What molecule reacts with pyruvic acid to release CO2?
Coenzyme A reacts with pyruvic acid to form acetyl-CoA and release CO2.
How many water molecules were released during the synthesis of a protein that contains 500 amino acids?
The number of water molecules required is equal to the number of peptide bonds that need to be broken. In a polypeptide of 9 amino acids, there are 8 peptide bonds between them. You therefore need 8 molecules of water to hydrolyse those bonds.
Is CO2 an acid?
CO2 itself is not an acid, since it doesnt make hydrogen ions (H+). But it does become an acid when in contact with water. CO2 in water becomes carbonic acid. Carbonic acid (H2CO3) is a weak acid capable of splitting of a H+.
What molecule is reduced in the Calvin Cycle?
In the Calvin Cycle, the molecule that is reduced is carbon dioxide (CO2).
What moves through the lipid bilayer of a plasma membrane most rapidly K glucose an amino acid CO2 or starch?
CO2 would move most rapidly through the lipid bilayer of a plasma membrane due to its small size and non-polar nature, allowing it to pass through freely via simple diffusion. Glucose, amino acids, and starch are larger molecules that would require specific transport proteins or channels to facilitate their passage through the lipid bilayer.
How many CO2 are produced during the transition reaction and the citric acid cycle per glucose molecule?
Two Co2 molecules are produced per citric acid cycle. Since the citric acid cycle occurs twice with every molecule of glucose metabolized, a total of 4 C02 molecules are produces for every glucose molecule
What molecule reacts with pyruvic acid to release CO2?
Coenzyme A reacts with pyruvic acid to form acetyl-CoA and release CO2.
What does carbonic acid do to your drinks?
carbonates it. The carbonic acid dissolves into the drink and loses an oxygen molecule turning it into co2.
Is CO2 a base acid or salt?
When CO2 is dissolved with water creates H2CO3 which is a acid
Is CO2 a base?
It's not a base,it's an acid. CO2 in the air is actually neither a base or an acid. However, when it comes into contact with water it reacts to become H2CO3, which is an acid.
Is CO2 a compound molecule?
CO2 is both a compound and a molecule.
Is CO2 an acid or a base in chemical reactions?
CO2 is neither an acid nor a base in chemical reactions. It is a nonpolar molecule that does not ionize in water to produce H or OH- ions, which are characteristic of acids and bases, respectively.
Is CO2 plus 6H2O a chemical or physical reaction?
CO2 reacts with H2O in one molar ratio forming the carbonic acid . one CO2 molecule can not react with 6 water molecules......
Is CO2 a acid?
No, CO2, or carbon dioxide, is not an acid.
Pyruvic acid loses a molecule of BLANK to produce acetic acid which then enters the citric acid cycle?
Carbon dioxide. Pyruvic acid undergoes decarboxylation to lose a carbon dioxide molecule and form acetic acid. This acetic acid then combines with Coenzyme A to form acetyl-CoA, which enters the citric acid cycle.
Why oxidation of formic acid does not produce HO COOH?
Oxidation of formic acid with K2CrO4 produces carbonic acid (HO COOH), but this molecule is very unstable, it tends to decompose in CO2 and H2O.
During a single turn of the citric acid cycle what is generated?
During a single turn of the citric acid cycle, one molecule of ATP, three molecules of NADH, one molecule of FADH2, and two molecules of CO2 are generated.
