Given the information below, which is more favorable energetically, the oxidation of succinate to fumarate by NAD+ or by FAD? Fu

marate + 2H+ + 2e- → Succinate E°´ = 0.031 V NAD+ + 2H+ + 2e- → NADH + H+ E°´ = -0.320 FAD + 2H+ + 2e- → FADH2 E°´ = -0.219

Answer:

Oxidation with FAD is more favorable energetically.

Explanation:

With FAD as the electron acceptor;

∆E'° = (E'° from reduction reaction) – (E'° from oxidation reaction)

∆E'° = (-0.219) - 0.031 = -0.25 V

The standard free energy change, ∆G'° = -nF∆E'° ; where n is number of moles of electrons = 2, F is Faraday's constant = 96.5 KJ/V.mol

∆G'° = -2 × 96.5 KJ/V.mol × (-0.25)

∆G'° = 48.25 KJ/mol

With NAD+ as electron acceptor

∆E'° = (E'° from reduction reaction) – (E'° from oxidation reaction)

∆E'° = (-0.320) - 0.031 = -0.351 V

The standard free energy change, ∆G'° = -nF∆E'° ; n = 2, F = 96.5 KJ/V.mol

∆G'° = -2 × 96.5 KJ/V.mol × (-0.351)

∆G'° = 67.74 KJ/mol

From the above values obtained, the oxidation by FAD is more favorable energetically as the free energy is less positive than with NAD+

Suppose that some FeSCN2+ is added to the above solution to shift the equilibrium. When equilibrium is re-established, the follo
kiruha [24]

Explanation:

The given reaction equation will be as follows.

          [FeSCN^{2+}] \rightleftharpoons [Fe^{3+}] + [SCN^{-}]

Let is assume that at equilibrium the concentrations of given species are as follows.

        [Fe^{3+}] = 8.17 \times 10^{-3} M

        [SCN^{-}] = 8.60 \times 10^{-3} M

        [FeSCN^{2+}] = 6.25 \times 10^{-2} M

Now, first calculate the value of K_{eq} as follows.

     K_{eq} = \frac{[Fe^{3+}][SCN^{-}]}{[FeSCN^{2+}]}

              = \frac{8.17 \times 10^{-3} \times 8.60 \times 10^{-3}}{6.25 \times 10^{-2}}

              = 11.24 \times 10^{-4}

Now, according to the concentration values at the re-established equilibrium the value for [FeSCN^{2+}] will be calculated as follows.

             K_{eq} = \frac{[Fe^{3+}][SCN^{-}]}{[FeSCN^{2+}]}

        11.24 \times 10^{-4} = \frac{8.12 \times 10^{-3} \times 7.84 \times 10^{-3}}{[FeSCN^{2+}]}

         [FeSCN^{2+}] = 5.66 \times 10^{-2} M

Thus, we can conclude that the concentration of [FeSCN^{2+}] in the new equilibrium mixture is 5.66 \times 10^{-2} M.

3. How would you expect the density of the gummy bear to change if you soaked it in isopropanol (rubbing alcohol, density
77julia77 [94]

Change occurs in the density of the gummy bear to change if we soaked it in isopropanol.

<h3>Effects on density by soaking isopropanol</h3>

We expect the density of the gummy bear to change if we soaked it in isopropanol because the gummy bear absorb the liquid which increase its density due to increasing weight of the gummy bear.

If a substance gains weight then its density also increases and we know that when the gummy bear was soaked in the isopropanol then its weight increases so its density is also changes so we can conclude that change occurs in the density of the gummy bear to change if we soaked it in isopropanol.

What phrase from the Preamble justifies a law like the Affordable Care Act?
Alexandra [31]
<span>The Affordable Care Act which was instated during Barack Obama´s presidency and is sometimes known as Obamacare is justified by the phrase ¨for the general welfare¨ in the Preamble. This concept can be defined as holding the US government responsable for providing care for all people, not just a few elites. Therefore the Affordable Care Act, which aims to increase access to healthcare to all Americans is adhering to this phrase.</span>
