In glycolysis, if glucose is labeled at the carbon 6 position (see page 1 for numbering of carbons in glucose) A) the carbon wit
Oliga [24]

Answer:

D) the carbon with the low-energy phosphate on it in 1,3 BPG is labeled.

Explanation:

Glycolysis has 2 phase (1) preparatory phase (2) pay-off phase.

<u>(1) Preparatory phase</u>

During preparatory phase glucose is converted into fructose-1,6-bisphosphate. Till this time the carbon numbering remains the same i.e. if we will label carbon at 6th position of glucose, its position will remian the same in fructose-1,6-bisphosphate that means the labeled carbon will still remain at 6th position.

When fructose-1,6-bisphosphate is further catalyzed with the help of enzyme aldolase it is cleaved into two 3 carbon intermediates which are glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (GAP) and dihyroxyacetone  phosphate (DHAP).  In this conversion, the first three carbons of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate become carbons of DHAP while the last three carbons of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate will become carbons of GAP. It simply means that GAP will acquire the last carbon of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate which is labeled. Now the last carbon of GAP which has phosphate will be labeled.  

<u>(2) Pay-off phase</u>

During this phase, GAP is dehydrogenated into 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate (BPG) with the help of enzyme glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase. This oxidation is coupled to phosphorylation of C1 of GAP and this is the reason why 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate has phosphates at 2 positions i.e. at position 1 in which phosphate is newly added and position 3rd which already had labeled carbon.

It is pertinent to mention here that<u> BPG has a mixed anhydride and the bond at C1 is a very high energy bond.</u> In the next step, this high energy bond is hydrolyzed into a carboxylic acid with the help of enzyme phosphoglycerate kinase and the final product is 3-phosphoglycerate. Hence, the carbon with low energy phosphate i.e. the carbon at 3rd position remains labeled.

SOVA2 [1]

initial volume of the argon sample = 5.93L according to Boyle's law

What is Boyle's law ?

Boyle's law, also known as Mariotte's law, is a relationship describing how a gas will compress and expand at a constant temperature. The pressure (p) of a given quantity of gas changes inversely with its volume (v) at constant temperature, according to this empirical connection, which was established by the physicist Robert Boyle in 1662. In equation form, this means that pv = k, a constant.

According to Boyle's law

P1/V1 = P2/V2

P1 = initial pressure

P2 = final pressure

V1 =initial volume

V2= final volume

V1 = P1*V2/P2

V1 = 2.32*18.3/7.16 = 5.93L

initial volume of the argon sample = 5.93L according to Boyle's law

A sample of pure tin metal is dissolved in nitric acid to produce 15.00 mL of solution containing Sn2+. When this tin solution i
Rudik [331]

Answer:

1.00 M

Explanation:

Sn^2+ reacts with KMNO4 as follows;

5Sn^2+(aq) + 2MnO4^-(aq) + 16H^+(aq) ----> 5Sn^4+(aq) + 2Mn^+(aq) + 8H2O(l)

The number of moles of MnO4^- reacted = 42.1/1000 L × 0.145 mol/L

= 0.0061 moles

If 5 moles of Sn^2+ reacts with 2 moles of MnO4^-

x moles of Sn^2+ reacts with 0.0061 moles of MnO4^-

x= 5 × 0.0061/2

x= 0.015 moles

Since the volume of the Sn^2+ solution is 15.00mL or 0.015 L

number of moles = concentration × volume

Concentration = number of moles/volume

Concentration= 0.015 moles/0.015 L

Concentration = 1 M
