Answer:
In the third step of the citric acid cycle, the oxidation of isocitrate takes place and one molecule of carbon dioxide is released.
Explanation:
In the first step of citric acid cycle, acetylCoA combines with a four-carbon molecule, oxaloacetate, forming a six-carbon molecule, citrate.
In the second step, the citrate in the presence of enzyme anicotase is converted into isocitrate.
<u>In the third step, the oxidation of isocitrate takes place and one molecule of carbon dioxide is released leaving behind one five-carbon molecule called as α-ketoglutarate. During this step, NAD⁺ is reduced to form NADH. </u>
<u>This is first round of the citric acid cycle that could possibly release a carbon atom originating from this acetyl CoA.</u>
On series of reaction, another carbon dioxide molecule also being relased and oxaloacetate is regenerated again.
Answer:
There are two sets of groups in the periodic table. The first set are Group A elements and are also known as representative elements. The second set are Group B elements and are also known as transition metals. Representative elements are the most abundant elements on earth.

Density can be defined in terms of the mass of a substance present in a certain volume.
i.e. Density = Mass/ volume
It helps classify and identify matter due to the following reasons:
1) Density is an intensive property. For a given substance the density will remain the same irrespective of the amount in which it is present.
For example: The density of Aluminum (Al) = 2.7 g/cm3. This value is a constant at a certain temperature and pressure. Therefore, the density will remain the same for 1 kilogram or 1 mg of Al
2) Different elements/compounds have different values of densities which is characteristic of that substance
The pH of a neutral aqueous solution at 37°C is 6.8.
<h3>What is Kw? </h3>
Kw is defined as the dissociation, which is also known as self-ionization, constant of water. this is an equilibrium constant, and its expression is:
Kw = [OH⁻] . [H₃O⁺]
Neutral pH determines that the concentrations of OH⁻ and H₃O⁺ are equal.
<h3>Calculation</h3>
Let us suppose concentration of OH and H₃O⁺ is x, to calculate it:
Kw =[OH⁻] . [H₃O⁺] = x²
x² = 2.4 × 10⁻¹⁴ M²
x = 1.5919 × 10⁻⁷ M
Hence, the concentration of OH and H₃O⁺ (x) = [H₃O⁺] = [OH⁻] = 1.5919×10⁻⁷ M
pH = -log[H₃O⁺] = -log( 1.5919×10⁻⁷ M)
pH = 6.8
Thus, we find that the pH of a neutral aqueous solution at 37 °c (which is the normal human body temperature) is 6.8.
