Answer:

D) 0, 2+ and 4+

Explanation:

Lead storage battery consists of metallic lead and lead(IV)oxide in a bath of sulphuric acid.

The negative plate (Cathode) consists of metallic lead in the battery while the positive plate (Anode) consists of Lead(IV)Oxide (PbO2). The liquid in which these plates are suspended in is an aqueous medium of Sulphuric acid (H2SO4).

Negative plate reaction: Pb(s) + HSO4–(aq) → PbSO4(s) + H+(aq) + 2e–

Positive plate reaction: PbO2(s) + HSO4–(aq) + 3H+(aq) + 2e– → PbSO4(s) + 2H2O(l)

Combining these two reactions, one can determine the overall reaction:

Pb(s) + PbO2(s) + 2H+(aq) + 2HSO4–(aq) → 2PbSO4(s) + 2H2O(l)

Pb is in 0 valent state. PbO2 has Pb with 4+ valency. PbSO4 has Pb with 2+ valency.

Carbons from acetyl CoA are transferred to the citric acid cycle. Which is the first round of the citric acid cycle that could p
Zielflug [23.3K]

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.

Can spectrum colors be mixed
larisa86 [58]
Additive color mixing involves multiple sources of light with different colors in each source. Subtractive color mixing involves a single source of light with different colors absorbing various wavelengths of the color spectrum. Secondary colors of one system serve as the primary colors for the other.

Suspensions

Explanation:

Suspensions are heterogeneous mixtures that contains large particles that can settle out or be filtered.

  • Suspensions are mixtures of small insoluble particles of a solid in a liquid or gas.
  • Examples are:
  1.  powdered chalk in water
  2. muddy water
  3. harmattan

The particles in suspension can settle on standing
