The rate of effusion of nitrogen gas (N2) is 1.253 times faster than that of an unknown gas. What is the molecular weight of the
ollegr [7]

Answer:

43.96

Explanation:

Graham's law was applied and the rates of effusion of nitrogen and the unknown gas were compared as shown in the image. The unknown gas is heavier than hydrigen hence it effuses slower than hydrogen as anticipated by Graham's law.

What fraction of the carbon dioxide exhaled by animals is generated by the reactions of the citric acid cycle
puteri [66]

Answer:

1/3

Explanation:

Pyruvate is produced by the glycolysis in cytoplasm. The oxidation of pyruvate takes place in mitochondrial matrix.  

Pyruvate is converted to acetyl-CoA in the reaction given below:

Pyruvate + NAD⁺ + CoA-SH ⇒ acetyl-CoA + NADH + CO₂

1 molecule of carbon dioxide is eliminated from 1 molecule of pyruvate.

Also,  

2 molecules of carbon dioxide is eliminated from 2 molecules of pyruvate (as glucose on glycolysis yields 2 molecules of pyruvate).

Also, acetyl-CoA further goes into the citric acid cycle and produces 2 molecules of carbon dioxide.

Thus pyruvate produces total 3 molecules of CO₂  and hence glucose produces 6 molecules of CO₂ (as glucose on glycolysis yields 2 molecules of pyruvate)

Thus,

<u>Fraction = 2/6 = 1/3</u>
