Is NADH an electron acceptor?
Not exactly. It is true that NAD is formed during electron transport chain, however, it's not a direct product. NADH is an electron carrier that dumps its electron to the electron transport chain, which oxidizes it into NAD. NAD then goes back to become reduced by glycolysis or citric acid cycle.
