotting two parallel‚ middle lines above and below a Linear Regression
