The following chart shows the solubility of various ionic compounds in water at 1 atm pressure and room temperature (approx. 25 °C, 298.15 K). "Soluble" means the ionic compound doesn't precipitate, while "slightly soluble" and "insoluble" mean that a solid will precipitate; "slightly soluble" compounds like calcium sulfate may require heat to precipitate.
The tables below provides information on the variation of solubility of different substances (mostly inorganic compounds) in water with temperature, at one atmosphere pressure. Units of solubility are given in grams of substance per 100 millilitres of water (g/100 ml), unless shown otherwise. The substances are listed in alphabetical order.
The reaction is easily reversible, when NADH reduces another molecule and is re-oxidized to NAD +. This means the coenzyme can continuously cycle between the NAD + and NADH forms without being consumed. [5] In appearance, all forms of this coenzyme are white amorphous powders that are hygroscopic and highly water-soluble. [8]
Sodium pyruvate is a salt of the conjugate anion form of pyruvic acid, known as pyruvate. It is commonly added to cell culture media as an additional source of energy, but may also have protective effects against hydrogen peroxide. This was reported by Giandomenico et al. [1] and has been confirmed by several independent groups.
The production of lactate is beneficial for NAD + regeneration (pyruvate is reduced to lactate while NADH is oxidized to NAD +), which is used up in oxidation of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate during production of pyruvate from glucose, and this ensures that energy production is maintained and exercise can continue.
In enzymology, a pyruvate synthase (EC 1.2.7.1) is an enzyme that catalyzes the interconversion of pyruvate and acetyl-CoA. It is also called pyruvate:ferredoxin oxidoreductase (PFOR). The relevant equilibrium catalysed by PFOR is: pyruvate + CoA + oxidized ferredoxin acetyl-CoA + CO 2 + reduced ferredoxin
In enzymology, a pyruvate oxidase (EC 1.2.3.3) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction pyruvate + phosphate + O 2 ⇌ {\displaystyle \rightleftharpoons } acetyl phosphate + CO 2 + H 2 O 2 The 3 substrates of this enzyme are pyruvate , phosphate , and O 2 , whereas its 3 products are acetyl phosphate , CO 2 , and H 2 O 2 .
When an oxidizer (Ox) accepts a number z of electrons ( e −) to be converted in its reduced form (Red), the half-reaction is expressed as: Ox + z e − → Red. The reaction quotient (Q r) is the ratio of the chemical activity (a i) of the reduced form (the reductant, a Red) to the activity of the oxidized form (the oxidant, a ox).
