The question above is incomplete, the full question is given below:
What additional test would be needed to establish the exact position of hydrogen in the activity series of the following elements: magnesium, zinc, lead, copper and silver.

ANSWER
The position of hydrogen on a reactivity series can be determined by its ability to displace oxygen from the oxide of the metal concerned. If hydrogen is more reactive than a metal, it will displace oxygen from the metal oxide and reduce the metal oxide to its metal. If the metal is more reactive than hydrogen, hydrogen will not be able to reduce the metal oxide to its metal.

<span>Hydrogen is a tricky one due because
1. It has one electron.
2. Because of it having one electron and or tibial theory it is only half a shell due.

With hydrogen have one electron in its outer shell and it's being half full for it to become stable, it can either gain one electron to have a full shell or it can easily lose an electron, though the shell is at its lowest energy level.
Under the right condition, Hydrogen can react as a cation and an anion.</span>

Calculate total ATP produced from a fatty acid of 32 carbons

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

Total number of ATP molecules generated from a 32-carbon fatty acid = 206 ATP molecules

Explanation:

A 32 carbon fatty acid which undergoes complete beta-oxidation assuming that the fatty acid is fully saturated will pass through the beta-oxidation cycle 14 times to produce the following:

15 molecules of acetylCoA, 14 molecules of FADH₂, and 14 molecules of NADH.

Each of the 15 acetylCoA molecules can be further oxidized in the citric acid cycle to yield the following: 15 × 3 NADH; 15 × 1 FADH₂, and 15 ATP molecules from the substrate level phosphorylation occuring at the succinylCoA synthetase catalyzed-reaction.

Total FADH₂ produced = 15 + 14 = 29 molecules of FADH₂

Total NADH produced = 45 + 14 = 59 molecules of NADH

The FADH₂ and NADH will each donate a pair of electrons to the electron transfer flavoprotein and mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase respectively of the electron transport chain, and about 1.5 and 2.5 molecules of ATP are generated respectively when these electrons are transfered to molecular oxygen.

Thus, number of molecules of ATP generated by 29 molecules of FADH₂ = 1.5 × 29 = 43.5 molecules of ATP.

Number of molecules of ATP generated by 59 molecules of NADH = 2.5 × 59 = 147.5

Sum of ATP generated from FADH₂ and NADH = 43.5 + 147.5 = 191 ATP molecules

Total number of ATP molecules generated = 191 + 15 = 206 ATP molecules

Total number of ATP molecules generated from a 32-carbon fatty acid = 206 ATP molecules

The specific heat of copper metal is 0. 385 J/(g °C). How much energy must be added to a 35. 0-gram sample of copper to change t

Rus_ich [418]

The amount of heat required for changing the temperature of copper has been 606 J. Thus, option B is correct.

Specific heat has been defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of substance by 1 degree Celsius.

The heat required to raise the temperature has been expressed as:

$\rm Heat=mass\;\times\;specific\;heat\;\times\;Change\;in\;temperature$

<h3>Computation for the heat energy required</h3>

The given specific heat of copper has been $\rm 0.385\;J/g^\circ C$

The mass of copper has been, $\rm 35\;g$

The initial temperature of copper has been, $\rm 20^\circ C$

The final temperature of copper has been, $\rm 65^\circ C$

The change in temperature has been, $\Delta T$

$\Delta T=\text{Final\;temperature-Initial\;temperature}\\\Delta T =65^\circ \text C-20^\circ \text C\\\Delta T=45^\circ \text C$

Substituting the values for the heat required as:

$\rm Heat=35\;g\;\times\;0.385\;J/g^\circ C\;\times\;45^\circ C\\Heat=606\;J$

The amount of heat required for changing the temperature of copper has been 606 J. Thus, option B is correct.

Disadvantages of Mendeleev's periodic table

mestny [16]

Answer:

Various limitations of Mendeleev's periodic table are:-

Position of hydrogen - he couldn't assign a correct position to hydrogen as it showed properties of both alkali and halogens .

Position of isotopes - he considered that the properties of elements are a function of their atomic masses. Hence isotopes of a same element couldn't be placed.

In the d-block , elements with lower atomic number were placed before higher atomic number.
