What two properties affect the density of ocean water?

If each NADHNADH generates 3 ATPATP molecules and each FADH2FADH2 generates 2 ATPATP molecules, calculate the number of ATPATP m

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

$128~ATP$

Explanation:

The metabolic pathway by which energy can be obtained from a fatty acid is called "beta-oxidation". In this route, acetyl-Coa is produced by removing 2 carbons from the fatty acid for each acetyl-Coa produced. In other words, for each round, 1 acetyl Coa is produced and for each round 2 carbons are removed from the initial fatty acid. Therefore, the first step is to calculate the number of rounds that will take place for an 18-carbon fatty acid using the following equation:

$Number~of~Rounds=\frac{n}{2}-1$

Where "n" is the number of carbons, in this case "18", so:

$Number~of~Rounds=\frac{18}{2}-1~=~8$

We also have to calculate the amount of Acetyl-Coa produced:

$Number~of~Acetyl-Coa=\frac{18}{2}~=~9$

Now, we have to keep in mind that in each round in the beta-oxidation we will have the production of 1 $FADH_2$ and 1 $NADH$ . So, if we have 8 rounds we will have 8 $FADH_2$ and 8 $NADH$ .

Finally, for the total calculation of ATP. We have to remember the yield for each compound:

-) $1~FADH_2~=~2~ATP$

-) $1~NADH~=~3~ATP$

-) $Acetyl~CoA~=~10~ATP$

Now we can do the total calculation:

$(8*2)~+~(8*3)~+~(9*10)=130~ATP$

We have to subtract "2 ATP" molecules that correspond to the activation of the fatty acid, so:

$130-2=128~ATP$

In total, we will have 128 ATP.

I hope it helps!

A combustion analysis of 5.214 g of a compound yields 5.34 g co 2 , 1.09 g h 2 o, and 1.70 g n 2 . if the molar mass of th

nekit [7.7K]

Answer is: C₃H₃N₃O₃.
Chemical reaction: CₓHₓNₓOₓ + O₂ → aCO₂ + x/2H₂ + x/2N₂.
m(CₐHₓNₓ) = 5,214 g.
m(CO₂) = 5,34 g.
m(H₂) = 1,09 g.
m(N₂) = 1,70 g.
n(CO₂) = n(C) = 5,34 g ÷ 44 g/mol = 0,121 mol.
n(H₂O) = 1,09 g ÷18 g/mol = 0,06 mol.
n(H) = 2 · 0,0605 mol = 0,121 mol.
n(N₂) = 1,7 g ÷ 28 g/mol = 0,0607 mol.
n(N) = 0,0607 mol · 2 = 0,121 mol.
n(C) : n(H) : n(N) = 0,121 mol : 0,121 mol : 0,121 mol /: 0,121
n(C) : n(H) : n(N) = 1 : 1 : 1.
M(CHN) = 27 g/mol.
m(O₂) = 8,13 g - 5,214 g = 2,914 g.
n(O₂) = 2,914 g ÷ 32 g/mol = 0,09 mol.
n(CₓHₓNₓOₓ) = 5,214 g ÷ 129,1 g/mol = 0,0404 mol.
n(CₓHₓNₓOₓ) : n(CO₂) = 1 : 3.

When the following equation is balanced with the lowest whole number coefficients possible, what is the coefficient in front of

Anastaziya [24]

Given: C3H8(g) + O2(g) ----> CO2 (g) + H2O (g)

Step : Put a 3 in front of CO2 (g) to balance C

=> C3H8(g) + O2(g) ----> 3CO2 + H2O to balance H

Step 2: Put a 4 in front of H2O

=> C3H8 (g) + O2(g) -----> 3CO2 (g) + 4H2O (g)

Step 3: Given that there are 3*2 + 4 = 10 O to the right side, put a 5 in front of O2 to balance O:

=> C3H8(g) + 5O2(g) -----> 3CO2(g) + 4H2O(g)

You can verify that the equation is balanced.

So, the answer is that the coefficient in front of O2 is 5.
