Answer:

Explanation:
The metabolic pathway by which energy can be obtained from a fatty acid is called <u>"beta-oxidation"</u>. In this route, acetyl-Coa is produced by removing <u>2 carbons</u> 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 <u>number of rounds</u> that will take place for an <u>18-carbon fatty</u> acid using the following equation:

Where "n" is the <u>number of carbons</u>, in this case "18", so:

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

Now, we have to keep in mind that in each round in the beta-oxidation we will have the <u>production of 1
and 1
</u>. So, if we have 8 rounds we will have 8
and 8
.
Finally, for the total calculation of ATP. We have to remember the <u>yield for each compound</u>:
-)
-) 
-) 
Now we can do the total calculation:

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

In total, we will have 128 ATP.

The word equation for this reaction is:
Iron + Tin nitrate → Iron nitrate + Tin
The volume occupied by the gas in the container is 1 m³
Boyles law applies
P₁ V₁ = P₂ V₂
Where P₁ = 200kpa
P₂ = 300kpa
if its initial volume is 1.5
then,
P₁ V₁ = P₂ V₂
200 × 1.5 = 300 × V₂
V₂ = 200 × 1.5 / 300
= 1 m³
Hence the volume occupied by the gas container is 1 m³

the pressure of the gas increases
Answer:
40.4 kJ
Explanation:
Step 1: Given data
- Heat of sublimation of CO₂ (ΔH°sub): 32.3 kJ/mol
Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 55.0 g of CO₂
The molar mass of CO₂ is 44.01 g/mol.
n = 55.0 g × 1 mol/44.01 g = 1.25 mol
Step 3: Calculate the heat (Q) required to sublimate 1.25 moles of CO₂
We will use the following expression.
Q = n × ΔH°sub
Q = 1.25 mol × 32.3 kJ/mol = 40.4 kJ
