Primary alcohols oxidize to form _____.
jek_recluse [69]
Answer:
            <span>Primary alcohols oxidize to form Carboxylic Acids.

Explanation:
                   Primary Alcohols when treated with Oxidizing agents like </span>K₂Cr₂O₇ and CrO₃<span> produces carboxylic Acids as a final product. This oxidation to Carboxylic Acid first passes through Aldehydes and then is oxidized to carboxylic Acid. 
</span>                   As K₂Cr₂O₇ and CrO₃ are strong oxidizing agents, if a mild oxidizing agent like <span>Pyridinium Chlorochromate (PCC) is used then primary Alcohol will convert into Aldehyde.</span> 
                   So, on reacting with strong oxidizing agent primary alcohol will produce carboxylic acids via aldehydes and when treated with mild oxidizing agent primary alcohol will produce aldehyde.

Which enzyme is not part of gluconeogenesis?
lisov135 [29]

Phosphoenol pyruvate enzyme is not part of gluconeogenesis.

<h3>Phosphoenol pyruvate</h3>

The ester formed when pyruvate and phosphate are combined to form an enol results in phosphoenol pyruvate (2-phosphoenolpyruvate, or PEP). As an anion, it exists. In biochemistry, PEP is a crucial intermediary. Involved in glycolysis and gluconeogenesis, it boasts the highest-energy phosphate bond yet discovered in an organism (61.9 kJ/mol). It also plays a role in carbon fixation and the manufacture of a number of aromatic chemicals in plants. In bacteria, it provides energy for the phosphotransferase system. Enolase reacts with 2-phosphoglyceric acid to produce PEP as a result. Pyruvate kinase (PK) converts PEP to pyruvic acid, and this process produces adenosine triphosphate (ATP) via substrate-level phosphorylation. One of the main units of currency for chemical energy in cells is ATP.
