Depending on culture conditions, glucose can be catabolized by yeast to produce ethanol and carbon dioxide, or canbe diverted into other biosynthetic reactions. An inoculum of yeast is added to a solution containing 18 g/L glucose.After some time, only 3.5 g/L glucose remains while the concentration of ethanol is 6 g/L.CGH1206→2C2H,0+2CO2Determine:a) The fractional conversion of glucose to ethanol (remember that fractional conversion values go from 0 to 1 andsome glucose is diverted into other reactions)b) The fractional conversion of glucose, considering all the glucose that was consumed, not only the glucoseconverted to ethanolc) The yield of ethanol from glucose in gram/gram

Glycolysis is the process by which glucose is metabolized to lactic acid according to the equation C6H12O6(aq)2C3H6O3(aq) G=198 kJ at pH 7.0 and 25°C Glycolysis is the source of energy in human red blood cells. In these cells, the concentration of glucose is 5.0103 M, while that of lactic acid is 2.9103 M. Calculate AG for glycolysis in human blood cells under these conditions. Use the equation G=G+RT In Q, where Q is the concentration quotient, analogous to K.

3) A 28 yr old woman is newly sober for the past 3 months after completing an intensive outpatient recovery program. She wants to hang out with her co-workers at happy hour in a local club. She is anxious but goes out with them and orders a soda. She feels good that she was able to go out and not have an alcoholic drink. The following week the same scenario plays out without her having an alcoholic beverage. Is she on the path to staying sober or on the road to relapse? Why?

Zn(s) 2HCI(aq)ZnCl2(aq) + H2(g) Zinc + Hydrochloric Acid Zinc Chloride + Hydrogen What causes the reaction to proceed faster with concentrated acid? The concentrated hydrochloric acid causes more hydrogen gas to be produced. The pressure of hydrogen gas molecules increases as concentration increases. The concentrated hydrochloric acid molecules move faster than in dilute acid. There are more collisions between the zinc and concentrated hydrochloric acid. PREVIOU
The hydrolysis of pyrophosphate to orthophosphate drives biosynthetic reactions such as DNA synthesis. In Escherichia coli, a pyrophosphatase catalyzes this hydrolytic reaction. The pyrophosphatase has a mass of 120 kDa and consists of six identical subunits. A unit of activity for this enzyme, U, is the amount of enzyme that hydrolyzes 10 umol of pyrophosphate in 15 minutes. The purified enzyme has a Vnax of 2800 U per milligram of enzyme. When (S] >> KM, how many micromoles of substrate can 1 mg of enzyme hydrolyze per second? Vnax = umol -s. mg- If cach enzyme subunit has one active site, how many micromoles of active sites, or (E]r, are there in 1 mg of enzyme? (Er = umol - mg-

Consider a protein with five amino acids and three possible energy levels (separated by 1 J/mol) each amino acid can occupy. At what temperature will there be 45% of molecules in conformation A and 55% of molecules in conformation B? Comment on the size of this number and what distribution you would expect at room temperature. What does this mean about how "different" these energy levels are? Look back at the figure and propose an error made in reporting units. What energy unit would have likely been more appropriate in this case?
