stepladder [879]3 years ago
3 0

If it is saturated compound then we can calculate the double bond equivalent which will be equal to the number of rings in the compound

the double bond equivalent can be calculated using following formula

DBE = (C + 1 -\frac{H}{2} - \frac{X}{2} +\frac{N}{2} )

Where

H = number of Hydrogen atoms

C = number of carbon atoms

X= number of halogen atoms

N = number of nitrogen atoms

DBE = (10 + 1  - 16 / 2 ) = 3

Hence there are three rings in the compound

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

Follows are the solution to this question:

Explanation:

Methane inlet humidity content of =7.00\%

Methane moisture outlet content =0.05\%

Zeolite absorption humidity = 6.95\%

Dry zeolite 1 kg will accommodate water= 0.1000 \ kg

One kilogram of Dry Zeolite will carry water from =0.1000\ kg

The water can contain 1000 kg of zeolite = 100 \ kg

Methane which would be made =\frac{100}{6.95\%}= 1,439 \ kg

That's why it will be producing 1439 kg of methane.

When NAD becomes NADH, it is being reduced and gaining chemical energy.

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD), a coenzyme, can exist in two forms, NAD⁺ (oxidized) and NADH (reduced form).

Electrons and protons released in catabolism reactions are attached to NAD⁺. The conversion of NAD⁺ to NADH is important reaction for production of ATP during the cellular respiration.

Reduction is lowering oxidation number because element, ion or compound gain electrons.

Chemical equation for reaction of reduction of NAD⁺ (see picture below):

NAD⁺ + 2e⁻ + H⁺ → NADH

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) is made of two nucleosides joined by pyrophosphate.

Explain why in the early morning just before dawn breaks, the temperature of the air
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

Once the sun comes up, the sunlight excites the cold air in the first foot or so above the ground (which can be 10 or more degrees colder), which causes it to move around and mix into the next several feet of air. That “mixing upward” drops the temperature of the air at thermometer level.

Name one alternative pathway to glycolysis: _______________________
NemiM [27]

solution:

The Enter–Doudoroff pathway describes an alternate series of reactions that catabolize glucose to pyruvate using a set of enzymes different from those used in either glycolysis or the pentose phosphate pathway. .... Most bacteria use glycolysis and the pentose phosphate pathway.
