A compound is analyzed and found to contain 22.10%Al, 25.40%P, and 52.50%O

Let the total mass of compound = 100g

The mass of Aluminum = 22.10 g

Moles of Al = mass / atomic mass = 22.10 /23= 0.96

The mass of P = 25.40 g

Moles of P = 25.40 / 31 = 0.819

The mass of oxygen  = 52.50 g

Moles of oxygen = 52.50 / 16= 3.28

The mole ratio of the two elements will be

Al = 0.96/0.819 = 1.17

P = 0.819/0.819 = 1

O = 3.28 / 0.819 = 4

The whole number ratio will be 1 : 1 : 4

So formula will be AlPO4

Calculate the number of ATPs generated by the complete metabolic oxidation of tripalmitin (tripalmitoylglycerol). Hydrolysis of
trapecia [35]

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

Look at the diagram. Which shows the correct arrangement of electrons in water?
mariarad [96]

Answer:

Option 4

Explanation:

In water molecule, oxygen has -2 charge on it while the hydrogen has +1 charge and one atom of oxygen combines with two hydrogen atoms. A hydrogen need only two electrons to complete its octet (one electron is its own the second electron is shared by oxygen) and a oxygen needs 8 electrons (It has six of its own and two are shared by two hydrogen atom).

Hence, option 4 is correct

HELP ASAP!!!! PLEASE AND THANK YOU!!!! Aluminum, which has a specific heat capacity of 0.902 J/g◦C and a mass of 20.9 g absorbs
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

81.54 °C

Explanation:

Use the equation

q = mcΔT

348 = 20.9(0.902)(100-t)

t = 81.54 °C

*note, you don't have to convert these to kelvin since the difference will be the same
