When electrons move through a series of electron acceptor molecules in cellular respiration ________.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Verizon [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

oxygen is reduced to form water.

Explanation:

Cellular respiration

It is the set of reactions in which the ac. Pyruvic produced by glycolysis is split into CO2 and H2O and 36 ATP are produced. In eukaryotic cells breathing is performed in the mitochondria. It occurs in two stages:

- PIRUVATE OXIDATION

- AC CYCLE TRICARBOXYL

The "problem" with fermentation is that, by using organic molecules as terminal electron acceptors and having to dispose of the resulting product (lactic acid / ethanol) as waste, the potential energy of these compounds is lost.

The alternative solution is to use some non-organic molecule that can accept electrons and thus become a reduced molecule. Oxygen is perfect for this, because after receiving the electrons it combines with two protons, thus becoming the perfect liquid residue for the environment: H2O.

7) What is the hydrogen concentration of a solution with a pH of 2.1? *
lesya [120]

Answer:

Hydrogen concentration = 7.94×10^-3 M

Explanation:

from potenz Hydrogen ( pH ) definition

pH = -log[H+]

2.1 = -log[H+]

2.1/-log = -log[H+]/-log

10^-2.1 = [H+]

[H+] = 7.94×10^-3M

A chemist prepares a solution of silver(II) oxide by measuring out 0.0013 of silver(II) oxide into a 100 mL volumetric flask and
azamat

Answer:

1.3x10⁻⁸ mol/L

Explanation:

<em>0.0013μmol, Calculate concentration in mol/L</em>

<em />

To obtain concentration in mol/L we need to convert the μmoles to moles and mL to liters:

<em>Moles silver(II) oxide:</em>

0.0013μmol × (1mol / 1x10⁶μmol) = 1.3x10⁻⁹ moles

<em>Liters solution:</em>

100mL * (1L / 1000mL) = 0.1L

That means concentration in mol/L is:

1.3x10⁻⁹ moles / 0.1L =

<h3>1.3x10⁻⁸ mol/L</h3>

What causes valley air to move up surrounding mountains during the day?
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

so the third one

Explanation:

During the day, the sun heats up mountain air rapidly while the valley remains relatively cooler. Convection causes it to rise, causing a valley breeze. At night, the process is reversed. During the night the slopes get cooled and the dense air descends into the valley as the mountain wind.

This exercise uses the radioactive decay model.
Anna11 [10]
For radioactive decay, we can relate current amount, initial amount, decay constant and time using:
N = No x exp(-λt)

Half-life = ln(2)/λ
λ = ln(2) / 5730
N/No = 80% = 0.8
0.8 = exp( -ln(2)/5730 x t)
t = 1844 years
