Thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP) is a coenzyme derived from vitamin B1 that is used by the enzyme pyruvate dehydrogenase to convert

pyruvate to acetyl‑CoA. TPP has a relatively acidic proton that can produce a carbanion that can act as an electron sink and aid in the decarboxylation of α‑keto acids. The first step of the pyruvate dehydrogenase mechanism is the reaction of pyruvate with TPP, followed by decarboxylation. This gives an intermediate that can donate a two‑carbon unit to the lipoamide prosthetic group to form acetyl lipoamide. Identify the second intermediate by selecting the correct structure.

Based on the Lewis/electron dot representation

Answer:

A. 1:3

Explanation:

If we look at the ions shown in the image attached to the question, we will notice that we have aluminum (Al^3+), a trivalent ion combining with the iodide ion (I^-).

Aluminum can easily give out its three outermost electrons to three atoms of iodine. If aluminum gives out its three electrons, it achieves the stable octet structure. Iodine atoms have seven electrons in their outermost shell. They only need one more electrons to complete their octet. This one electron can be gotten by the combination of three iodine atoms with one atom of aluminum. One electron each is transferred from the aluminum atom to each iodine atom to form AlI3 with a ratio of 1:3.

The [H+] of a solution can be determined from the pH using the equation: [H+] = 10 - pH ... Where: [H+] = hydrogen ion concentra
padilas [110]

Answer:

pH = -log₁₀ [H⁺]

Explanation:

pH is a value in chemistry used in to measure solution trying to determine each quality, purity, risks for health of some products, etc.

As you write in the question, [H⁺] = 10^(-pH)

Using logarithm law (log (m^(p) = p log(m):

log₁₀ [H⁺] = -pH

And

<h3>pH = -log₁₀ [H⁺]</h3>
