Answer:
Explanation:
The metabolic pathway by which energy can be obtained from a fatty acid is called <u>"beta-oxidation"</u>. In this route, acetyl-Coa is produced by removing <u>2 carbons</u> from the fatty acid for each acetyl-Coa produced. In other words, for each round, 1 acetyl Coa is produced and for each round 2 carbons are removed from the initial fatty acid. Therefore, the first step is to calculate the <u>number of rounds</u> that will take place for an <u>18-carbon fatty</u> acid using the following equation:
Where "n" is the <u>number of carbons</u>, in this case "18", so:
We also have to calculate the amount of Acetyl-Coa produced:
Now, we have to keep in mind that in each round in the beta-oxidation we will have the <u>production of 1 
and 1 
</u>. So, if we have 8 rounds we will have 8 and 8 .
Finally, for the total calculation of ATP. We have to remember the <u>yield for each compound</u>:
-) 
-) 
-) 
Now we can do the total calculation:
We have to <u>subtract</u> "2 ATP" molecules that correspond to the <u>activation</u> of the fatty acid, so:
In total, we will have 128 ATP.

Hey there! Here is the answer:
B.) decrease; increase
Here's why:
As you move from left to right across a period on the periodic table the size of an atom will decrease. As you move from top to bottom down a group on the periodic table the size of an atom will increase.
I really hope this answer helps you out! :)
To solve this we assume
that the gas is an ideal gas. Then, we can use the ideal gas equation which is
expressed as PV = nRT. At a constant temperature and number of moles of the gas
the product of PV is equal to some constant. At another set of condition of
temperature, the constant is still the same. Calculations are as follows:
P1V1 =P2V2
P2 = P1V1/V2
P2 = 740mmhg x 19 mL / 30 mL
<span>P2 = 468.67 mmHg = 0.62 atm</span>
Answer:
0.4
Explanation:
Given data:
Number of moles of SrCl₂ consumed = ?
Mass of ZnCl₂ produced = 54 g
Solution:
Chemical equation:
ZnSO₄ + SrCl₂ → SrSO₄ + ZnCl₂
Number of moles of ZnCl₂:
Number of moles = mass/ molar mass
Number of moles = 54 g/136.3 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.4 mol
Now we will compare the moles of ZnCl₂ with SrCl₂ from balance chemical equation.
ZnCl₂ : SrCl₂
1 : 1
0.4 : 0.4
Thus when 54 g of ZnCl₂ produced 0.4 moles of SrCl₂ react.
