Biochemical process of light independent stage of photosynthesis

Image
In this stage carbon (IV) dioxide from atmosphere is captured and modified by addition of hydrogen to form carbohydrates and other organic compounds (amino acids and lipids). Carbon (IV) dioxide combines with ribulose-1, 5-bisphosphate to form unstable six carbons sugar which eventually breaks down to two (2) molecules of glycerate-3-phospahte, check it here; Two molecules of glycerate-3-phospate are phosphorylated by ATP to form two (2) molecules of glycerate disphosphate, NADPH catalyzes them, reducing them to two molecules glyceraladehyde-3-phospate. One molecule of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate is quickly converted to glucose, amino acids, lipids and other carbohydrates while the other molecule is utilized in the synthesis of ribulose-1,5-bisphospahte. This process is as follow;   In this process, first stable molecule is glycerate-3-phosphate . Energy carriers (ATP and NADPH) are used to reduce glycerate-3-phosphate   to form   12 molecules glycer

Lab report for Chemistry(Reaction between Crystal Violet and Sodium Hydroxide)

Image
Write chemistry a lab report for a reaction between Crystal violet and Sodium hydroxide when the following are provided: 0.005M Sodium hydroxide, 6.75 X 10 -6 M crystal violet for first run of the experiment. In the second run, replace 0.005M sodium hydroxide with 0.01M sodium hydroxide. Use the questions given below to guide you write a good report.  Which function A t versus time gives the most linear graph (-A, -ln A, 1/A)? The result for this experiment was ln(A). The order of reaction of crystal violet is (0, 1, 2): y=1, y=0.0015x – 0.2195. The experimental values for pseudo rate constants (include significant figures and units).   Results:   K’ = -0.0015, K” = -0.003 (Include graphs to illustrate your answers) y=-0.003x – 0.813, rate of two pseudo constants k”/k’ = (-0.003/-0.0015) = 2. The order of reaction in sodium hydroxide is (0, 1, 2) x=1. Calculate the value of true rate constant, K, from the experimental value for K’, (include your cal
