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.

8. The standard enthalpy of formation of RbF(s) is –557.7kJ/mol and the standard enthalpy of formation of RbF(aq, 1 m) is –583.8
garri49 [273]

Explanation:

Given

The enthalpy of formation of RbF (s) is –557.7kJ/mol

The standard enthalpy of formation of RbF (aq, 1 m) is –583.8 kJ/mol

The enthalpy of solution of RbF = Enthalpy of RbF (aq) - Enthalpy of formation of RbF (s)

= -583.8 - (-557.7)  kJ/mol

= -26.1 kJ/mol

The enthalpy is negative which means that the temperature will rise when RbF is dissolved.

What is the highest point of the wave a transverse wave called
topjm [15]
<span>The answer to the question "what is the highest point of the transverse wave called" is a crest or peak. A transverse wave is a wave in which the medium of the wave vibrates at 90 degrees to the direction in which the wave is moving at. The lowest points are called the troughs. Examples of transverse waves are light and electromagnetic radiation.</span>

It takes 495.0 kJ of energy to remove 1 mole of electron from an atom on the surface of sodium metal. How much energy does it ta
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

\lambda=241.9\ nm

Explanation:

The work function of the sodium= 495.0 kJ/mol

It means that  

1 mole of electrons can be removed by applying of 495.0 kJ of energy.

Also,  

1 mole = 6.023\times 10^{23}\ electrons

So,  

6.023\times 10^{23} electrons can be removed by applying of 495.0 kJ of energy.

1 electron can be removed by applying of \frac {495.0}{6.023\times 10^{23}}\ kJ of energy.

Energy required = 82.18\times 10^{-23}\ kJ

Also,  

1 kJ = 1000 J

So,  

Energy required = 82.18\times 10^{-20}\ J

Also, E=\frac {h\times c}{\lambda}

Where,  

h is Plank's constant having value 6.626\times 10^{-34}\ Js

c is the speed of light having value 3\times 10^8\ m/s

So,  

79.78\times 10^{-20}=\frac {6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{\lambda}

\lambda=\frac{6.626\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{82.18\times 10^{-20}}

\lambda=\frac{10^{-26}\times \:19.878}{10^{-20}\times \:82.18}

\lambda=\frac{19.878}{10^6\times \:82.18}

\lambda=2.4188\times 10^{-7}\ m

Also,  

1 m = 10⁻⁹ nm

So,  

\lambda=241.9\ nm
