Chapter 27, Problem 14P

Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

Calculate the number of moles of NADH + H+ generated during following conversion if we start with one mole.

$\text{Glucose }\stackrel{}{\to }\text{Acetyl CoA}$

Concept Introduction:

The process of conversion of glucose to pyruvate is known as glycolysis.

The link reaction between glycolysis and citric acid cycle is conversion of pyruvate to acetyl CoA.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

Calculate the number of moles of NADH + H+ generated during following conversion if we start with one mole.

$\text{Glucose }\stackrel{}{\to }\text{Lactate}$

Concept Introduction:

The process of conversion of glucose to pyruvate is known as glycolysis.

The anaerobic conditions convert pyruvate to lacate.
