Answer:
a.all four carbon atoms.
Explanation:
Acetyl-CoA labeled with 14C in both of its acetate carbon atoms is incubated with unlabeled oxaloacetate and a crude tissue preparation capable of carrying out the reactions of the citric acid cycle. After one turn of the TCA cycle, oxaloacetate would have 14C in all four carbon atoms.
we are given the the two reactants: AgNO3 and Na2CO3 and is asked to write a balanced equation and a net ionic equation for the reaction of the two. This is a double-replacement reaction:
2AgNO3 (aq)+ Na2CO3 (aq)= Ag2CO3 + 2NaNo3 (aq)
2 Ag + + 2 N03- + 2Na+ + CO32- = Ag2CO3 + 2 Na+ 2NO3-
cancelling the spectator ions, 2Ag + + CO32- = Ag2CO3
Answer:
The weights of all elements are always compared to the Carbon-12.
Explanation:
The weights of all elements are always compared to the Carbon-12 because the mass of carbon is 12 which is the exactly the sum of protons and neutrons.
Oxygen was also considered the standard for some time but later this stander was rejected because in natural O¹⁷ and O¹⁸ were also present and this create the two different atomic mass tables.
AMU:
Atomic mass unit is define as the 1/12 the mass of an atom of carbon-12.
C12 has six neutron and six protons in the nucleus.
This unit is used to express the masses of atoms. We know that masses of atoms are very small and we do not have any such type of balance that can measure very small quantity. So that is way we use this scale to measure small quantity. For example, according to this scale
relative atomic mass of hydrogen is 1.008 amu
relative atomic mass of oxygen is 15.999 amu
relative atomic mass of uranium is 238.0289 amu
relative atomic mass of chlorine is 35.453 amu
