17. Overall the drop in reduction potential from NADH to water is equivalent to the energy needed to synthesize six or seven mol

ecules of ATP, yet only about 2.5 molecules of ATP are actually synthesized? How does this apparent thermodynamic inefficiency allow ATP synthesis to be achieved? What would happen if the system were 100% efficient?

Answer:

The ATP synthesis is achieved by the generation of proton motive force(PMF).

Explanation:

The proton motive force is generated by the transport of electrons from intermembrane space to matrix of mitocondria. The proton motive force is utilized by FO F1  ATPase to generate ATP from the phosphorylation of ADP and inorganic phosphate(Pi).

       If the system were 100% efficient then 64 molecules of of ATP can be generated from the complete oxidation of 1 molecule of glucose by aerobic respiration.

You have two compounds that you have spotted on the TLC plate. One compound is more polar than the other. You ran the TLC plate
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

we will except an increase in the polarity of the system and this will cause the Non-polar spot to be near the solvent front, while the polar spot will run at an approximate speed of 0.5 Rf

Explanation:

when we run a TLC plate in a 50/50 mixture of hexanes and ethyl acetate we will except an increase in the polarity of the system and this will cause the Non-polar spot to be near the solvent front, while the polar spot will run at an approximate speed of 0.5 Rf

The speed of the polar spot depends largely on the level of polarity, an increase in the polarity will see both spots of Neat hexane run when we run a TLC  plate in a 50/50 mixture of hexanes and ethyl acetate

How many moles of Cl2 will produce 0.35 miles of NaCl when reacted with excess Na?
weeeeeb [17]
This question is based in mole ratios. for every mole of cl2, 2 moles of NaCl will be produced. so half of the moles of NaCl gives the moles of Cl2 required. therefore divide 0.35 by 2

ammonia (NH3(g) Hf=-45.9 kJ/mol) reacts. with oxygen to produce nitrogen and water (H2O(g) Hf = -241.8 kJ/mol according to the e
kherson [118]

Answer:

ΔH°_rxn = -195.9 kJ·mol⁻¹

Explanation:

                              4NH₃(g) + 3O₂(g) ⟶ 2N₂(g) +6H₂O(g)

ΔH°_f/(kJ·mol⁻¹):    -45.9          0                 0        -241.8

The formula relating ΔH°_rxn and enthalpies of formation (ΔH°_f) is

ΔH°_rxn = ΣΔH°_f(products) – ΣΔH°_f(reactants)

ΣΔH°_f(products) = -6(241.8) = -1450.8 kJ

ΣΔH°_f(reactants) = -4(45.9) = -183.6 kJ

ΔH°_rxn =  (-1450.8 + 183.6) kJ = -1267.2 kJ
