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:
Pu-239
Explanation:
Beta decay moves the element which undergoes the decay one place to the right in the periodic table since to conserve charge and being beta radiations an electron we convert a neutron into a proton and an electron. In neutron capture we increase the atomic mas by one unit. We that in mind, lets solve the question:
U-238 + ₁⁰ n ⇒ U-239 ⇒ Np -239 + ₋₁⁰β ⇒ Pu-239 + ₋₁⁰β
Answer:
18.33 ×10²³ atoms
Explanation:
Given data:
Molar mass of sulfuric acid = 98.1 g/mol
Mass of sulfuric acid = 75.0 g
Number of of oxygen atom present = ?
Solution:
Number of moles of sulfuric acid:
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 75.0 g/ 98.1 g/mol
Number of moles =0.761 mol
one mole of sulfuric acid contain four mole of oxygen atom.
0.761 mol × 4 = 3.044 mol
1 mole = 6.022×10²³ atoms of oxygen
3.044 mol × 6.022×10²³ atoms of oxygen / 1mol
18.33 ×10²³ atoms
The answer is sodium (Na)
