How many positive charges are in the nucleus of a carbon atom

Biology
1 answer:
andrezito [222]3 years ago
5 0
Neutral carbon-12 (or any carbon atom) has 6 electrons with a total negative charge of 6e- orbiting a nucleus with a total positive charge of 6e+, so that the total net charge is zero. The nucleus is made up of 6 protons, each with a positive charge of e+, and 6 neutrons, each with zero charge.

Imagine that a toxin is introduced to the body and inhibits the establishment of the proton gradient in the intermembrane space.
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

ATP synthase would be unable to produce ATP

Explanation:

ATP synthase depends on the proton gradient in the intermembrane space to enable it to produce ATP. As a consequence of this, the toxin will make it inactive. Oxidative phosphorylation is now inhibited in this case, as opposed to substrate-level phosphorylation.

Pyruvate is a product of glycolysis, and it will not be affected by a toxin. NADH is very important in the establishing of a proton gradient, so it is expected that it would be unable to be oxidized due to the toxin. Protons produced in the conversion of NADH to NAD+ actually establish the proton gradient. If the gradient is absent, NADH is then not likely to be oxidized.

son4ous [18]

Answer:

A small rocky body orbiting the sun.

Explanation:

Large numbers of these, ranging in size from nearly 600 miles (1,000 km) across (Ceres) to dust particles, are found (as the asteroid belt ) especially between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter, though some have more eccentric orbits, and a few pass close to the earth or enter the atmosphere as meteors.

A material was cooled from 100ºC to 40ºC. What is the temperature change?The specific heat of water is 4.18J/goC. I need the ful
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

-60°C

Explanation:

According to this question, a material was cooled from 100ºC to 40ºC.

The temperature change, which is symbolized by ∆T = final temperature - initial temperature

That is, ∆T = T2 - T1

In this question, T2 = 40°C, T1 = 100°C

Hence, ∆T = 40°C - 100°C

∆T = -60°C
