Protons: 7

the overall equation for the conversation of pyruvate to acetyl COA is as below
CH3COO-COO- + NAD+ + HS-COA = ch3-COO-S -COA +NADH +CO2
The oxidation of pyruvate led to a conversation of NAD+ to NADH and produces acetyl COA and CO2
Explanation:
Balanced chemical reaction equation will be as follows.

In human body, the neutral iron changes into
(aq) cation. There will be an oxidation-half reaction and a reduction-half reaction. Equations for this reaction are as follows.
Oxidation: 2Fe^{2+}(aq) \rightleftharpoons 2Fe^{3+}(aq) + 2e^{-}[/tex] .... (1)
Reduction:
...... (2)
On adding both equation (1) and (2), the overall reaction equation will be as follows.

Therefore, neutral iron is a part of Heme - b group of Hemoglobin and in an aqueous solution it dissolutes as a part of Heme group. Hence, then it becomes an
cation.
