Match the cofactors below with their roles in the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex reaction.

Cofactors:
A. Coenzyme A (CoA-SH)
B. NAD+
C. Thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP)
D. FAD
E. Lipoic acid in oxidized form

Roles:
Attacks and attaches to the central carbon in pyruvate.
Oxidizes FADH2.
Accepts the acetyl group from reduced lipoic acid.
Oxidizes the reduced form of lipoic acid.
Initial electron acceptor in oxidation of pyruvate.

Modern pennies are composed of zinc coated with copper. a student determines the mass of a penny to be 2.482 g and then makes several scratches in the copper coaling (to expose the underlying zinc). the student puts the scratched penny in hydrochloric acid, where the following reaction occurs between the zinc and the hcl (the copper remains undissolved): zn(s) + 2 hcl(aq) → h2(g) + zncl(aq)the student collects the hydrogen produced over water at 25 °c. the collected gas occupies a volume of 0.899 l at a total pressure of 79 j mmhg. calculate the percent zinc (by mass) in the penny. (assume that all the zn in the penny dissolves.)
