Answer:
c. decarboxylation of an a-keto acid.
Explanation:
Decarboxylation refers to the removal of the carboxyl group from a carboxylic acid and thus releasing carbon dioxide. Decarboxylases are enzymes that speed up the removal of the carboxyl group from acids. These reactants could be amino acids, alpha-keto acids, and beta-keto acids. Biotin is known to catalyze the decarboxylation of malonyl CoA to acetyl CoA during fatty acid synthesis.
Malonyl CoA is converted to acetyl CoA after decarboxylation assisted by biotin also known as Vitamin H. Alpha keto acids are involved in fatty acids synthesis and Malonyl CoA is an alpha-keto acid because the keto group is located in the first carbon near the carboxylic acid group. Keto acids have both a carboxyl group and a ketone group.
Actions form positive ions while anions forms negative
Answer:
is an aqueous reactant
is a liquid product
is a gaseous product
Explanation:
⇔ 
Hydrogen carbonate dissocates to form carbon dioxide and water. The acid (hydrogen carbonate) is in aqueous form and it dissociates to water (liquid) and carbon dioxide (a gas). It is also seen that the hydrogen carbonate is on the reactant side and it dissociates to produce water and carbon dioxide.
