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.
Answer:

Silicon (Si) : 28.09 g/mol
Calcium (Ca) : 40.08 g/mol
Rhodium (Rh) : 102.91 g/mol
Explanation:
Add water to mixture to dissolve sugar then filter. sugared water will be the filtrate while the salt & iron fillings will be the residue. use magnet to attract iron fillings and remaining will be salt.
Answer:
440mt/p gallons
Explanation:
We are told that one gallon of paint covers an area of p square feet. Knowing this then, the question becomes how much paint is needed to cover a stripe that is t inches wide and m miles long.
Let us first use the dimensions of the stripe to find how much area that is in square feet. A stripe is rectangular so we will calculate the area as follows:
Area of stripe = width x length
= t inches x m miles (we need to convert both to feet)
= (t inches x 1 ft/12 inches) x (m miles x 5280 ft/1 mi)
=440mt square feet
ow we can find out how much paint will be needed by using ratios
p square feet : 1 gallon
440mt square feet : x
x = 440mt/p gallons
The answer is a change in internal energy causes work to be done and heat to flow into the system.
<u>Explanation:</u>
- The first law of thermodynamics is a similar version of the law of conservation of energy where the energy can neither be created nor be destroyed, it can be transformed from one form to the other.
- It also defines that the work is done and heat flowing into the system is due to the change in internal energy. The sum of all energy including kinetic and potential energy except the displaced energy to the surrounding is known as internal energy.
- ΔU represents the change in internal energy of the system, Q represents the net heat transferred into the system, and W represents the net work done by the system. So +ve Q adds energy to the system and =ve W takes energy from the system. Thus ΔU=Q−W.
