What numbers and atoms are present in citric acid?

We can ascertain this by looking at the molecular/chemical formula for citric acid which is: C6H8O7 -- The subscript 6 tells us there are 6 carbon atoms per molecule of citric acid


Two carbon molecule that combines with a four carbon molecule already in the citric acid cycle to produce citric acid?

The two-carbon molecule that combines with a four-carbon molecule in the citric acid cycle to produce citric acid is acetyl-CoA. Acetyl-CoA condenses with oxaloacetate (a four-carbon molecule) to form citrate, the first step in the citric acid cycle.

If citric acid has 6 carbon atoms how many carbon atoms are found in succinic acid?

Succinic acid is 'butane-di-oic' acid: HOOC-CH2-CH2-COOH, C4H6O4: So it has got four (4) carbon atoms


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.


In cellular respiration a two carbon molecule combines with a four carbon with four carbon molecules to form citric acid as part of?

In cellular respiration, a two-carbon molecule (acetyl-CoA) combines with a four-carbon molecule (oxaloacetate) to form citric acid in the first step of the citric acid cycle (Krebs cycle). This process occurs in the mitochondria and is essential for the production of ATP through the oxidation of acetyl-CoA.


How many atoms in an acetic acid molecule?

An acetic acid molecule (CH3COOH) contains 10 atoms - 2 carbon atoms, 4 hydrogen atoms, and 2 oxygen atoms.
