Respiration releases energy in the form of ATP Respiration in the presence of O_(2) is called Aerobic respiration.

The formation of the oxide ion O_(g)^(2-) requires first an exothermic and then an endothermic step as shown below: O_(g)+e^(-) rarr O_(g)^(-) , DeltaH=-142 kJ mol^(-1) O(g)+e rarr O_(g)^(2-) , DeltaH=844kJ mol^(-1) This is because:

The following data were obtained during the first order thermal decomposition of N_(2)O_(5) (g) at constant volume : 2N_(2) O_(5)(g)to 2N_(2)O_(4)(g) +O_(2)(g) Calculate the rate constnat.

Given below is a list of different steps (i-vi) involved in respiration. (i) Utilisation of O_(2) by the cells for cataolic reactions. (ii) Transport of gases by the blood. (iii) Pulmonary ventilation by which atmospheric air is drawn in and CO_(2) is released out. (iv) Release of resultant CO_(2) . (v) Diffusion of O_(2) and CO_(2) between blood and tissues. (vi) Diffusion of gases ( O_(2) and CO_(2) ) across alveolar tissues. Select an option which has correct sequence of all the steps.
