Answer:
Number of moles = 10.6 mol
Explanation:
Given data:
Molar mass of H = 1.008 g/mol
Molar mass of C = 12.01 g/mol
Molar mass of O = 16.00 g/mol
Mass of citric acid = 2.03 kg (2.03×1000 = 2030 g)
Number of moles of citric acid = ?
Solution:
Formula:
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Now we will calculate the molar mass of citric acid:
C₆H₈O₇ = (12.01× 6) + (1.008×8) + (16.00×7)
C₆H₈O₇ = 72.06 + 8.064+112
C₆H₈O₇ = 192.124g/mol
Number of moles = 2030 g/ 192.124g/mol
Number of moles = 10.6 mol

Answer:
c. decarboxylation of an a-keto acid.
Explanation:
Decarboxylation refers to the removal of the carboxyl group from a carboxylic acid and thus releasing carbon dioxide. Decarboxylases are enzymes that speed up the removal of the carboxyl group from acids. These reactants could be amino acids, alpha-keto acids, and beta-keto acids. Biotin is known to catalyze the decarboxylation of malonyl CoA to acetyl CoA during fatty acid synthesis.
Malonyl CoA is converted to acetyl CoA after decarboxylation assisted by biotin also known as Vitamin H. Alpha keto acids are involved in fatty acids synthesis and Malonyl CoA is an alpha-keto acid because the keto group is located in the first carbon near the carboxylic acid group. Keto acids have both a carboxyl group and a ketone group.

Pretty much, all you need to do here is multiply all of these out to get your final answer. Not all questions are this easy, but this is certainly one of them.</span>
Answer:
4121 years
Explanation:
From;
0.693/t1/2 = 2.303/t log No/N
t1/2= half life of the carbon-14
No= count rate of the living tissue
N= count rate of the sample
t = age of the sample
0.693/5730 =2.303/t log (13.5/8.2)
1.21 * 10^-4 = 2.303/t * 0.2165
1.21 * 10^-4 = 0.4986/t
t = 0.4986/1.21 * 10^-4
t = 4121 years
