stepan [7]2 years ago

Answer:

The correct option is D

Explanation:

Normally, beta-oxidation of fatty acid occurs in the mitchondrial matrix, however, when the fatty acid chains are too long, the beta-oxidation occurs in the peroxisomes <u>where the oxidation is not attached to ATP synthesis but rather transferred (i.e high energy electrons are transferred) to O₂ to form hydrogen peroxide</u> (H₂O₂). This is the major difference between the beta-oxidation that occurs in the peroxisomes to that which occurs in the mitochondria.

In IR spectroscopy, we normally talk about "frequencies" when in reality we are referring to wavenumbers. What is the mathematic
Svetach [21]

Answer:

Here's what I get.

Explanation:

(b) Wavenumber and wavelength

The wavenumber is the distance over which a cycle repeats, that is, it is the number of waves in a unit distance.

\bar \nu = \dfrac{1}{\lambda}

Thus, if λ = 3 µm,

\bar \nu = \dfrac{1}{3 \times 10^{-6} \text{ m}}= 3.3 \times 10^{5}\text{ m}^{-1} = \textbf{3300 cm}^{-1}

(a) Wavenumber and frequency

Since

λ = c/f and 1/λ = f/c

the relation between wavenumber and frequency is

\bar \nu = \mathbf{\dfrac{f}{c}}

Thus, if f = 90 THz

\bar \nu = \dfrac{90 \times 10^{12} \text{ s}^{-1}}{3 \times 10^{8} \text{ m$\cdot$ s}^{-1}}= 3 \times 10^{5} \text{ m}^{-1} = \textbf{3000 cm}^{-1}

(c) Units

(i) Frequency

The units are s⁻¹ or Hz.

(ii) Wavelength

The SI base unit is metres, but infrared wavelengths are usually measured in micrometres (roughly 2.5 µm to 20 µm).

(iii) Wavenumber

The SI base unit is m⁻¹, but infrared wavenumbers are usually measured in cm⁻¹ (roughly 4000 cm⁻¹ to 500 cm⁻¹).

identify each material as a compound or a mixture. Caffeine contains hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen atoms in a fixed rat
vitfil [10]
Answer: caffeine is a compound.

Explanation:

1) As stated c<span>affeine contains hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen atoms in a fixed ratio.

2) The definition of compound is a pure substance formed by chemical bonding of two or more fifferent elements. That means a defined ratio of the elements in the compound, which conferes uniform and equal properties to every part of the compound.

Some examples of compounds are salt (NaCl), water (H2O), vinegard (CH3 COOH).

A mixture combines several elements or compounds, not bonded by chemical bonds but mixed in ratios which may vary.

Acid strength in a series of h−a molecules increases with increasing size of
-BARSIC- [3]
Hello there!

The statement that Acid strength in a series of H-A molecules increases with increasing size of A is True.

When only the size is involved, increasing the size will increase the Acid strength because as size increases, the H-A bond will become weaker as the atoms will be farther apart. Acid strength is related to the ability to release H⁺ ions and a weaker H-A bond will release H⁺ more easily. 

Have a nice day!
