Question:
Sulfuric acid was once produced through the reaction of sulfur trioxide with water. Sulfur trioxide can form through the reaction of sulfur dioxide and oxygen gas. When nitrogen monoxide gas is added to the system, the reaction speeds up significantly because it proceeds through the following steps:
equations
Identify the catalyst in this reaction, explain how you know it is the catalyst, and describe how it increases the rate of the reaction.
Answer:
NO
It is present but not consumed
NO Lowers the activation energy of the reaction
Explanation:
A catalyst is a substance that is present in a chemical reaction and enables the reaction to occur at a faster rte but does not take part n the reaction
Therefore, whereby NO is not consumed, it is the catalyst
It functions by lowering the activation energy
Answer:
Homogenous mixture
Explanation:
Homogenous mixtures like ice cream appear to be uniform, and you cannot see their individual components.
Answer:
Total number of ATP molecules generated from a 32-carbon fatty acid = 206 ATP molecules
Explanation:
A 32 carbon fatty acid which undergoes complete beta-oxidation assuming that the fatty acid is fully saturated will pass through the beta-oxidation cycle 14 times to produce the following:
15 molecules of acetylCoA, 14 molecules of FADH₂, and 14 molecules of NADH.
Each of the 15 acetylCoA molecules can be further oxidized in the citric acid cycle to yield the following: 15 × 3 NADH; 15 × 1 FADH₂, and 15 ATP molecules from the substrate level phosphorylation occuring at the succinylCoA synthetase catalyzed-reaction.
Total FADH₂ produced = 15 + 14 = 29 molecules of FADH₂
Total NADH produced = 45 + 14 = 59 molecules of NADH
The FADH₂ and NADH will each donate a pair of electrons to the electron transfer flavoprotein and mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase respectively of the electron transport chain, and about 1.5 and 2.5 molecules of ATP are generated respectively when these electrons are transfered to molecular oxygen.
Thus, number of molecules of ATP generated by 29 molecules of FADH₂ = 1.5 × 29 = 43.5 molecules of ATP.
Number of molecules of ATP generated by 59 molecules of NADH = 2.5 × 59 = 147.5
Sum of ATP generated from FADH₂ and NADH = 43.5 + 147.5 = 191 ATP molecules
Total number of ATP molecules generated = 191 + 15 = 206 ATP molecules
Total number of ATP molecules generated from a 32-carbon fatty acid = 206 ATP molecules
Answer:
0.120M is the concentration of the solution
Explanation:
<em>Assuming the mass of sodium nitrate dissolved was 2.552g</em>
<em />
Molar concentration is an unit of concentration widely used in chemsitry defined as the moles of solute (In this case NaNO3) in 1L of solution.
To find this question we must find the moles of NaNO3 in 2.552g. With this mass and the volume (250mL = 0.250L) we can find molar concentration as follows:
<em>Moles NaNO3 -Molar mass: 84.99g/mol-</em>
2.552g * (1mol / 84.99g) = 0.0300 moles NaNO3
<em>Molar concentration:</em>
0.0300 moles NaNO3 / 0.250L =
<h3>0.120M is the concentration of the solution</h3>
