Answer:

In the third step of the citric acid cycle, the oxidation of isocitrate takes place and one molecule of carbon dioxide is released.

Explanation:

In the first step of citric acid cycle, acetylCoA combines with a four-carbon molecule, oxaloacetate, forming a six-carbon molecule, citrate.

In the second step, the citrate in the presence of enzyme anicotase is converted into isocitrate.

<u>In the third step, the oxidation of isocitrate takes place and one molecule of carbon dioxide is released leaving behind one five-carbon molecule called as α-ketoglutarate. During this step, NAD⁺ is reduced to form NADH. </u>

<u>This is first round of the citric acid cycle that could possibly release a carbon atom originating from this acetyl CoA.</u>

On series of reaction, another carbon dioxide molecule also being relased and oxaloacetate is regenerated again.

A gas is collected in a 34.3L container at a temperature of 31.5°C. Later, the container has a volume of 29.2L, a temperature of
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

108 kPa  

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we can use the <em>Combined Gas Laws</em>:

p₁V₁/T₁ = p₂V₂/T₂             Multiply each side by T₁

   p₁V₁ = p₂V₂ × T₁/T₂      Divide each side by V₁

      p₁ = p₂ × V₂/V₁ × T₁/T₂

Data:

p₁ = ?;                 V₁ = 34.3 L; T₁ = 31.5 °C

p₂ = 122.2 kPa; V₂ = 29.2 L; T₂ = 21.0 °C

Calculations:

(a) Convert temperatures to <em>kelvins </em>

T₁ = (31.5 + 273.15) K = 304.65 K

T₂ = (21.0 + 273.15) K = 294.15 K

(b) Calculate the <em>pressure </em>

p₁ = 122.2 kPa × (29.2/34.3) × (304.65/294.15)  

   = 122.2 kPa × 0.8542 × 1.0357

   = 108 kPa

Cuando el oxígeno reacciona con el calcio produce un sólido blanco muy utilizado en la preparación de cementos. ¿Cuál de las sig
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

2Ca + O₂ → 2CaO

Explanation:

Cuando el Calcio (Ca) reacciona con oxígeno (O₂) se produce cal (CaO). La cal es un sólido inodoro de color blanco a grisáceo. La cal es un óxido que se encuentra presente en el cemento y su cuantificación permite determinar la calidad y el tipo de cemento a utilizar.

La reacción que describe el proceso anterior es:

Ca + O₂ → CaO

Para balancear los oxígenos, se deben poner 2 CaO como producto:

Ca + O₂ → 2CaO

Para balancear los calcios, se pone como coeficiente del Ca un 2:

<h3>2Ca + O₂ → 2CaO</h3><h3 />

Esta última es la reacción que describe el proceso anterior
