The half-reactions involved in the lactate dehydrogenase (ldh) reaction and their standard reduction potentials are

5 0

Enzyme lactate dehydrogenase catalyses the conversion of lactate to pyruvate. In this reaction lactate loses two electrons (becomes oxidized) and is converted to pyruvate. NAD+ gains two electrons (is reduced) and is converted to NADH. The half reactions involved are;

NAD+ + H+ + 2e- = NADH -0.320
Pyruvate + 2H+ + 2e- = Lactate -0.185
Giving an overall reaction of;
Lactate + NAD+ = Pyruvate + NADH + H+

Answer:

We can have: Calcium, strontium, or barium

Explanation:

In this case, we have to remember the solubility rules for sulfate $SO_4~^-^2$ and the chloride $Cl^-$ :

Sulfate

All sulfate salts are SOLUBLE-EXCEPT those also containing: Calcium, silver, mercury (I), strontium, barium or lead.( $Ca^+^2~,Ag^+~,Hg_2^+^2~,Sr^+2~,Ba^+^2~,Pb^+^2$ ), which are NOT soluble.

Chloride

All chloride salts as SOLUBLE-EXCEPT those also containing: lead, silver, or mercury (I). ( $Pb^+^2~,Ag^+~,Hg_2~^+^2$ ), which are NOT soluble.

If we the salt formed a precipitated with the sulfate anion, we will have as possibilities "Calcium, silver, mercury (I), strontium, barium or lead". If We dont have any precipitated with the Chloride anion we can discard "Silver, mercury (I), lead" and our possibilities are:

"Calcium, strontium, or barium".

I hope it helps!

what conclusions can be made about the relationship between metallic character and the atomic radius?

kolezko [41]

We have to get the relationship between metallic character and atomic radius.

Metallic character increases with increase in atomic radius and decrease with decrease of atomic radius.

If electrons from outermost shell of an element can be removed easily, that atom can be considered to have more metallic character.

With increase in atomic radius, nuclear force of attraction towards outermost shell electron decreases which facilitates the release of electron.

With decrease in atomic radius, nuclear force of attraction towards outermost shell electrons increases, so electrons are hold tightly to nucleus. Hence, removal of electron from outermost shell becomes difficult making the atom less metallic in nature.
