Answer:

The correct answer will be option-The bond holding the last phosphate group breaks.

Explanation:

Adenosine triphosphate or ATP is the energy molecule of the organism as it provides energy to the cell during the metabolic reaction.

The energy is stored in the phosphodiester bonds between the three phosphate molecules in the ATP molecule. The energy is released when the ATP molecule breaks down to ADP and AMP and the phosphate group is released from the molecule.

This release in the energy is used during the metabolic reactions and thus The bond holding the last phosphate group breaks is the correct answer.

If the Ka of a monoprotic weak acid is 5.4 × 10-6, what is the pH of a 0.25 M solution of this acid?

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

The first step is to write the balanced equation of the dissociation of the monoprotic weak acid. This can be assumed to have 1:1 stoichiometric relationships, so the equation and ICE chart are given by:

      HA ---> H^+ + A^-
initial    0.25 0 0
change       -x x x
equilibrium    0.25-x x x

This gives an expression for Ka given by:

Ka = (x)^2/(0.25-x) = 5.4x10^-6
x = 1.159x10^-3 = [H+] = [A-]

pH = -log[H+] = -log[1.159x10^-3] = 2.936
