Answer: The body produce NADPH a reducing equivalents as antioxidants.

Explanation:

During the pentose phosphate pathway reducing equivalents like NADPH is produced which help to prevent oxidative stress. It reduces glutathione via glutathione reductase which converts reactive H2O2 to H2O by glutathione peroxidase.

What is the ratio of acetate ion to acetic acid (Ka = 1.76×10–5) in a solution containing these compounds at pH 4.38 ? Write you
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

0.43.

Explanation:

In order to solve this question we will need the an equation called Henderson-Hasselbalch Equation. The Henderson-Hasselbalch Equation can be represented by the reaction below;

pH= pKa + log ( [ A^- ] / [ HA] ).

Where HA is the acetic acid and A^- is the Acetate ion

We are given the pH value to be = 4.38 and the ka to be = 1.76×10^–5. So, we will use the value for the ka to find the pKa through the formula below.

pKa = - log ka.

Therefore, pKa = - log( 1.76×10^–5).

pKa= 4.75 + log

So,

4.38 = 4.75 + log ([ A^-] / [HA]).

4.38 - 4.75 = log ( [ A^- ] / [ HA] ).

( [ A^- ] / [ HA] ) = 10^- 0.37.

( [ A^- ] / [ HA] ) = 0.42657951880159265.

( [ A^- ] / [ HA] )= 0.43.

PCl5(g) ⇋ PCl3(g) + Cl2(g)
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

The total pressure in the container is 2 atm (Option B)

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

The initial pressure of the PCl5(g) is 1.00 atm

Volume of the container = 1.00 L

Step 2: The balanced equation

PCl5(g) ⇋ PCl3(g) + Cl2(g)

Step 3: Calculate the total pressure in the container

1mol of ideal gas has a pressure of 1 atm

If 1 mol of PCl5 completely decomposes into 1 mol PCl3 and 1 mol Cl2

Then the pressure for 1 mol PCl3 and 1 mol Cl2 is for both  1 atm

The total pressure would be 2*1 atm = 2 atm

The total pressure in the container is 2 atm
