Explanation:
a) 4P + 3O2 --> 2P2O3
b) The chemical reaction above limits the number of molecules of P2O3 produced for every 4 atoms of P.
Answer:
The two molecules of acetyl-CoA that are produced from a molecule of glucose goes through two turn in the citric acid cycle, one for each molecule of acetyl-CoA.
Explanation:
Glycolysis the process by which a molecule of glucose is broken down in a series of steps to yield two molecules of pyruvate. The overall equation for the reactions of glycolsis is given below:
Glucose + 2NAD+ ----> 2 Pyruvate + 2NADH + 2H⁺
Each of the two pyruvate molecules produced from glucose breakdown is further oxidized to two molecules of acetyl-CoA and CO₂ each.
2 Pyruvate ----> 2 AcetylCoA + 2CO₂
Each of the acetyl-CoA molecule then enters the citric acid cycle for its oxidation. In each turn of the cycle, one acetyl group enters as acetyl-CoA and two molecules of CO₂ leave.
If there were an element above fluorine, its state would be a gas. This is because fluorine is located in the non-metal section of the periodic table which can all be found as a gas at room temperature.
