Answer: The correct answer is D.

Explanation:

As you can see in every step of the pathway, ATP is not generated directly. Although, in the oxidative phase, molecules of NADPH are produced and these can be used for synthesize ATP indirectly; the NADPH molecules are hihgly demanded in tissues that carry out constantly synthesis of fatty acids, such as liver.

Therefore the correct answer is D.

Sulfur hexafluoride, SF6, is a colorless, odorless, very unreactive gas. Calculate the pressure (in atm) exerted by 2.02 moles o
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

9.15 atm

Explanation:

Ideal gas equation of state PV=nRT

P in hPa, V in L, n in mol, R is a constant which is 83.1 hpa*L/mol*k, T in kelvin.

Plug in all the number, and we will get:

P*6.21=2.02*83.1*343

P =9271.6(in hpa)=9.15 atm

One application of Hess's Law (which works for ΔH, ΔS, and ΔG) is calculating the overall energy of a reaction using standard en
VikaD [51]

Answer:

The standard change in free energy for the reaction =  - 437.5 kj/mole

Explanation:

The standard change in free energy for the reaction:

                              4 KClO₃ (s) → 3 KClO₄(s) + KCl(s)

Given that   ΔGf(KClO3(s)) = -290.9 kJ/mol;

                    ΔGf(KClO4(s)) = -300.4 kJ/mol;

                    ΔGf(KCl(s)) = -409 kJ/mol

According to Hess's law

ΔGr (Free energy change of reaction)= ∑(Product free energy - reactant free energy)

               ⇒ ΔGr⁰ = {3 x (-300.4) + (-409)} - {3 x (- 290.9)}

                            = - 901.2 - 409 + 872.7

                            =  - 437.5 kj/mole

7nadin3 [17]
The part of the atom that is involved in chemical changes is A. electron. The electrons that are in the most outer shells are called valence electrons which are easily removed or shared to form bonds. Valence electrons are related to the number of valence electrons

Zanzabum

Answer:

6.67 moles

Explanation:

Given that:-

Moles of hydrogen gas produced = 10.0 moles

According the reaction shown below:-

2Al + 6HCl\rightarrow 2AlCl_3 +3H_2

3 moles of hydrogen gas are produced when 2 moles of aluminium undergoes reaction.

Also,

1 mole of hydrogen gas are produced when \frac{2}{3} moles of aluminium undergoes reaction.

So,

10.0 moles of hydrogen gas are produced when \frac{2}{3}\times 10.0 moles of aluminium undergoes reaction.

<u>Moles of Al needed  = \frac{2}{3}\times 10.0 moles = 6.67 moles</u>
