Chemistry
1 answer:
olga55 [171]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Present in both catabolic and anabolic pathways

Explanation:

Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate abbreviated as G3P occurs as intermediate in glycolysis and gluconeogenesis.

In photosynthesis, it is produced by the light independent reaction and acts as carrier for returning ADP, phosphate ions Pi, and NADP+  to the light independent pathway. Photosynthesis is a anbolic pathway.

In glycolysis, Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate is produced by breakdown of fructose-1,6 -bisphosphate. Further Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate converted to pyruvate and pyruvate is further used in citric acid cycle for energy production. Therefore, it is used in catabolic pathway too.

Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate is an important intermediate molecule in the cell's metabolic pathways because it is  present in both catabolic and anabolic pathways.

You are determining the density of an unknown solid. You figure out the volume by water displacement. Then you weigh the solid,
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

The calculated density will be larger

Explanation:

The calculated density will be <u>larger</u>. Because, the volume is taken accurately, by the water displacement method. But, when we the took the mass, the water was present on the unknown solid. So, the mass of that water was added to the original mass of the solid. Hence, the mass measured was larger than the original mass. We, know from the formula of density that density is directly proportional to the mass of the object.

Density = Mass/Volume

Hence, the larger measured mass means the larger value of density.

1. When two atoms with different electronegativities are bonded together, a bond dipole exists. These are displayed with an arro
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

In order: LOWER, HIGHER, NEGATIVE, POSITIVE, INCREASE

Explanation:

First you must consider the definition of electronegativity.

All in all, electronegativity is the ability of an atom to attract electrons to itself. For this explanation, let's just consider the groups 1, 2, 13-17, and the noble gases of the periodic table. Furthermore, let's also consider the octet rule. The octet rule says that the last orbit of an atom tends to have 8 electrons in order to be stable.

If you take an atom like Sodium (Na) and search its distribution of electrons by levels, you'll see these number in the last two orbits: 8.1

The penultimate orbit has 8 electrons and the last one has only 1. Therefore, in order to futfill the octet rule what do you think it's easier? Losing the last electron and leaving the 8 electrones of the penultimate orbit as last orbit? Or maybe taking 7 electrons for the last orbit and, hence, futfilling the octet? Well, the answer is the first case.

The more you move from group to group (i.e, rightwards in the periodic table), more electrons will have in their last orbit.

So, in order to respond your question: Yes you should display it like this:

A --> B

Consider A and B two random atoms, for which B's electronegativity is higher than A's. This arrow shows the tendency of the electron flow.

As electrons go to the more electronegative atom, the whole electronic ''cloud'' will tend to be closer to B, because this atom is more electronegative. Hence, there will be a partial (not fixed) negative charge on B rather than on A. This is due to B's high electronegativity. This means that the negative charge will spend more time on B rather than on A, this is what partial negative charge means.

The higher the electronegativity is, the higher the magnitudes of the partial charges --> Therefore, these partial charges are increased and sometimes it might lead to the chemical bond breakage.

The average atomic mass recorded on the periodic table for cobalt is 58.933 u. This indicates that the most abundant isotope of
OleMash [197]
The average atomic mass of the element is the sum of the products of the percentage abundance of isotope and its mass number. Therefore, for atomic mass equal to 58.933, the most abundant isotope is cobalt-59. Thus, the answer is letter C.
