Shells (electrons) - located in the cloud
nucleus- located in the center
energy level - is determined by the electron count ( level 1 - 2 electrons
level 2 - 8 electrons
level 3- 18 electrons)
Answer:
c. decarboxylation of an a-keto acid.
Explanation:
Decarboxylation refers to the removal of the carboxyl group from a carboxylic acid and thus releasing carbon dioxide. Decarboxylases are enzymes that speed up the removal of the carboxyl group from acids. These reactants could be amino acids, alpha-keto acids, and beta-keto acids. Biotin is known to catalyze the decarboxylation of malonyl CoA to acetyl CoA during fatty acid synthesis.
Malonyl CoA is converted to acetyl CoA after decarboxylation assisted by biotin also known as Vitamin H. Alpha keto acids are involved in fatty acids synthesis and Malonyl CoA is an alpha-keto acid because the keto group is located in the first carbon near the carboxylic acid group. Keto acids have both a carboxyl group and a ketone group.
Mean: the average. you have to add the values of the numbers and then divide by the amount of numbers there are. a common mistake to avoid is forgetting to divide the numbers at the end or subtracting them instead of adding.
mean: the middle number. you would first need to order the numbers from least to greatest. a common mistake to avoid is finding the middle number before ordering it from least to greatest
these two can also be commonly mistaken for one another because of the similar spelling.
i think the answer is C3H8O
B. Heating up the reaction will increase the entropy of a reaction.
<h3>
What is entropy?</h3>
Entropy is the measure of the degree of disorderliness of a system.
Entropy is also the measure of a system's thermal energy per unit temperature that is unavailable for doing useful work.
S = ΔH/T
where;
- S is entropy
- ΔH is energy input
- T is temperature
Entropy increases in reactions in which the total number of product molecules is greater than the total number of reactant molecules.
However, entropy increases as temperature increases. Thus, heating up the reaction will increase the entropy of a reaction.
