Why isn't water used in a voltaic cell?

Because electrons can't flow between water molecules. When ions such as copper II chloride are dissociated in solution, electrons are able to flow freely between Cu and Cl ions in the cell via the salt bridge


During cell respiration what is the purpose of NADH?

NADH is a coenzyme that carries electrons from glucose molecules through the electron transport chain in the mitochondria. These electrons are used to generate ATP, the cell's primary energy source, through a process called oxidative phosphorylation.


What is used in cell respiration?

no oxygen is used

Why respiration rates may increase in root hair cell during the uptake of minerals ions?

Respiration rates may increase in root hair cells during the uptake of mineral ions because the minerals are taken up into the plant against the concentration gradient. This requires energy to use active transport, which then increases the rate of respiration.

What is the role of NADH in cellular respiration?

NADH plays a crucial role in cellular respiration by carrying high-energy electrons to the electron transport chain, where they are used to generate ATP, the cell's main source of energy.


Why does hydrogen gas liberate at Cu electrode in Zn-Cu cell?

In a zinc-copper cell, zinc gives up electrons, forming the negative terminal of the cell, and the electrons flows as electric current through wires. When the electrons reach the other positive terminal, electrolysis of the electrolyte takes place at the positive terminal. Hydrogen ions and the cation of the electrolyte will be attracted to the positive Copper electrode. The hydrogen ions, being less reactive than the cation ions, will take up the electrons on the copper electrode, forming hydrogen gas.


What cell organelle is used for respiration?

What happens when sodium ions come in contact with the negative electrode in a cell used for electrolysis?

When sodium ions come in contact with the negative electrode in a cell used for electrolysis, they accept electrons and get reduced to form sodium metal. This process occurs as part of the overall electrolysis reaction, where positive ions are reduced at the negative electrode while negative ions are oxidized at the positive electrode.

How is Oxygen used in respiration?

Oxygen is used in respiration to accept electrons during the electron transport chain, which produces ATP energy. Without oxygen, the process of respiration cannot be completed efficiently, leading to decreased ATP production and energy for the cell.
