Using the half-reaction method discussed in class, write a balanced carbonaceous oxidation half-reaction for alanine, C3H₂O₂NH₂, normalized to 1 mol alanine. Then, balance your electron donor half-reaction with the electron acceptor half-reaction for oxygen writing a balanced overall redox reaction for the aerobic oxidation of alanine (normalized to 1 moll alanine). Using the oxidation half-reaction you generated in Problem 1, balance your electron donor half-reaction with the electron acceptor half-reaction for the transformation of nitrate to nitrogen gas, N₂. Write a balanced overall redox reaction for the anoxic oxidation of alanine and concurrent denitrification of nitrate (normalized to 1 moll alanine).
