What does chemistry have to do with drug testing

diamong [38]

Answer:

Forensic drug chemists analyze samples of unknown materials including powders, liquids and stains to determine the chemical identity or characteristics of the compounds that make up the sample. samples submitted as evidence in a drug-related case can contain one compound or a mixture of many compounds.

If each NADHNADH generates 3 ATPATP molecules and each FADH2FADH2 generates 2 ATPATP molecules, calculate the number of ATPATP m

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

$128~ATP$

Explanation:

The metabolic pathway by which energy can be obtained from a fatty acid is called "beta-oxidation". In this route, acetyl-Coa is produced by removing 2 carbons from the fatty acid for each acetyl-Coa produced. In other words, for each round, 1 acetyl Coa is produced and for each round 2 carbons are removed from the initial fatty acid. Therefore, the first step is to calculate the number of rounds that will take place for an 18-carbon fatty acid using the following equation:

$Number~of~Rounds=\frac{n}{2}-1$

Where "n" is the number of carbons, in this case "18", so:

$Number~of~Rounds=\frac{18}{2}-1~=~8$

We also have to calculate the amount of Acetyl-Coa produced:

$Number~of~Acetyl-Coa=\frac{18}{2}~=~9$

Now, we have to keep in mind that in each round in the beta-oxidation we will have the production of 1 $FADH_2$ and 1 $NADH$ . So, if we have 8 rounds we will have 8 $FADH_2$ and 8 $NADH$ .

Finally, for the total calculation of ATP. We have to remember the yield for each compound:

-) $1~FADH_2~=~2~ATP$

-) $1~NADH~=~3~ATP$

-) $Acetyl~CoA~=~10~ATP$

Now we can do the total calculation:

$(8*2)~+~(8*3)~+~(9*10)=130~ATP$

We have to subtract "2 ATP" molecules that correspond to the activation of the fatty acid, so:

$130-2=128~ATP$

In total, we will have 128 ATP.

I hope it helps!

What would you do to change a saturated solid/liquid solution to an unsaturated solution

Semenov [28]

Explanation:

Saturated solid/liquid solution is changed to an unsaturated solution by the dilution process.

When the saturated solution is diluted by addition large quantity of solvent it changed to an unsaturated solution.

Saturated solid/liquid solution can also be changed to an unsaturated solution by increasing the temperature or heating the solution.

A saturated solution is a solution where further solute will not dissolve in the solvent.

An unsaturated solution is a solution in which has the ability to dissolve more solute.

What is the pH of a solution which is 0.600 M in dimethylamine ((CH3)2NH) and 0.400 M in dimethylamine hydrochloride ((CH3)2NH2C

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

pH = 11.05

Explanation:

It is possible to answer this question using Henderson-Hasselbalch formula:

pH = pka + log₁₀ [A] / [HA⁺]

Where A in this case is weak base (dimethylamine) and conjugate acid (HA⁺) is dimethylamine hydrochloride.

As Ka= Kw / Kb = 1x10⁻¹⁴ / 7.4x10⁻⁴ = 1.35x10⁻¹¹ And pKa is -log Ka = 10.87 pH of the solution is:

pH = 10.87 + log₁₀ [0.600] / [0.400]

pH = 11.05

I hope it helps!
