________ splits fatty acids into two-carbon units that form acetyl-coa and releases high-energy electrons.

1 answer:

4 0

The answer is beta oxidation. It is a process in which molecules particularly fatty acids are cracked down in the prokaryotes’ cytosol and in the mitochondria in eukaryotes to produce acetyl-CoA, which goes in the citric acid cycle, <span>FADH2</span>, and NADH which are co-enzymes that are cast-off in the electron transport chain. The major response site is the beta-carbon from the thioester carbon.

5.6 g of solid CO2 is put in an empty sealed 4.00 L container at a temperature of

tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

0.78 atm

Explanation:

Step 1:

Data obtained from the question. This includes:

Mass of CO2 = 5.6g

Volume (V) = 4L

Temperature (T) =300K

Pressure (P) =?

Step 2:

Determination of the number of mole of CO2.

This is illustrated below:

Mass of CO2 = 5.6g

Molar Mass of CO2 = 12 + (2x16) = 12 + 32 = 44g/mol

Number of mole CO2 =?

Number of mole = Mass/Molar Mass

Number of mole of CO2 = 5.6/44

Number of mole of CO2 = 0.127 mole

Step 3:

Determination of the pressure in the container.

The pressure in the container can be obtained by applying the ideal gas equation as follow:

PV = nRT

The gas constant (R) = 0.082atm.L/Kmol

The number of mole (n) = 0.127 mole

P x 4 = 0.127 x 0.082 x 300

Divide both side by 4

P = (0.127 x 0.082 x 300) /4

P = 0.78 atm

Therefore, the pressure in the container is

A tank contains 115 miles of neon gas. It has a pressure of 57 atm at a temperature of 45 c. Calculate the volume of the tank.

Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

Volume occupied by Neon gas is 52.67 L

Explanation:

Using Ideal Gas Equation:

PV = nRT

where

P = pressure exerted by the gas = 57 atm

V = volume occupied = ?

n = number of moles = 115 moles

R = Ideal gas constant = 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol

(R value should be taken according to the units of Temperature,pressure, volume and mole)

T = Temperature = 45 + 273 = 318 K

(For temperature conversion from C to K add 273 to temperature:T + 273)

PV = nRT , So

$V = \frac{nRT}{P}$

Put values of T,P,n,R

$V = \frac{115\times 0.0821\times 318}{57}$

$V = \frac{3002.39}{57}$

V = 52.67 L

Volume occupied by 115 moles of Neon gas at 57 atm Pressure and 45 C temperature is 52.67 L

Calculate the quantity of energy required to change 8.22 mol of liquid water to steam at 100oc. the molar heat of vaporization o

Ainat [17]

Since the water is at 100 degrees then it take 40.6 kj/mol to change 1 mole of water at 100 degrees into steam at 100 degrees
the moles of water 8.22mol
since one mole take 40.6kj/mol 8.22mol will be =
8.22mol x 40.6 kj/mol =333.732 kj
