Which compound contains a triple bond?

Masteriza [31]

Answer: C2H2

Explanation: Because each of the lines represent one bond, and because there are three lines (bonds) between the carbons, it means that they are bonded by three bonds, also known as a triple bond.

A piston in a heat engine does 500 joules of work, and 1400 joules of heat are added to the system. Determine the change in inte

san4es73 [151]

Answer : The change in internal energy is, 900 Joules.

Solution : Given,

Heat given to the system = +1400 J

Work done by the system = -500 J

Change in internal energy is equal to the sum of heat energy and work done.

Formula used :

$\Delta U=q+w$

where,

$\Delta U$ = change in internal energy

q = heat energy

w = work done

As per question, heat is added to the system that means, q is positive and work done by the system that means, w is negative.

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get

$\Delta U=(+1400J)+(-500J)=900J$

Therefore, the change in internal energy is 900 J.

The change in internal energy depends on the heat energy and work done. As we will change in the heat energy and work done, then changes will occur in the internal energy. Hence, the energy is conserved.

Transamination of an amino acid transfers an amine group to form an α‑keto acid and is catalyzed by transaminases. Some amino ac

iragen [17]

Answer:

Amino acids that fall under the first category are alanine, aspartate and glutamate. While amino acids that fall under the second category are glycine, valine, proline, leucine, isoleucine, methionine, serine, threonine, cysteine, asparagine, glutamine, phenylalanine, tryptophan, tyrosine, lysine, arginine and histidine

Explanation:

Alanine, a 3-carbon amino acid reacts with α-ketoglutarate, a 5-carbon ketoacid, to produce pyruvate, a 3-carbon compound which is one of the glycolytic products in aerobic respiration, and glutamate, a 5-carbon amino acid, with the aid of alanine transaminase (ALT). The amino group from alanine is transfered from the α-carbon of alanine to the α-carbon of the α-ketoglutarate.

Aspartate, a 4-carbon amino acid also reacts with α-ketoglutarate to form oxaloacetate, a 4-carbon ketoacid which is present as an intermediate in the citric acid cycle, and glutamate. The amino group transfer occurs between the α-carbon of aspartate and the α-carbon of α-ketoglutarate.

Unlike the presence of a ketoacid in the conversion of alanine and aspartate to their corresponding amino acids, glutamate conversion to α-ketoglutarate, an intermediate in the citric acid cycle, involves no ketoacids as an amino group acceptor from glutamate. The amino group is freely released as an ammonium ion. The reaction involves the presence of a cofactor, NAD+ or NADP+, water (H2O) and glutamate dehygrogenase (GDH).

Other amino acids involve several metabolic steps to be converted into glycolytic or citric acid intermediates.
