Answer:

Explanation:

412 ATP's will be generated from the complete metabolic oxidation of tripalmitin (tripalmitoylglycerol)

130 ATP from the oxidation of palmitate

22 ATP from the oxidation of glycerol

Altogether 130 + 22 = 412 ATP will be produced.

Here in case of tripalmitin (tripalmitoylglycerol), we have 51 carbons.

When 51 carbons can produce 412 ATPs

Then 1 carbon will produce how many ATPs = 412 ATPs/ 51 carbon= 8.1 ATPs.

This shows that ATP yield per carbon often oxidized will be 8.1 ATPs

Now we will see the ATP yield in the case of glucose.

Glucose is made up of 6 carbon and complete oxidation of glucose will produce 38 ATPs

When 6 carbons can yield 38 ATPs

Then 1 carbon can yield how many ATPs= 38 ATPs/ 6 carbons= 6.33 ATPs.

So, ATP yield per carbon in case of glucose will be 6.33 ATPs

What is refraction? * Bending of light<br> Reflection of light
sdas [7]
Refraction is the bending of light (it also happens with sound, water and other waves) as it passes from one transparent substance into another. This bending by refraction makes it possible for us to have lenses, magnifying glasses, prisms and rainbows. Even our eyes depend upon this bending of light. Hope this helps!

What is the net ionic equation for the reaction that occurs when aqueous copper(II) sulfate is added to excess 6-molar ammonia?a
Karolina [17]

Answer:

c. 2NH₃ + 2H₂O  + Cu²⁺ → Cu(OH)₂(s) + 2NH₄⁺

Explanation:

A net ionic equation is a chemical equation that list only the species that are involved in the reaction.

The reaction of ammonia with copper(II) sulfate CuSO₄ in water is:

2NH₃ + 2H₂O  + CuSO₄ → Cu(OH)₂(s) + 2NH₄⁺ + SO₄²⁻

In an ionic equation, salts are written as ions, that means CuSO₄ must be written as Cu²⁺ + SO₄²⁻. That is:

2NH₃ + 2H₂O  + Cu²⁺ +<u> SO₄²⁻</u> → Cu(OH)₂(s) + 2NH₄⁺ + <u>SO₄²⁻</u>

As in a net ionic equation you must list only the species involved in the reaction (The underlined species don't react), the net ionic equation is:

<em>c</em>. <em>2NH₃ + 2H₂O  + Cu²⁺ → Cu(OH)₂(s) + 2NH₄⁺</em>

<em></em>

I hope it helps!
