The Standard Reduction Potentials (E'°)for the Following Half Reactions Are \rightarrow

Question 17

Multiple Choice

The standard reduction potentials (E'°) for the following half reactions are given.
Fumarate + 2H+ + 2e- \rightarrow succinate E'° = +0.031 V
FAD + 2H+ + 2e- \rightarrow FADH2 E'° = -0.219 V
If you mixed succinate,fumarate,FAD,and FADH2 together,all at l M concentrations and in the presence of succinate dehydrogenase,which of the following would happen initially?


A) Fumarate and succinate would become oxidized;FAD and FADH2 would become reduced.
B) Fumarate would become reduced;FADH2 would become oxidized.
C) No reaction would occur because all reactants and products are already at their standard concentrations.
D) Succinate would become oxidized;FAD would become reduced.
E) Succinate would become oxidized;FADH2 would be unchanged because it is a cofactor.
