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.

What is the change in temperature in a 128g sample of titanium if it absorbs 2808J of heat energy at a temperature of 2°C? The s
Katena32 [7]

Given:

128g sample of titanium

2808J of heat energy

specific heat of titanium is 0.523 J/ g °C.

Required:

Change in temperature

Solution:

This can be solved through the equation H = mCpT where H is the heat, m is the mass, Cp is the specific heat and T is the change in temperature.

Plugging in the values into the equation

H = mCpT

2808J = (128g) (0.523 J /g °C) T

T = 41.9 °C

Are there moles of stars in the universe?
Natalka [10]

Answer:

Yes, a mole is defined as 6x1023 of something, so a mole of stars is 6x1023 stars. If we compare this number to our estimate of the total number of stars, we find that there is about 1/10 of a mole of stars in the Universe.

Hope this helps!

Zinc reacts with excess hydrochloric acid to produce zinc chloride and hydrogen gas. What happens to the reaction rate if you in
agasfer [191]
The correct response I believe is D. The reaction rate increases because the probability of collisions increases as there are more Zn atoms to react.
