The last intermediate in citric acid cycle is Oxaloacetic acid.

<h3>What is Citric Acid Cycle?</h3>

Organic molecule HOC(CO2H)(CH2CO2H)2 is the chemical formula for citric acid. It is a weak organic acid that is colorless. Citrus fruits naturally contain it. It is a biochemical intermediary in the citric acid cycle, which is a component of all aerobic organisms' metabolism.

Every year, more than two million tons of citric acid are produced. It is frequently used as a flavoring, an acidifier, and a chelating agent.

Citrates, which include salts, esters, and the polyatomic anion present in solution, are derivatives of citric acid. Trisodium citrate is an example of the former; triethyl citrate is an example of an ester.

What is the volume of 15.2 grams of SO2 at STP?

kiruha [24]

5.512 litres is the volume of 15.2 grams of sulphur dioxide gas at STP.

Explanation:

Data given:

mass of sulphur dioxide = 15.2 grams

conditions is at STP whech means volume = 22.4 litres

atomic mass of sulphur dioxide = 64.06 grams/mole

Number of moles is calculated as:

number of moles = $\frac{mas}{atomic mass of 1 mole}$

Putting the values in the equation:

number of moles = $\frac{15.2}{64.06}$

= 0.23 moles

Assuming that sulphur dioxide behaves as an ideal gas, we can calculate the volume as:

When 1 mole of sulphur dioxide occupies 22.4 litres at STP

Then 0.23 moles of sulphur dioxide occupies 22.4 x 0.23

= 5.152 litres is the volume.

Which of the following CANNOT be determined by looking at the spectra of a star? *

Rzqust [24]

Answer:

A:temperature

Explanation:

The temperature cannot be determined by looking at the spectra of the star due to lack of the equipment for its measurement. <em>On the other-hand, the remaining statements like the distance from earth, movement towards or away from earth can be determined.</em>

What is the volume of 2.1 moles of chlorine gas (Cl2) at standard temperature and pressure (STP)?

uysha [10]

Given:
<span> 2.1 moles of chlorine gas (Cl2) at standard temperature and pressure (STP)
Required:
volume of CL2
Solution:
Use the ideal gas law
PV = nRT
V = nRT/P
V = (2.1 moles Cl2) (0.08203 L - atm / mol - K) (273K) / (1 atm)
V = 47 L</span>
