Which of the following represents a scenario of potassium cyanide toxicity?

Damm [24]3 years ago

Answer:

Oxidative phosphorylation that generates most of the ATP is blocked, and oxygen cannot accept the electrons from NADH.

Explanation: Sorry this is late and may be wrong but it is my best guess and here is why:

Potassium cyanide blocks the ETC where the majority of ATP is produced. The ETC is a oxidative phosphorylation process where oxygen is needed as the final electron acceptor of NADH.  

The first answer can be eleminated because oxidative phosphorylation produces the most ATP.

The second answer can be eleminated because chemiosmosis does not generate ALL the ATP during cellular respiration, but does produce most of it. Still they worded it as an "all or nothing" type of question so I don't think it is correct.

The fourth answer may not be correct because NAD does not pass on an electron to NADH. Instead, NADH donstes electrons to the ETC and is then turned into NAD. So the process listed is technically backwords.

Sorry I can't be sure about the answer but this is how I broke it down.

sammy [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Oxygen gas and water must be present for iron to rust.

A region of the metal’s surface serves as the anode, where oxidation

occurs:

Fe(s) → Fe²⁺ (aq) + 2 e⁻

The electrons given up by iron reduce atmospheric oxygen to water at the cathode, which is another region of the same metal’s surface:

O₂ (g) + 4H⁺ (aq) + 4 e⁻ → 2 H₂O (l)

The overall redox reaction is:

2 Fe(s) + O₂(g) → 4H⁺(aq) + 2Fe²⁺ (aq) + 2 H₂O(l)

The Fe²⁺ ions formed at the anode are further oxidized by oxygen:

4 Fe²⁺ (aq) + O₂(g) 1 (4 + 2x) H₂O (l) → 2 Fe₂O₃ . xH₂O(s) + 8 H⁺(aq)

This hydrated form of iron(III) oxide is known as rust. The amount of water associated with the iron oxide varies, so we represent the formula as 2 Fe₂O₃ . xH₂O.
