Answer : It helps to control the levels of alertness.

Explanation : Neurotransmitters are endogenous chemicals which enables neuro-transmission. It is a type of a chemical messenger which allows to transmit signals across a chemical synapse, such as a neuromuscular junction, from one neuron (nerve cell) to another "target" neuron, muscle cell, or gland cell. It helps to maintain the level of alertness in the body by maintaining the chemical synapse when required.

Norepinephrine (NE), also called noradrenaline (NA) or noradrenalin, is an organic chemical in the catecholamine family that functions in the brain and body as a hormone and neurotransmitter. The name "noradrenaline," derived from Latin roots meaning "at/alongside the kidneys," is more commonly used in the United Kingdom; in the United States, "norepinephrine," derived from Greek roots having that same meaning, is usually preferred. "Norepinephrine" is also the international nonproprietary name given to the drug.Regardless of which name is used for the substance itself, parts of the body that produce or are affected by it are referred to as noradrenergic.

What is the mass (in grams) of 9.79 × 1024 molecules of methanol (CH3OH)?

nevsk [136]

We will use this formlula: Mass in grams = Number of moles x Molecular mass of 1 mole.

Since, we know the avagadro number is 6.02 x 10²³, we only have two unknown values left which are the molecular mass of CH3OH and its mole.

Molecular Mass: C = 12, H= 1, O = 16, since we have C=12, H4 = 4, O = 16, we will add them up: 12 + 4 + 16 =32

We know that one mole of anything = 6.02 x 10²³.
So we will use this formula to find the mole of methanol: Number of moles = Number of molecules / Avagadro number

Number of moles of CH3OH = (9.79 x 10^24)/6.02 x 10²³) = 16.263 moles.

Now we know that the molecular mass = 32 and the mole is = 16.263.

Now we can find its mass by using this formula: Mass in grams = Number of moles x Molecular mass of 1 mole.

Mass in grams = 16.263 x 32 = 520g

Find the pH of a solution that has an H+ concentration of 2.5x10-3 M

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

The pH is 2, 60

Explanation:

The pH gives us an idea of the acidity or basicity of a solution. It is calculated as:

pH = -log (H +)= -log (2.5x10-3 )

pH=2, 60

Formation of magnesium chloride

Shkiper50 [21]

-Pure magnesium is commonly made by separating it from seawater. This process is known as electrolysis. The liquid magnesium formed is cooled into convenient blocks of metal known as ingots. The chlorine gas is recycled to form hydrochloric acid for the production of more magnesium chloride.
