It is estimated that each electron pair donated by NADH leads to the synthesis of approximately three ATP molecules, whereas each electron pair donated by FADH2 leads to the synthesis of approximately two ATP molecules. What is the underlying reason for the difference in yield for electrons donated by FADH2 versus NADH?

- The Eo values for the NAD/NADH and Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate/1,3- Bisphosphoglycerate conjugate redox pairs are -0.32 V and -0.19 V, respectively. Beginning with 1 M concentrations of each reactant and product at pH 7 and 25 C, which statement is TRUE? Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate would become oxidized; NAD would become reduced. No reaction would occur because all reactants and products are already at their standard concentrations. Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate would become oxidized; NADH2 would be unchanged because it is a cofactor. Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate and 1,3-Bisphosphoglycerate would become oxidized; NAD and NADH would become reduced. 1,3-Bisphosphoglycerate would become reduced; NADH would become oxidized.arrow_forwardBelow are the reduction reactions for oxygen and FAD. ½202 + 2e + 2H+ → H20 E°' = 0.83 V FAD + 2e + 2H* → FADH2 E" = -0.22 V What is the potential (E") for the oxidation of FADH by oxygen? What is the AG®' for the oxidation of FADH, by oxygen?
