<h2>Answer: </h2>

<u>Low ionization energies are most characteristic of atoms that are </u><u>Metals </u>

<h2>Explanation: </h2>

Metals tend to lose electrons in chemical reactions, as indicated by their low ionization energies. Ionization energy is the quantity of energy that an isolated, gaseous atom in the ground electronic state must absorb to discharge an electron, resulting in a cation. In metals the valence electrons are farther away from the positively charge nucleus, so the force of attraction is low therefore metals have low ionization energy.

The reaction converting glycerol to glycerol-3-phosphate can be represented as: glycerol + hpo42− ⟶ glycerol-3-phosphate + h2o.

Volgvan

Answer;

Yes; this reaction be spontaneous if coupled with the hydrolysis of ATP.

Explanation;

The reaction converting glycerol to glycerol-3-phosphate (energetically unfavorable) can be coupled with the conversion of ATP to ADP (energetically favorable):

Glycerol + HPO42 ⟶glycerol-3-phosphate+H2O

ATP + H2O⟶ ADP + HPO42− + H+

1. The reaction below describes cellular respiration. Which compounds are the reactants and which are the

swat32

Answer:

C₆H₁₂O₆ and O₂ are reactant.

CO₂ and H₂O are products.

C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ → 6CO₂ + 6H₂O + ATP

Explanation:

There are two types of respiration:

1. Aerobic respiration

2. Anaerobic respiration

Aerobic respiration

It is the breakdown of glucose molecule in the presence of oxygen to yield large amount of energy. Water and carbon dioxide are also produced as a byproduct.

Glucose + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water + 38ATP

Anaerobic Respiration

It is the breakdown of glucose molecule in the absence of oxygen and produce small amount of energy. Alcohol or lactic acid and carbon dioxide are also produced as byproducts.

Glucose→ lactic acid/alcohol + 2ATP + carbon dioxide

This process use respiratory electron transport chain as electron acceptor instead of oxygen. It is mostly occur in prokaryotes. Its main advantage is that it produce energy (ATP) very quickly as compared to aerobic respiration.

Steps involve in anaerobic respiration are:

Glycolysis

Glycolysis is the first step of both aerobic and anaerobic respiration. It involve the breakdown of one glucose molecule into pyruvate and 2ATP.

Fermentation

The second step of anaerobic respiration is fermentation. It involve the fermentation of pyruvate into lactic acid or alcohol depending upon the organism in which it is taking place. There is no ATP produced, however carbon dioxide is released in this step.

Conservation of mass was discussed in the background. describe how conservation of mass (actual, not theoretical) could be check

rosijanka [135]

Conservation of mass can be checked in an experiment . There are three steps to do it in a best way:

1. Weigh all the equipment and materials required in the experiment before the experiment.

2. Avoid spillage and evaporation during the experiment.

3. Weigh all the equipment and materials after the experiment.

If the mass is conserved then weight from step 1 is equal to weight from step 3.
