Answer:

Explanation:

The actual answer is B. The equation has an acid on one side and a base on the other. The acid donates a proton. Donates means gives up the equivalent of a proton.

If each NADHNADH generates 3 ATPATP molecules and each FADH2FADH2 generates 2 ATPATP molecules, calculate the number of ATPATP m

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

$128~ATP$

Explanation:

The metabolic pathway by which energy can be obtained from a fatty acid is called "beta-oxidation". In this route, acetyl-Coa is produced by removing 2 carbons from the fatty acid for each acetyl-Coa produced. In other words, for each round, 1 acetyl Coa is produced and for each round 2 carbons are removed from the initial fatty acid. Therefore, the first step is to calculate the number of rounds that will take place for an 18-carbon fatty acid using the following equation:

$Number~of~Rounds=\frac{n}{2}-1$

Where "n" is the number of carbons, in this case "18", so:

$Number~of~Rounds=\frac{18}{2}-1~=~8$

We also have to calculate the amount of Acetyl-Coa produced:

$Number~of~Acetyl-Coa=\frac{18}{2}~=~9$

Now, we have to keep in mind that in each round in the beta-oxidation we will have the production of 1 $FADH_2$ and 1 $NADH$ . So, if we have 8 rounds we will have 8 $FADH_2$ and 8 $NADH$ .

Finally, for the total calculation of ATP. We have to remember the yield for each compound:

-) $1~FADH_2~=~2~ATP$

-) $1~NADH~=~3~ATP$

-) $Acetyl~CoA~=~10~ATP$

Now we can do the total calculation:

$(8*2)~+~(8*3)~+~(9*10)=130~ATP$

We have to subtract "2 ATP" molecules that correspond to the activation of the fatty acid, so:

$130-2=128~ATP$

In total, we will have 128 ATP.

I hope it helps!

The density of lead is 11.4g/cm3. What volume, in ft3, would be occupied by 10.0 g of lead?

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

3.10×10¯⁵ ft³.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Density (D) of lead = 11.4 g/cm³

Mass (m) of lead = 10 g

Volume (V) of lead =.?

Density (D) = mass (m) / Volume (V)

D = m/V

11.4 = 10 / V

Cross multiply

11.4 × V = 10

Divide both side by 11.4

V = 10 / 11.4

V = 0.877 cm³

Finally, we shall convert 0.877 cm³ to ft³. This can be obtained as follow:

1 cm³ = 3.531×10¯⁵ ft³

Therefore,

0.877 cm³ = 0.877 cm³ × 3.531×10¯⁵ ft³ /1 cm³

0.877 cm³ = 3.10×10¯⁵ ft³

Thus, 0.877 cm³ is equivalent to 3.10×10¯⁵ ft³.

Therefore, the volume of the lead in ft³ is 3.10×10¯⁵ ft³.

Determine the empirical formula of a compound containing 1.71 g of silicon and 8.63 g of chlorine.

Basile [38]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: SiCl₄

Explanation:

Data

amount of Si 1.71 g

amount of Cl 8.63 g

MW Si = 28 g

MW Cl = 35.5

Process (rule of three)

For Si For Cl

28 g of Si ------------------ 1 mol 35.5 g of Cl --------------- 1 mol

1.71g of Si --------------- x 8.63 g of Cl -------------- x

x = 1.71 x 1 / 28 = 0.06 mol x = 8.63 x 1 / 35.5 = 0.24 mol

Now, divide both results by the lowest of them.

Si = 0.06 mol / 0.06 = 1 molecule of Si Cl = 0.24 / 0.06 = 4 molecules of Cl

Finally

Si₁ Cl₄ or SiCl₄
