In the third stage of cellular respiration (Electron Transport Chain), electrons are lost from the NADH and FADH2 molecules. These electrons travel down the electron transport chain which is in the inner membrane of the mitochondria and result in being reactants for the formation of H2O.
What else can I help you with?
When molecules are formed atoms share or loose electrons?
To form a molecule, atoms can share, lose, and gain electrons
How is a molecule formed?
Molecules are formed when atoms lose electrons and then attach themselves to other atoms
DOES platinum gain lose or share electrons?
Platinum typically loses or shares electrons, rather than gaining them. Platinum is a transition metal with an electron configuration that allows it to readily lose its outermost electrons, or to share them in bonding with other elements.
What happens to electrons during cellular respiration?
During cellular respiration, electrons are transferred along the electron transport chain, releasing energy at each step. These electrons ultimately combine with oxygen to form water, facilitating the production of ATP through oxidative phosphorylation.
A molecule is the neutral particle formed when?
A molecule is the neutral particle formed when electrons are shared between atoms. The charge is neutral when electrons are shared, negative when they gain electrons, and positive when they lose electrons.
What part of an atom makes the bond in a molecule?
The electrons in the outer shell of an atom are responsible for forming bonds in a molecule. When atoms come together to form molecules, they share, gain, or lose electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration.
Does the molecule that functions as a reducing agent in a oxidation-reduction reaction gain or lose electron?
A reducing agent loses electrons and is thereby oxidised.
What is the loss of electrons from a molecule?
Oxidation
An atom does not easily lose or gain electrons if it has?
A full outer electron shell. Atoms tend to be more stable when they have a full valence shell, which typically contains eight electrons. This stability makes it less likely for the atom to either lose or gain electrons.
What is the purpose of the anode in an electrochemical cell, and how does it differ from the cathode in terms of their functions and roles within the cell?
The purpose of the anode in an electrochemical cell is to oxidize (lose electrons) and provide electrons to the external circuit. The cathode, on the other hand, is where reduction (gain of electrons) occurs. In summary, the anode releases electrons, while the cathode accepts them, playing opposite roles in the cell's electron flow.
In photosynthesis redox reactions ultimately transfer electrons from where?
§Photosynthesis, like respiration, is a redox (oxidation-reduction) process -Water molecules are split apart by oxidation, which means that they lose electrons along with hydrogen ions (H+) -Then CO2 is reduced to sugar as electrons and hydrogen ions are added to it This means that the electrons are moved from a water molecule to a carbon dioxide molecule. H2O >> CO2
The lose of electrons from a molucule is called?
Lose electrons is oxidation. To gain electrons is reduction.
