In which cell structure does MOST of the process of cellular respiration take place?

1 answer:

6 0

Mitochondria are rod-shaped organelles are basically considered the power producers of the cell, it converts oxygen and nutrients into adenosine triphosphate or ATP, which is the chemical energy,also known as "currency" of the cell which powers the metabolic actions of the cell. This process is called aerobic respiration and it is the reason animals breathe oxygen. Cellular repiration happens in the mitochodrion. The 3 phases of cellular respiration are Krebs Cycle, Electron Transport and Glycolysis (Fermentation). Glycolysis takes place in the cytoplasm while the Krebs cycle and electron transport take place in the mitochondria.

What is the % dissociation of a solution of acetic acid if at equilibrium the solution has a pH = 4.74 and a pKa = 4.74?

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

$\% diss = 50\%$

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, when considering weak acids which have an associated percent dissociation, we first need to set up the ionization reaction and the equilibrium expression:

$HA\rightleftharpoons H^++A^-\\\\Ka=\frac{[H^+][A^-]}{[HA]}$

Now, by introducing x as the reaction extent which also represents the concentration of both H+ and A-, we have:

$Ka=\frac{x^2}{[HA]_0-x} =10^{-4.74}=1.82x10^{-5}$

Thus, it is possible to find x given the pH as shown below:

$x=10^{-pH}=10^{-4.74}=1.82x10^{-5}M$

So that we can calculate the initial concentration of the acid:

$\frac{(1.82x10^{-5})^2}{[HA]_0-1.82x10^{-5}} =1.82x10^{-5}\\\\\frac{1.82x10^{-5}}{[HA]_0-1.82x10^{-5}} =1\\\\$

$[HA]_0=3.64x10^{-5}M$

Therefore, the percent dissociation turns out to be:

$\% diss=\frac{x}{[HA]_0}*100\% \\\\\% diss=\frac{1.82x10^{-5}M}{3.64x10^{-5}M}*100\% \\\\\% diss = 50\%$

Best regards!

If an element has a mass number of 222 and an atomic number of 86, how

svlad2 [7]

Answer:

136

Explanation:

The Mass Number is the combination of the amount of Protons and Neutrons in an element, so if the total mass is 222, and the amount of protons is 86, then you can do 86 + x = 222 to find that x is equal to 136

A covalent bond describes two atoms (most likely nonmetals) that share their valence electrons to satisfy the octet rule. Carbon and oxygen are both nonmetals, and they would share electrons with each other through a bond that is not polar enough to be considered ionic. The answer should be B
