Answer:
bonded
Explanation:
Compounds are two elements bonded together.
A mixture is multiple substances blended together. The substances aren't bonded together and can easily be extracted from each other.
Answer:
It has been approximately 6 hours after death.
Explanation:
This is because between 2-6 hours after death, the body starts becoming stiff from top to bottom, then spreading to the limbs. Since there is only rigor in his upper body, that would mean that with normal temperature and body conditions, it would be 4 or 5 hours after death. But since he is obese and in cold temperature, there is slower progression of rigor, leading to the maximum time in the first rigor mortis phase, 6 hours.
Answer:
a) Keq = 4.5x10^-6
b) [oxaloacetate] = 9x10^-9 M
c) 23 oxaloacetate molecules
Explanation:
a) In the standard state we have to:
ΔGo = -R*T*ln(Keq) (eq.1)
ΔGo = 30.5 kJ/moles = 30500 J/moles
R = 8.314 J*K^-1*moles^-1
Clearing Keq:
Keq = e^(ΔGo/-R*T) = e^(30500/(-8.314*298)) = 4.5x10^-6
b) Keq = ([oxaloacetate]*[NADH])/([L-malate]*[NAD+])
4.5x10^-6 = ([oxaloacetate]/(0.20*10)
Clearing [oxaloacetate]:
[oxaloacetate] = 9x10^-9 M
c) the radius of the mitochondria is equal to:
r = 10^-5 dm
The volume of the mitochondria is:
V = (4/3)*pi*r^3 = (4/3)*pi*(10^-15)^3 = 4.18x10^-42 L
1 L of mitochondria contains 9x10^-9 M of oxaloacetate
Thus, 4.18x10^-42 L of mitochondria contains:
molecules of oxaloacetate = 4.18x10^-42 * 9x10^-9 * 6.023x10^23 = 2.27x10^-26 = 23 oxaloacetate molecules
