1/4 mol = 0.25 mol
6 months = 0.5 year
rate = 0,25 mol / 0.5 year = 0.5 mol/year or approx 0.042 mol/month
Answer:
e. UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase catalyzes the reaction of glucose-I-phosphate and UTP to UDP-glucose and PPi
a. Pyrophosphatase converts PPi and water into two Pi
b. Glycogen synthase adds a glucose unit from UDP-glucose to glycogen, producing a larger glycogen molecule and UDP
Explanation:
Glycogen synthesis or glycogenesis is the process of synthesis of glycogen molecules from glucose molecules in living organisms. Glycogen is a polysaccharide storage form of glucose and helps to store excess glucose in the body form use when required by the body.
The synthesis of glycogen involves sugar nucleotides. Sugar nucleotides are compounds in which a sugar molecule is attached to a nucleotide through phosphate ester bond, resulting in the activation of the sugar molecule. The sugar nucleotides then are used as substrates for the polymerization of the monosaccharide sugars into disaccharides, oligosaccharides and polysaccharides.
In the synthesis of glycogen, glucose-6-phosphate from phosphorylation of free glucose by hexokinase is first isomerized to glucose-1-phosphate by phosphoglucomutase.
Glucose-1-phosphate is then converted to UDP-glucose by its reaction with UTP catalyse by UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase. The reaction is favoured by the rapid hydrolysis of PPi produced to two molecules of inorganic phosphate by the enzyme pyrophosphatase.
Glycogen synthase then adds a glucose unit from UDP-glucose to a growing chain of glycogen, producing a larger glycogen molecule and free UDP.
Answer:
D.
Explanation:
Carbon atoms are not strongly electronegative and tend to form covalent bonds.
Explanation:
An oxidizing agent is a reactant that removes electrons from other reactants during a redox reaction. The oxidizing agent typically takes these electrons for itself, thus gaining electrons and being reduced. An oxidizing agent is thus an electron acceptor.
Examples of Oxidizing Agents include the following; Hydrogen peroxide, ozone, oxygen.
A half-equation shows you what happens at one of the electrodes during electrolysis . Electrons are shown as e -. A half-equation is balanced by adding, or taking away, a number of electrons equal to the total number of charges on the ions in the equation.
The balanced half reaction equation for H2O2 as an oxidizing agent is given as;
H2O2 + 2e^- + 2H^+ ==> 2H2O
1,000 grams = 1 kilogram
20 grams = 0.02 kilogram
Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) x (speed)²
(1/2) (0.02) x (15)² =
(0.01) x (225) = 2.25 joules
