1 answer:

5 0

If the prefix mega is added to the unit of the quantity being described, the magnitude of quantity increases by 10^{6} times i.e. 1 million times.

For Example- 1 MW = 1000000 watts

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.

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.

This is first round of the citric acid cycle that could possibly release a carbon atom originating from this acetyl CoA.

On series of reaction, another carbon dioxide molecule also being relased and oxaloacetate is regenerated again.

Answer:

1-1) NaHCO3 + CH3COOH --> NaCH3COO + H2O + CO2

1-2) 0.5 mole of CO2

2-1) 2C4H10 + 13O2 --> 8CO2 + 10H2O

2-2) 4 mol CO2

Explanation:

Question 1

NaHCO3 + CH3COOH --> NaCH3COO + H2O + CO2

To balance the equation, count the number of atoms on both sides of the equation

(1 Na, 1+3+1H, 1+1+1C, 3+2Oxygen) --> (1 Na, 1+1+1C, 3+2H, 2+1+2Oxygen)

Combining the pluses will give you the following

(1 Na, 5H, 3C, 5Oxygen) --> (1 Na, 3C, 5H, 5Oxygen)

Both sides are the same, therefore the chemical equation is balanced (originally).

From the equation, we can see that 1 mole of NaHCO3 produces 1 mole of CO2.

So that means 0.5 mole of NaHCO3 would produce 0.5 mole of CO2.

Question 2

C4H10 + O2 --> CO2 + H2O

Again, count the number of atoms on both sides of the equation

(4C, 10H, 2O) --> (1C, 2H, 3O) This time left does not equal right side

You now need to find factors that can make both sides equal.

C4H10 + O2 --> 4CO2 + H2O Now the C is balanced, let's recount 

(4C, 10H, 2Oxygen) --> (4C, 8+1Oxygen, 2H) H&O is still not balanced

C4H10 + O2 --> 4CO2 + 5H2O Now the H is balanced, let's recount

(4C, 10H, 2Oxygen) --> (4C, 8+5Oxygen, 10H) O is still not balanced

C4H10 + (13/2)O2 --> 4CO2 + 5H2O Now the O is balanced

(4C, 10H, 13Oxygen) --> (4C, 13Oxygen, 10H)

But because 13/2 is a fraction, we want to eliminate that by multiplying every reactant and product by 2 (the denominator).

2C4H10 + 13O2 --> 8CO2 + 10H2O Now it's completely balanced!

(8C, 20H, 28Oxygen) --> (8C, 28Oxygen, 20H) Yayy! It's balanced.

Now, 2 mol C4H10 produces 8 mol CO2.

So 1 mol C4H10 produces 4 mol CO2.

Write a balanced equation for the following reaction:

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

3AgCl + Na₃PO₄ —> 3NaCl + Ag₃PO₄

The coefficients are 3, 1, 3, 1

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were:

Silver chloride reacts with sodium phosphate to yield sodium chloride and silver phosphate. This can be written as follow:

AgCl + Na₃PO₄ —> NaCl + Ag₃PO₄

The above equation can be balanced as follow:

AgCl + Na₃PO₄ —> NaCl + Ag₃PO₄

There are 3 atoms of Na on the left side and 1 atom on the right side. It can be balance by putting 3 in front of NaCl as shown below:

AgCl + Na₃PO₄ —> 3NaCl + Ag₃PO₄

There are 3 atoms of Cl on the right side and 1 atom on the left. It can be balance by putting 3 in front of AgCl as shown below:

3AgCl + Na₃PO₄ —> 3NaCl + Ag₃PO₄

Thus, the equation is balanced.

The coefficients are 3, 1, 3, 1

I don’t understand how to solve this and I don’t get ionic equation

Elden [556K]

Explanation:

Spectator ions refers to elements/molecules that do not form part of the reaction. Basically, these elements/molecules are in the same state in the reactant and product side. From the given reaction, Ca and SO4 change their state from aqueous to solid and Na and Cl do not change their state. Therefore, Na and Cl are spectator ions and Ca and SO4 are not spectator ions.

Answer:

The correct option is C.
