The aromatic hydrocarbon cymene (C10H14) is found in nearly 100 spices and fragrances including coriander, anise, and thyme. The

complete combustion of 1.608 g of cymene in a bomb calorimeter (Ccalorimeter = 3.640 kJ/°C) produced an increase in temperature of 19.35°C. Calculate the molar enthalpy of combustion of cymene (ΔHcomb) in kilojoules per mole of cymene.

Answer:

5878 kJ/mol

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of energy, the sum of the heat released by the combustion and the heat absorbed by the calorimeter is zero.

Qcomb + Qcal = 0

Qcomb = -Qcal    [1]

The heat absorbed by the calorimeter (Qcal) can be calculated using the following expression:

Qcal = Ccal . ΔT = 3.640 kJ/°C × 19.35°C = 70.43 kJ

where,

Ccal is the heat capacity of the calorimeter

ΔT is the difference in temperature

From [1],

Qcomb = - 70.43 kJ

Since this heat is measured at constant pressure, the molar enthalpy of combustion of cymene is:

\Delta Hcomb=\frac{-70.43kJ}{1.608g} .\frac{134.21g}{mol} =5878kJ/mol

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
