A compound that occupies a receptor but does not activate the neuron is known as a(n)?

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.

10. What effect does temperature have on molecular motion? Using this explanation, explain why both pressure and volume can decr
vovangra [49]

Answer:

If the temperature increases the molecular movement as well, and if it increases the same it will happen with the molecular movement.

Pressure, volume and temperature are three factors that are closely related since they increase the temperature, the pressure usually decreases due to the dispersion of the molecules that can be generated, so the volume also increases.

If the temperature drops, the material becomes denser, its molecules do not collide with each other, their volume and pressure increases.

Explanation:

The pressure is related to the molecular density and the movement that these molecules have.

The movement is regulated by temperature, since if it increases, the friction and collision of the molecules also.

On the other hand, the higher the volume, the less pressure there will be on the molecules, since they are more dispersed among themselves.

(in the opposite case that the volume decreases, the pressure increases)

Correct answer is <span>X = ΔH

Reason:
1) The graph of enthalpy Vs reaction coordinate  suggest the reaction is endothermic in nature. For endothermic reaction, energy if product is more than that of reactant. Hence,  option 1 i.e. </span><span>X = -ΔH cannot be correct.
2) Since the reaction is endothermic in nature, </span>energy if product is more than that of reactant. Hence,  option 2 i.e. X = ΔH is correct.
3) Activation energy is energy difference between Reactant (A) and transition state (B). However, as per option C, activation energy (A.E.) is energy difference between product (C) and transition state (B), which is incorrect.
