Answer:
Explanation: M(PCL5)= 31 + 5(35.5)
=208.5g/mol
M(H20)= 18g/mol
n(PCL5) = 75.5÷208.5
= 0.362mol
n(HCl)/n(PCL5)= 5/1
n(HCl)= 5×0.362
=1.81mol of HCl
Given the information below, which is more favorable energetically, the oxidation of succinate to fumarate by NAD+ or by FAD? Fumarate + 2H+ + 2e- → Succinate E°´ = 0.031 V NAD+ + 2H+ + 2e- → NADH + H+ E°´ = -0.320 FAD + 2H+ + 2e- → FADH2 E°´ = -0.219
Answer:
Oxidation by FAD
Explanation:
1. Oxidation by NAD⁺
Succinate ⇌ Fumarate + 2H⁺ + 2e⁻; E°´ = -0.031 V
NAD⁺ + 2H⁺ + 2e⁻ ⇌ NADH + H⁺; E°´ = -0.320 V
Succinate + NAD⁺ ⇌ Fumarate + NADH + H⁺; E°' = -0.351 V
2. Oxidation by FAD
Succinate ⇌ Fumarate + 2H⁺ + 2e⁻; E°´ = -0.031 V
FAD + 2H⁺ + 2e⁻ ⇌ FADH₂; E°´ = -0.219 V
Succinate + FADH₂ ⇌ Fumarate + FAD; E°' = -0.250 V
Neither reaction is energetically favourable, but FAD has a more positive half-cell potential.
FAD is the stronger oxidizing agent.
The oxidation by FAD has a more positive cell potential, so it is more favourable energetically.
