Hydrogen peroxide can be prepared by the reaction of barium peroxide with sulfuric acid according to the reaction BaO2(s)+H2SO4(
Vesna [10]

Answer:

VH2SO4 = 145.3 mL

Explanation:

Mw BaO2 = 169.33 g/mol

⇒ mol BaO2 = 53.5g * ( mol BaO2 / 169.33 g BaO2) = 0.545 mol BaO2

⇒according to the reaction:

mol BaO2 = mol H2SO4 = 0.545 mol

⇒ V H2SO4 = 0.545 mol H2SO4 * ( L H2SO4 / 3.75 mol H2SO4 )

⇒V H2SO4 = 0.1453 L (145.3 mL)

cricket20 [7]

Answer:

Products are favored.

Explanation:

The acid-base reaction of CH₃COOH (acid) with NH₃ (base) produce:

CH₃COOH + NH₃ ⇄ CH₃COO⁻ +  NH₄⁺ Kr = ?

It is possible to know Kr of the reaction by the sum of acidic dissociations of the half-reactions. That is:

CH₃COOH ⇄ CH₃COO⁻ + H⁺ Ka = 1.8x10⁻⁵

NH₃ + H⁺ ⇄ NH₄⁺ 1/Ka = 1/ 5.6x10⁻¹⁰ = 1.8x10⁹

___________________________________

CH₃COOH + NH₃ ⇄ CH₃COO⁻ +  NH₄⁺ Kr =  1.8x10⁻⁵×1.8x10⁹ = <em>3.2x10⁴</em>

<em> </em>

As Kr is defined as:

Kr =  [CH₃COO⁻] [NH₄⁺] / [CH₃COOH] [NH₃]

And Kr is > 1  

[CH₃COO⁻] [NH₄⁺] > [CH₃COOH] [NH₃],

showing <em>products are favored</em>.

In glycolysis, if glucose is labeled at the carbon 6 position (see page 1 for numbering of carbons in glucose) A) the carbon wit
Oliga [24]

Answer:

D) the carbon with the low-energy phosphate on it in 1,3 BPG is labeled.

Explanation:

Glycolysis has 2 phase (1) preparatory phase (2) pay-off phase.

<u>(1) Preparatory phase</u>

During preparatory phase glucose is converted into fructose-1,6-bisphosphate. Till this time the carbon numbering remains the same i.e. if we will label carbon at 6th position of glucose, its position will remian the same in fructose-1,6-bisphosphate that means the labeled carbon will still remain at 6th position.

When fructose-1,6-bisphosphate is further catalyzed with the help of enzyme aldolase it is cleaved into two 3 carbon intermediates which are glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (GAP) and dihyroxyacetone  phosphate (DHAP).  In this conversion, the first three carbons of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate become carbons of DHAP while the last three carbons of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate will become carbons of GAP. It simply means that GAP will acquire the last carbon of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate which is labeled. Now the last carbon of GAP which has phosphate will be labeled.  

<u>(2) Pay-off phase</u>

During this phase, GAP is dehydrogenated into 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate (BPG) with the help of enzyme glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase. This oxidation is coupled to phosphorylation of C1 of GAP and this is the reason why 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate has phosphates at 2 positions i.e. at position 1 in which phosphate is newly added and position 3rd which already had labeled carbon.

It is pertinent to mention here that<u> BPG has a mixed anhydride and the bond at C1 is a very high energy bond.</u> In the next step, this high energy bond is hydrolyzed into a carboxylic acid with the help of enzyme phosphoglycerate kinase and the final product is 3-phosphoglycerate. Hence, the carbon with low energy phosphate i.e. the carbon at 3rd position remains labeled.
