  3. Catalysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catalysis

    2 NO + O 22 NO 2 (rate-determining) NO 2 + SO 2 → NO + SO 3 (fast) The NO catalyst is regenerated. The overall rate is the rate of the slow step [15] v=2k 1 [NO] 2 [O 2]. An example of heterogeneous catalysis is the reaction of oxygen and hydrogen on the surface of titanium dioxide (TiO 2, or titania) to produce water.

    The IUPAC's rules for naming organic and inorganic compounds are contained in two publications, known as the Blue Book [1] [2] and the Red Book, [3] respectively. A third publication, known as the Green Book , [ 4 ] recommends the use of symbols for physical quantities (in association with the IUPAP ), while a fourth, the Gold Book , [ 5 ...

  5. Terminology - Wikipedia

    However, the reason for CAM in aquatic plants is not due to a lack of available water, but a limited supply of CO 2. [15] CO 2 is limited due to slow diffusion in water, 10000x slower than in air. The problem is especially acute under acid pH, where the only inorganic carbon species present is CO 2 , with no available bicarbonate or carbonate ...

    A score of 1 is the lowest level of complexity, and a score of 3 indicates the highest level. Score 2 is assigned when the characteristics for a particular test are intermediate between the descriptions listed for scores of 1 and 3. [5] Criteria for categorization: Knowledge; Training and experience; Reagents and materials preparation

  9. Beta oxidation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beta_oxidation

    Steps in beta-oxidation of odd-numbered saturated fatty acids [15] For an odd-numbered saturated fat (C n), 0.5 * n - 1.5 oxidations are necessary, and the final process yields 8 acetyl CoA and 1 propionyl CoA. It is then converted to a succinyl CoA by a carboxylation reaction and generates additional 5 ATP (1 ATP is consumed in carboxylation ...
