Answer:

Electrons Can Donate - 0

Electrons Can Receive- 2

Valence  - 2

Explanation:

The electronic configuration of oxygen is 1s^2s^22p^4. Thus in the p-orbital there is deficiency of two electrons. Hence, it can receive/share electron but it cannot donate electrons. This makes oxygen as a good electron acceptor. Since there is a deficiency of two electrons in the outermost shell of oxygen, the valence of oxygen in thus -2

based on the number of ATP generated during the electron transport chain for every one glucose molecule, how many atp would be g
OleMash [197]

Answer:

If 10 glucose molecules are broken down, 320 ATP molecules will be generated during the electron transport chain.

Explanation:

In the electron transport chain, high energy electrons travel across a series of proteins embedded in the inner mitochondrial membrane, releasing energy in the process.Hydrogen is pumped from the matrix into the intermembrane space, therefore an hydrogen ion gradient is formed across the inner membrane.These proton are then pumped back into the mitochondrial membrane where the synthesis of ATP from ATP synthase takes place.

In the electron transport chain, a total of 32 ATPs are generated per glucose molecule.

so if 10 glucose molecules are broken down:

1 glucose ⇒ 32 ATPs

10 glucose ⇒ 10*32

                       320 ATP molecules
