The distance from the star to the Earth

Explanation:

The absolute brightness of a star is a measure of the intrinsec luminosity of the star, i.e. it does not depend on the distance of the star from the Earth.

In other word, the absolute brightness is a measure of the luminosity of a star if all stars were placed at the same distance from Earth.

On the other hand, the relative brightness of a star is a measure of its luminosity as observed on Earth, therefore it does depend on the distance of the star from the Earth: the farther the star is, the more its luminosity will decrease, and vice-versa.

The star's absolute brightness, therefore, depends only on the characteristics of the star itself, namely:

- The absolute magnitude of the star

- The rate at which the star produces energy via nuclear fusion

- The rate at which the star releases energy via electromagnetic radiation

Therefore, the only factor that does NOT change if the absolute brightness of a star changes is

- The distance from the star to the Earth

If each NADHNADH generates 3 ATPATP molecules and each FADH2FADH2 generates 2 ATPATP molecules, calculate the number of ATPATP m

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

$128~ATP$

Explanation:

The metabolic pathway by which energy can be obtained from a fatty acid is called "beta-oxidation". In this route, acetyl-Coa is produced by removing 2 carbons from the fatty acid for each acetyl-Coa produced. In other words, for each round, 1 acetyl Coa is produced and for each round 2 carbons are removed from the initial fatty acid. Therefore, the first step is to calculate the number of rounds that will take place for an 18-carbon fatty acid using the following equation:

$Number~of~Rounds=\frac{n}{2}-1$

Where "n" is the number of carbons, in this case "18", so:

$Number~of~Rounds=\frac{18}{2}-1~=~8$

We also have to calculate the amount of Acetyl-Coa produced:

$Number~of~Acetyl-Coa=\frac{18}{2}~=~9$

Now, we have to keep in mind that in each round in the beta-oxidation we will have the production of 1 $FADH_2$ and 1 $NADH$ . So, if we have 8 rounds we will have 8 $FADH_2$ and 8 $NADH$ .

Finally, for the total calculation of ATP. We have to remember the yield for each compound:

-) $1~FADH_2~=~2~ATP$

-) $1~NADH~=~3~ATP$

-) $Acetyl~CoA~=~10~ATP$

Now we can do the total calculation:

$(8*2)~+~(8*3)~+~(9*10)=130~ATP$

We have to subtract "2 ATP" molecules that correspond to the activation of the fatty acid, so:

$130-2=128~ATP$

In total, we will have 128 ATP.

I hope it helps!

Cinnamon owes its flavor and odor to cinnamaldehyde (C9H8O). Determine the boiling point elevation of a solution of 92.7 mg of c

Flauer [41]

Answer:

The boiling point elevation is 3.53 °C

Explanation:

∆Tb = Kb × m

∆Tb is the boiling point elevation of the solution

Kb is the molal boiling point elevation constant of CCl4 = 5.03 °C/m

m is the molality of the solution is given by moles of solute (C9H8O) divided by mass of solvent (CCl4) in kilogram

Moles of solute = mass/MW =

mass = 92.7 mg = 92.7/1000 = 0.0927 g

MW = 132 g/mol

Moles of solute = 0.0927/132 = 7.02×10^-4 mol

Mass of solvent = 1 g = 1/1000 = 0.001 kg

m = 7.02×10^-4 mol ÷ 0.001 kg = 0.702 mol/kg

∆Tb = 5.03 × 0.702 = 3.53 °C (to 2 decimal places)
