Answer:

Respiration might occur in the presence and absence of oxygen known as the aerobic respiration and anaerobic respiration. The ATP molecules are produced more in number in aerobic respiration.

The yeast has the ability to undergo the process of anaerobic respiration and its end product are alcohol, carbon dioxide and 2 moles of ATP. The yeast is grown on maltose medium but unable to produce alcohol because of the presence of oxygen in the medium. The oxygen might acts as poison or inhibit the process of anaerobic respiration.

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

According to Bronsted-Lowry, an acid is a proton donor while a base is a proton acceptor.

Hence, if we consider the reaction above, we will notice that for each base there is a conjugate acid and for each acid there is a conjugate base.

For the acid HNO3, its conjugate base is NO3^- while for the acid H3O^+, its conjugate base is H2O.

Are you friend with Nitrogen and Oxygen
Oduvanchick [21]

Nitrogen and oxygen do not react at ambient temperature. At high temperatures they have endothermic reactions and produces various oxides of nitrogen.

Explanation:

The difference between nitrogen and oxygen is the nitrogen has seven protons and seven electrons surrounding the nucleus. Whereas the oxygen has eight protons and electrons.

The atoms combines with one another to form molecules. The nitrogen is a inert, colorless gas with no smell or taste, its harmless to human beings.

The oxygen and nitrogen are abundant gases in the atmosphere and have similar physical properties. The oxygen (O2) is twice as soluble in water as nitrogen (N2).
