Answer:
Al₄O₅
Explanation:
The key at the bottom tells us the blue spheres are oxygen atoms and the red spheres are aluminum atoms. By counting, there are 4 aluminum atoms and 5 oxygen atoms. Therefore, the formula is Al₄O₅.
Answer: seen below.
Explanation: since the different means use in treating rabbit muscle mitochondria containing PDH complex. I will give different reactions that occurs.
The mitochondria preparation responds as follow;
Active pyruvate dehydrogenase (dephosphorylated) is converted to inactive pyruvate dehydrogenase (phosphorylated) and the rate of conversion of pyruvate to acetyl-CoA decreases.
The phosphoryl group on pyruvate dehydrogenase (dephosphorylated) phosphate is removed enzymatically to give active pyruvate dephosphorylated which increases the rate of conversion of pyruvate to acetyl-CoA.
Malonate inhibit succinate dehydrogenase, and citrate accumulates. Accumulation of this citrate inhibits citrate synthase, and acetyl-CoA accumulates. Increased level of this acetyl-CoA inhibits pyruvate dephosphorylated and the rate of conversion of pyruvate to acetyl-CoA decreases.
Sodium has a noble gas configuration, plus a single high energy 3s1 electron. This electron is more stable when associated with more electronegative atoms and polyatomic ions. Therefore, sodium loses a single electron (losing a negative charge, granting the sodium atom a +1 charge). Positive and negative charges attract each other in order to balance out the charge (reach a low energy state), so two +1 sodium atoms need to associate with either two separate -1 charges, or a single -2 charge. The only polyatomic listed here that satisfies the -2 (formally written 2-) needed to attract both sodium atoms is the Carbonate ion, CO3(2-).
