One acetyl group produces 1 molecule of FADH2 in the citric acid cycle.
During cellular respiration, one molecule of pyruvate is converted into one molecule of acetyl-CoA before entering the Krebs cycle. This conversion reduces one molecule of NAD to NADH. In the Krebs cycle, each acetyl-CoA generates three NADH and one FADH2. Therefore, from one pyruvate, a total of four NADH and one FADH2 are produced.
During one turn of the Krebs cycle (also known as the citric acid cycle or TCA cycle), three molecules of NADH and one molecule of FADH2 are produced. Since each glucose molecule yields two acetyl-CoA molecules, the overall yield from one glucose molecule is six NADH and two FADH2. These electron carriers are then utilized in the electron transport chain to generate ATP.
Two FADH2 molecules are produced in the preparatory step of cellular respiration.
One molecule of acetyl CoA enters the citric acid cycle (Krebs cycle), where it produces 3 NADH, 1 FADH2, and 1 ATP (or GTP). Each NADH can generate approximately 2.5 ATP and each FADH2 can produce about 1.5 ATP during oxidative phosphorylation. Thus, from one acetyl CoA: 3 NADH × 2.5 ATP/NADH = 7.5 ATP 1 FADH2 × 1.5 ATP/FADH2 = 1.5 ATP 1 ATP (from direct substrate-level phosphorylation) Adding these together gives: 7.5 + 1.5 + 1 = 10 ATP. Therefore, one molecule of acetyl CoA can yield about 10 ATP when oxygen is present.

The citric acid cycles converts citrate (produced from the combination of oxaloacetate and Acetyl Coenzyme A) back into oxaloacetate in a series of steps that will end up yielding 2 ATP, 3 NADH and 1 FADH2 per pyruvate. *4 NADH if you include the NADH produced from the creation of Acetyl Coenzyme A in the link reaction.

FADH2 allows for the formation of 2 molecules of ATP during the Kreb's cycle.
20 ATP from 8 NADH 12 ATP from 12 FADH2 9 acetyl co-A --> 9 GTP, 67,5 ATP from 27 NADH, 13,5 ATP from 9 FADH2 minus 2 ATP to start beta-oxidation = 120 ATP
In the Krebs Cycle also known as the Citric Acid Cycle\ FDH2, Reduced form of Flavin adenosine dinucleotide, is an electron donor-acceptor molecules that can transfer the energy (bond) from one molecule to the next, and you are most likely to find it in oxidative phosphorylation process (these are the process where oxygen is the final electron acceptor to form ATP). in the metabolism of fat and glucose FADH2 is produce during Beta oxidation and in the citric acid cycle general mechanism: Fatty acid C16 + FAD^+ ====> Fatty acid C14 + acetyl-Coa +FADH2 Succinate + FAD^+ ====> Fumarate + FADH2
In one turn of the Krebs cycle (also known as the citric acid cycle), each acetyl-CoA that enters produces three NADH and one FADH2. Since one glucose molecule generates two acetyl-CoA molecules during glycolysis, the total electron carriers produced from one glucose molecule are six NADH and two FADH2. Therefore, the total number of electron carriers made in the Krebs cycle from one glucose molecule is eight.
NADH is produced in the mitochondria during the citric acid cycle and the electron transport chain of cellular respiration. FADH2 is also produced in the mitochondria during the citric acid cycle.
The Krebs cycle primarily generates ATP, carbon dioxide, and reduced electron carriers NADH and FADH2. These molecules are essential for energy production in the mitochondria.
