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

Chemical Bonding Chemical compounds are formed by the joining of two or more atoms. A stable compound occurs when the total energy of the combination has lower energy than the separated atoms. The bound state implies a net attractive force between the atoms ... a chemical bond. The two extreme cases of chemical bonds are: Covalent bond: bond in which one or more pairs of electrons are shared by two atoms. Ionic bond: bond in which one or more electrons from one atom are removed and attached to
