A compound that binds to a receptor but does not activate the neuron is known as an Antagonist.

A receptor is a large protein molecule on a neuron that gets activated when a ligand binds to it such as a drug or hormone, or when electrical impulses pass through it.

An antagonist is a drug or hormone that binds to receptor, but instead of activating the receptor, it blocks or dampens the activation of the neuron. Antagonist drugs are used to interfere with the normal function or operation of a protein receptor.

Depending on the nature of the antagonist or the receptor it's bound to, the effects of antagonists may be permanent or temporary.

Alyssa is trying to balance the following equation: Pb(OH)2 + 2H2SO4 =&gt; PbSO4 + 2H20 What number should be used to replace th
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

2 Pb(OH)2 + 2H2SO4 => 2 PbSO4 + 4 H20

Explanation:

Since there's no "?" shown in the equation, let's balance it and solve it entirely.

Pb(OH)2 + 2H2SO4 => PbSO4 + 2H20

1Pb + 10O + 6H + 2S ≠ 1Pb + 6O + 4H + 1S → it needs to be balanced.

To do this, let's start by looking at the elements that are only presnet once on each side:

On the products half, S is only present in PbSO4 → if we look at the reagents half, we can see it needs a "2" → then Pb is multiplied by 2 too → so Pb(OH)2 on the reagents half will also need a "2" → final count on O and H on the reagents side: 12O and 8H  → to balance it, you need 4 water molecules on the products side.
