Answer:
D) the carbon with the low-energy phosphate on it in 1,3 BPG is labeled.
Explanation:
Glycolysis has 2 phase (1) preparatory phase (2) pay-off phase.
<u>(1) Preparatory phase</u>
During preparatory phase glucose is converted into fructose-1,6-bisphosphate. Till this time the carbon numbering remains the same i.e. if we will label carbon at 6th position of glucose, its position will remian the same in fructose-1,6-bisphosphate that means the labeled carbon will still remain at 6th position.
When fructose-1,6-bisphosphate is further catalyzed with the help of enzyme aldolase it is cleaved into two 3 carbon intermediates which are glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (GAP) and dihyroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP). In this conversion, the first three carbons of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate become carbons of DHAP while the last three carbons of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate will become carbons of GAP. It simply means that GAP will acquire the last carbon of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate which is labeled. Now the last carbon of GAP which has phosphate will be labeled.
<u>(2) Pay-off phase</u>
During this phase, GAP is dehydrogenated into 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate (BPG) with the help of enzyme glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase. This oxidation is coupled to phosphorylation of C1 of GAP and this is the reason why 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate has phosphates at 2 positions i.e. at position 1 in which phosphate is newly added and position 3rd which already had labeled carbon.
It is pertinent to mention here that<u> BPG has a mixed anhydride and the bond at C1 is a very high energy bond.</u> In the next step, this high energy bond is hydrolyzed into a carboxylic acid with the help of enzyme phosphoglycerate kinase and the final product is 3-phosphoglycerate. Hence, the carbon with low energy phosphate i.e. the carbon at 3rd position remains labeled.
Answer: d. has high activation energy
Activation energy is the energy that a system requires to start a certain process. Also, it <u>is the minimum energy necessary for a given chemical reaction to occur</u>. For a reaction to occur between two molecules, they must collide in the correct orientation and have a minimum amount of energy equal to the activation energy.
As the molecules approach, their electron clouds repel, so energy is required for the collision to occur and therefore the reaction. The activation energy comes from the heat of the system, that is, the translational, vibrational energy, etc. of each molecule. However, if this energy is not enough, the reaction will not be spontaneous.
<u>A reaction between two molecules can be favored by supplying energy to the system.</u> In the case raised in the question, <u>energy equal to 1104 kJ is provided to the system to favor the next reaction
</u>
CO2 (g) + 2SO2 (g) → CS2 (g) + 3O2 (g)
<u>Since the energy equal to 1104 kJ is included in the reactants, it can be deduced that it is the energy that is provided to the system for the reaction to occur. </u>However, from the value of this energy it can not be said whether the system is endothermic or exothermic since it is a kinetic variable and the variables of this type do not allow predicting the thermodynamic behavior of a system.
Furthermore, it can be seen that the value of this energy is considerably high, therefore the reaction described has a high activation energy.
Answer:
Molar heat of solution of KBr is 20.0kJ/mol
Explanation:
Molar heat of solution is defined as the energy released (negative) or absorbed (Positive) per mole of solute being dissolved in solvent.
The dissolution of KBr is:
KBr → K⁺ + Br⁻
In the calorimeter, the temperature decreases 0.370K, that means the solution absorbes energy in this process. The energy is:
q = 1.36kJK⁻¹ × 0.370K
q = 0.5032kJ
Moles of KBr in 3.00g are:
3.00g × (1mol / 119g) = 0.0252moles
Thus, molar heat of solution of KBr is:
0.5032kJ / 0.0252moles = <em>20.0kJ/mol</em>
I'd say he ways about 35 kilograms, but I'm probably wrong, xD
Answer:
heroic
Explanation:
Bayer, a German pharmaceutical company, named the substance it synthesized "heroin", probably from the word heroisch, German for heroic, because in field studies people using the medicine felt "heroic".
BTW, I found this information on this wedsite: https://www.answers.com/Q/Where_did_heroin_get_its_name
