Acyl-CoA + FAD ↔ trans-Δ2-enoyl-CoA + FADH2 (NOTE: the double tipped arrow means forward and reverse)

Chemistry
1 answer:
aleksley [76]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

c) FAD is the oxidizing agent

Explanation:

The β-oxidation is a catabolic process where fatty acids are degraded into a final product: Acetil-CoA. In order this process occurres, the fatty acid chain is being removed from a pair of carbon atoms on each cycle

Before the β-oxidation takes place, the fatty acid molecule should be activated, so it can go through the mitochondrial membrane into (via a carnitine translocator)

Once the activated molecule is inside the mitochondrial matrix, it can go through the β-oxidation: the first step is the oxidation of the fatty acid, with the enzyme Acyl-CoA-dehydrogenase (this enzyme catalyzes the creation of a double bond between carbon-2 and carbon-3.

This enzyme has attached a coenzyme: FAD, which takes the electrons (from the fatty acid oxidation) and becomes a reduced component: FADH2:

Acyl-CoA + FAD ↔ trans-Δ2-enoyl-CoA + FADH2

What is the mass (in grams) of 9.79 × 1024 molecules of methanol (CH3OH)?
nevsk [136]
We will use this formlula: Mass in grams = Number of moles x Molecular mass of 1 mole.

Since, we know the avagadro number is 6.02 x 10²³, we only have two unknown values left which are the molecular mass of CH3OH and its mole.

Molecular Mass: C = 12, H= 1, O = 16, since we have C=12, H4 = 4, O = 16, we will add them up: 12 + 4 + 16 =32

We know that one mole of anything = 6.02 x 10²³.
So we will use this formula to find the mole of methanol: Number of moles = Number of molecules / Avagadro number

Number of moles of CH3OH = (9.79 x 10^24)/6.02 x 10²³) =  16.263 moles.

Now we know that the molecular mass = 32 and the mole is = 16.263.

Now we can find its mass by using this formula: <span>Mass in grams = Number of moles x Molecular mass of 1 mole.
</span>
Mass in grams = 16.263 x 32 = 520g

How many mL of a 1.48 M calcium hydroxide solution are needed to neutralize 36.0 mL of a 1.63 M hydrochloric acid solution
Lelechka [254]

The volume (in mL) of calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH)₂ needed for the reaction is 19.8 mL

<h3>Balanced equation </h3>

2HCl + Ca(OH)₂ —> CaCl₂ + 2H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

  • The mole ratio of the acid, HCl (nA) = 2
  • The mole ratio of the base, Ca(OH)₂ (nB) = 1

<h3>How to determine the volume of Ca(OH)₂ </h3>
  • Molarity of base, Ca(OH)₂ (Mb) = 1.48 M
  • Volume of acid, HCl (Va) = 36 mL
  • Molarity of acid, HCl (Ma) = 1.63 M
  • Volume of base, Ca(OH)₂ (Vb) =?

MaVa / MbVb = nA / nB

(1.63 × 36) / (1.48 × Vb) = 2

58.68 / (1.48 × Vb) = 2

Cross multiply

2 × 1.48 × Vb = 58.68

2.96 × Vb = 58.68

Divide both side by 2.96

Vb = 58.68 / 2.96

Vb = 19.8 mL
