Answer:

See detailed answer with explanation below.

Explanation:

Valence electrons are electrons found on the outermost shell of an atom. They are the electrons in an atom that participate in chemical combination. Recall that the outermost shell of an atom is also referred to as its valence shell. Let us consider an example; if we look at the atom, sodium-11, its electronic configuration is 2,8,1. The last one electron is the valence electron of sodium which is found in its outermost or valence shell.

Positive ions are formed when electrons are lost from the valence shell of an atom. For instance, if the outermost electron in sodium is lost, we now form the sodium ion Na^+ which is a positive ion. Positive ions possess less number of electrons compared to their corresponding atoms.

Negative ions are formed when one or more electrons is added to the valence shell of an atom. A negative ion possesses more electrons than its corresponding atom. For example, chlorine(Cl) contains 17 electrons but the chloride ion (Cl^-) contains 18 electrons.

In molecular compounds, a bond is formed when two electrons are shared between the bonding atoms. Each bonding atom may contribute one of the shared electrons (ordinary covalent bond) or one of the bonding atoms may provide the both shared electrons (coordinate covalent bond). The shared pair may be located at an equidistant position to the nucleus of both atoms. Similarly, the electron may be drawn closer to the nucleus of one atom than the other (polar covalent bond) depending on the electro negativity of the two bonding atoms.

The electrons are shared in order to complete the octet of each atom by so doing, the both bonding atoms now obey the octet rule. For example, two chlorine atoms may come together to form a covalent bond in which each chlorine atom has an octet of electrons on its outermost shell.

In which mutation does one base take the place of another?

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer: A substitution is a mutation that exchanges one base for another (i.e., a change in a single "chemical letter" such as switching an A to a G). Such a substitution could: change a codon to one that encodes a different amino acid and cause a small change in the protein produced.

Explanation: I know this is correct just trust me and please mark me as brainiest.

Calculate the amount of ATP in kg that is turned over by a resting human every 24 hours. Assume that a typical human contains ~5

valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is 66.35 kilograms.

Explanation:

Based on the data given in the question, the energy consumed by the body of a human being is 50%. Based on the given data, the energy consumed in a day is 8000 kJ, 50 percent is the energy transfer efficiency. Thus, the consumption of total energy is 4000 kJ, and for the transformation of ADP to ATP, the energy involved is 30.6 kJ per mole.

Hence, the total ATP produced in the process is,

ATP = 4000 kJ / 30.6 kJ/mol

= 130.7189 mol.

Thus, with the energy transfer efficiency of 50 percent, the total moles of ATP produced is 130.7 mol.

The mass of ATP can be calculated by using the formula,

moles = mass/molecular mass

The molecular mass of ATP is 507.18 g per mol

Now by putting the values we get,

mass of ATP = 130.7189 mol * 507.18 g/mol

= 66298.011 g or 66.298 kg

It is mentioned that human comprise 50 g of ATP or 0.05 kg of ATP. Therefore, the sum of the available ATP will be.

= Total production of ATP + Total ATP available

= 66.298 kg + 0.05 kg

= 66.348 kg

Hence, the sum of the ATP that is turned over by a resting human in a day is 66.35 kg.
