The alpha- ketoglutarate is the  5-carbon intermediate of the citric acid cycle which converted to a 4-carbon molecule with the release of carbon dioxide

The first decarboxylation reaction in Krebs cycle ( known as  citric acid cycle ) is catalyzed by isocitrate dehydrogenase in which one six carbon atoms compound isocitrate is decarboxylated to yield five carbon atom containing alpha ketoglutaric acid.

The alpha- ketoglutarate is the  5-carbon intermediate of the citric acid cycle which is salt of alpha ketoglutaric acid. The last reaction in the citric acid cycle produces a product that is a substrate for the first reaction of the citric acid cycle.

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Electro negativity refers to the ability of an atom in a molecule to attract the shared pair of electrons of a bond closer to itself.

In a molecule, the polarity of bonds is determined by the relative electro negativity of the bonding atoms. If the difference in electro negativity between the atoms in a bond is significant, such a bond is polar in nature e.g H-Cl, H-Br, C-F, etc.

However, the occurrence of polar bonds in a molecule alone does not guarantee the polarity of the molecule. The polarity of a molecule also depends on the shape of the molecule since dipole moment is a vector quantity.

A molecule is polar when the resultant dipole moment which is determined by the shape of the molecule is non zero.

For instance, CO2 contains two polar C-O bonds but the molecule is non polar because the two dipole moments cancel out. Also, symmetrical molecules are nonpolar irrespective of the presence of polar bonds in the molecule.

Some organic solvents do not work well in liquid-liquid aqueous extractions. Ethanol (HOCH2CH3) is a common inexpensive solvent,
erica [24]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Extraction has to do with the separation of the components of a mixture by dissolving the mixture in a set up involving two phases. One phase is the aqueous phase (beneath) while the other is the organic phase (on top). The solvents used for the two phases must not be miscible. Water commonly is used for the aqueous phase.

Ethanol is an important solvent in chemistry but the solvent is miscible with water in all proportions. As a result of this, ethanol is a poor solvent for carrying out extraction.
