Answer:
The carbons of the acetyl group oxidize which generate CO2, and in turn H2O.
Explanation:
The pyruvic acid that is generated during glycolysis enters the mitochondria. Inside this organelle, the acid molecules undergo a process called oxidative decaborxylation in which an enzyme of several cofactors is involved, one of which is coenzyme A. Pyruvic acid is transformed into an acetyl molecule and these are been introduced to the begining of the Krebs Cycle where the acetyl-group (2C) from acetyl-CoA is transferred to oxaloacetate (4C) to produce citrate (6C). As the molecule cycles the two carbons of the acetyl oxidize and are released in the form of CO2. Then the energy of the Krebs cycle becomes sufficient to reduce three NAD +, which means that three NADH molecules are formed. Although a small portion of energy is used to generate ATP, most of it is used to reduce not only the NAD + but also the FAD which, if oxidized, passes to its reduced state, FADH2
Specific gravity is the ratio of density of substance and density of water
We know that density of water = 1 g /mL at standard conditions
now as given that the 0.8 Kg of the substance / object is able to displace 500mL of water , it means that
Mass of object = 800g
The volume occupied by 800g of object = 500 mL
Density = mass / volume
Density of object = 800 / 500= 1.6 g / mL
The specific gravity of object = density of object / density of water = 1.6 / 1 = 1.6 (no units)
Answer:
A physical change, such as a state change or dissolving, does not create a new substance, but a chemical change does. In a chemical reaction, the atoms and molecules that interact with each other are called reactants. In a chemical reaction, the atoms and molecules produced by the reaction are called products.
