To treat certain forms of cancer, physicians may choose to irradiate the body with high-energy radiation. why does this therapy work?

For the following dehydrohalogenation (e2) reaction, draw the zaitsev product(s) resulting from elimination involving c3–c4 (i. e., the carbon atoms depicted with stereobonds). show the product stereochemistry clearly. if there is more than one organic product, both products may be drawn in the same box. ignore elimination involving c3 or c4 and any carbon atom other than c4 or c3.

Light waves can move through , but they travel fastest when they move through a(n) .

Achemist at a pharmaceutical company is measuring equilibrium constants for reactions in which drug candidate molecules bind to a protein involved in cancer. the drug molecules bind the protein in a 1: 1 ratio to form a drug-protein complex. the protein concentration in aqueous solution at 25 ˚c is 1.74 x10-6 m . drug a is introduced into the protein solution at an initial concentration of 2.00 x10-6m. drug b is introduced into a separate, identical protein solution at an initial concentration of 2.00 x10-6m. at equilibrium, the drug a-protein solution has an a-protein complex concentration of 1.00 x10-6m, and the drug b solution has a b-protein complex concentration of 1.40 x10-6m. a. calculate the kc value for the a-protein binding reaction. b. calculate the kc value for the b-protein binding reaction. c. assuming that the drug that binds more strongly will be more effective, which drug is the better choice for further research?
