Chapter 22, Problem 22.17QP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The term mitochondrion has to be defined.

Concept Introduction:

Cell is defined as the smallest and the basic unit of all organisms. It is the functional unit present in all the organisms. Cell consists of three units that are nucleus, cytoplasm and cell membrane. Cytoplasm consists of small structures known as organelles. Mitochondria is one of the organelles present in the cell.

Explanation of Solution

Mitochondria are capsule-shaped organelles similar to the size of a bacterial cell also called as powerhouse of the cell. Mitochondria are double-membrane organelle surrounded by an outer mitochondrial membrane and an inner mitochondrial membrane.

The space between the outer membrane and inner membranes is called intermembrane space. The space inside an inner mitochondrial membrane is called matrix that contains many enzymes of the Krebs cycle and oxidative phosphorylation. The outer mitochondrial membrane protects the organelle and contains many small pores that allow free passage of various molecules into intermembrane space.

Mitochondria transform chemical energy from the food intake into energy that the cell can use. This process is called oxidative phosphorylation.

Using reaction free energy to predict equilibrium composition Consider the following equilibrium: 2NOCI (g) 2NO (g) + Cl2 (g) AGº =41. kJ Now suppose a reaction vessel is filled with 4.50 atm of nitrosyl chloride (NOCI) and 6.38 atm of chlorine (C12) at 212. °C. Answer the following questions about this system: ? rise Under these conditions, will the pressure of NOCI tend to rise or fall? x10 fall Is it possible to reverse this tendency by adding NO? In other words, if you said the pressure of NOCI will tend to rise, can that be changed to a tendency to fall by adding NO? Similarly, if you said the pressure of NOCI will tend to fall, can that be changed to a tendency to rise by adding NO? yes no If you said the tendency can be reversed in the second question, calculate the minimum pressure of NO needed to reverse it. Round your answer to 2 significant digits. 0.035 atm ✓ G 00. 18 Ar
