Answer:

sulfide ion

Explanation:

however, when non-metalic elements gain electrons to form anions the end of their name is change to "-ide".foe example, a flourin atom gains one electronto become a flouride ion(F`) and sulfur gains two electrons to become a sulfide ion(s^2)

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!

Answer:

She should suspect a Tornado.

Explanation:

Tornadoes form when warm humid air collides with cold dry air. The denser the cold air is pushed over warm air, causing an updraft. As soon as it reaches the ground a tornado is formed.

A sample of an unknown gas at STP has a density of 0.630 gram per liter. What is the gram molecular mass of this gas?

jeyben [28]

STP means standard temperature and pressure at 0°C (273K) and 1 atm (atmosphere). The density of the unknown gas is 0.63 gram per liter. The deal gas equation is PV = nRT. The n is the numer of moles and can be represented as mass of the gas, m, divided by the molar mass, c. so we have,

PV = nRT
PV = (m/c)RT
Since the density is d = m/V
Pc = (m/V)RT
Pc = dRT
c = drT/P

substitute the values into the equation,
c = [(0.63g/L)(0.08206 L-atm/mol-K)(273K)]/(1atm)
c = 14.11 g/mol
