Textbook Question
Chapter 2, Problem 20P
A biochemical reaction takes place in a 1.00 ml solution of 0.0250 M phosphate buffer initially at pH = 7.20 (see Table 2.6 for pkas of phosphate species).
a. Are the concentrations of any of the four possible phosphate species negligible? If so, identify them and explain your answer.
b. During the reaction, 3.80 µmol of HCI are produced. Calculate the final pH of the reaction solution. Assume that the HCI is completely neutralized by the buffer.

1. During a feeder study, a small amount of [6-14C]glucose is added to aerobic yeast culture. Where would the 14C label
appear in oxaloacetate at the end of one full Krebs cycle? (In this sugar, C6 of glucose is labeled as 14C.) Take this
sugar through glycolysis, PDC, and the Krebs cycle until you learn where the label winds up, in oxaloacetate or
something else. For full credit, defend your answer by showing me at least the labeled structures of pyruvate,
acetyl-CoA, citrate, and all subsequently labeled structures until you get to either labeled oxaloacetate or
wherever the labels winds up. (10 pts)
