Hexokinase
Glucokinase
ATP is used in the hexokinase reaction because it acts as the source of phosphate for the phosphorylation of glucose to form glucose-6-phosphate. Hexokinase specifically recognizes and phosphorylates glucose, and it has a higher affinity for ATP compared to GTP. Therefore, ATP is the preferred energy source for this reaction.
Fluorine has higher electron affinity than any other element.
Bromine has a higher electron affinity than iodine. This is because bromine has a smaller atomic size, resulting in a stronger attraction for electrons compared to iodine.
Yes. It's true. Chlorine has the highest electron affinity, then Fluorine, Bromine and Iodine
No, nonmetals do not always have higher electron affinity than metals. Electron affinity depends on the specific element and its position in the periodic table. Some metals can have higher electron affinities than certain nonmetals.
Gold; gold has the highest electronic affinity of any atom other than the halogens, due to relativistic effects.
The highest oxygen affinity is demonstrated by fetal hemoglobin (HbF), due to its higher affinity for oxygen compared to adult hemoglobin (HbA). This allows for efficient oxygen transfer from the mother to the fetus in the placenta.
According to Zumdahl, Group 7A elements (halogens) follow the expected behavior or periodicity as you follow top to bottom. The numbers (top to bottom) are getting closer to 0, so they are decreasing in electron affinity. Bromine has a higher negative # therefore it is a higher electron affinity.---papajohn
i know it's higher than corresponding blood glucose concentration from 10 - 15%
No, sulfur has a higher electron affinity than oxygen. Electron affinity is the energy released when an atom gains an electron to form a negative ion, and sulfur's larger size and higher effective nuclear charge make it more likely to attract an additional electron compared to oxygen.
Gold has a higher electron affinity due to its unique electronic configuration and relatively high effective nuclear charge. The presence of a filled 4f subshell and a filled 5d subshell leads to increased stability, making it energetically favorable for gold to gain an electron. Additionally, the strong attraction between the nucleus and the added electron contributes to its higher electron affinity compared to other elements.
