Balanced chemical equation:
* moles of oxygen
4 Al + 3 O2 = 2 Al2O3
4 moles Al -------------- 3 moles O2
9.30 moles Al ---------- moles O2
moles O2 = 9.30 * 3 / 4
moles O2 = 27.9 / 4 => 6.975 moles of O2
Therefore:
Molar mass O2 = 31.9988 g/mol
n = m / mm
6.975 = m / 31.9988
m = 6.975 * 31.9988
m = 223.19 of O2
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.
There are 12 carbon atoms, 22 hydrogen atoms, and 11 oxygen atoms in one molecule of C12H22O11.
In five molecules there are 60 carbon atoms, 110 hydrogen atoms, and 55 oxygen atoms.
Matter is a slightly archaic word for something with mass, as in the conservation of matter (which must be paired with the conservation of energy to still hold true. Mass can be converted back and forth between energy, so therefore so can matter. Of course relativistic mass is conserved as it's a function of the energy of an object in that reference frame.
