Answer: Water H2O

Explanation:

In cellular respiration process NAD+ is a most versatile electron acceptor and functions in several of the redox steps during break down of glucose.

Each NADH molecules formed during respiration represents stored energy that can be tapped to make ATP when the electrons complete their ''fall''down an energy gradient from NADH to oxygen.

Electrons removed from glucose are shuttle by NADH to the ''top'', higher-energy end of the electron transport chain. At the ''bottom'' lower energy end, O2 captures these electrons along with H+ forming water.

Therefore Hydrogen removed from NADH in the ETC is captured by O2 to form water

2H + 1/2O2 ------> H20

An individual is hospitalized and the initial blood work indicates high levels of HCO_{3} ^{-} in the blood and a pH of 7. 47. This would indicate the individual probably has compensated respiratory acidosis.

A chronic illness usually leads to compensated respiratory acidosis because the kidneys have time to adjust to the delayed onset. Even if the PCO_{2} is elevated in a compensated respiratory acidosis, the pH is within the usual range.

The kidneys counteract a respiratory acidosis by increasing the amount of HCO_{3} that tubular cells reabsorb from the tubular fluid, the amount of H^{+} that collecting duct cells secrete while also producing HCO_{3} , and the amount of NH_{3} buffer that is formed through ammoniagenesis.

Respiratory acidosis is frequently brought on by hypoventilation as a result of: breathing depression , paralysis of the respiratory muscles, diseases of the chest wall , abnormalities of the lung parenchyma and abdominal squeezing.

Bond length is the distance between the centers of two bonded atoms. On the potential energy curve, the bond length is the inter
mariarad [96]

Answer:

152 pm

Explanation:

According to the question, we can estimate the bond length from the given values of the atomic radii. This now is the upper limit of the bond length for the molecule.

Since we have that;

Atomic radius of H= 37.0 pm

Atomic radius of Br = 115.0 pm

Bond length = Atomic radius of H + Atomic radius of Br

Bond length = 37.0 pm + 115.0 pm

Bond length = 152 pm

What is the change in temperature when 75 grams of water releases -2657 J of energy? The specific heat of water is 4.18 J/g°C
Naily [24]
I think the answer for this is 4702.5 J/g*k Depending on if it is water as a solid liquid or gas. I used water as a liquid when I solved it. J=(75g)(4.18 J/g*k)(15K)
