Answer:
Total number of ATP molecules generated from a 32-carbon fatty acid = 206 ATP molecules
Explanation:
A 32 carbon fatty acid which undergoes complete beta-oxidation assuming that the fatty acid is fully saturated will pass through the beta-oxidation cycle 14 times to produce the following:
15 molecules of acetylCoA, 14 molecules of FADH₂, and 14 molecules of NADH.
Each of the 15 acetylCoA molecules can be further oxidized in the citric acid cycle to yield the following: 15 × 3 NADH; 15 × 1 FADH₂, and 15 ATP molecules from the substrate level phosphorylation occuring at the succinylCoA synthetase catalyzed-reaction.
Total FADH₂ produced = 15 + 14 = 29 molecules of FADH₂
Total NADH produced = 45 + 14 = 59 molecules of NADH
The FADH₂ and NADH will each donate a pair of electrons to the electron transfer flavoprotein and mitochondrial NADH dehydrogenase respectively of the electron transport chain, and about 1.5 and 2.5 molecules of ATP are generated respectively when these electrons are transfered to molecular oxygen.
Thus, number of molecules of ATP generated by 29 molecules of FADH₂ = 1.5 × 29 = 43.5 molecules of ATP.
Number of molecules of ATP generated by 59 molecules of NADH = 2.5 × 59 = 147.5
Sum of ATP generated from FADH₂ and NADH = 43.5 + 147.5 = 191 ATP molecules
Total number of ATP molecules generated = 191 + 15 = 206 ATP molecules
Total number of ATP molecules generated from a 32-carbon fatty acid = 206 ATP molecules
Answer:
The volume increases because the temperature increases and is 2.98L
Explanation:
Charles's law states that the volume of a gas is directely proportional to its temperature. That means if a gas is heated, its volume will increase and vice versa. The equation is:
V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂
<em>Where V is volume and T is absolute temperature of 1, initial state, and 2, final state of the gas.</em>
In the problem, the gas is heated, from 53.00°C (53.00 + 273.15 = 326.15K) to 139.00°C (139.00 + 273.15 = 412.15K).
Replacing in the Charles's law equation:
2.36L / 326.15K= V₂/412.15K
<h3>2.98L = V₂</h3>

Answer:</h2>
We will need to know Avogadro's number and the molar mass of sucrose for this problem to do dimensional analysis.
- Avogadro's number: 6.022 × 10²³ molecules
- Molar mass of sucrose: 342.2965 g/mol
250g ×
×
= 4.398 molecules
There are <em>4.398 sucrose molecules </em>in 250 grams of sucrose.
They have a sea of delocalised electrons which are free to move therefore they can carry a current
