Polarity refers to the pull of electrons. Some elements like Fluorine and Oxygen pull electrons closer to them in their bonds (electronegativity), meaning they don't share them equally. So if they pull them closer, there is polarity in the molecule because there's a pull of electrons between atoms.

Polar molecules are molecules are essentially have no molecular symmetry. 

Nonpolar molecules are molecules that have molecular symmetry.

Water is a very basic example of a polar molecule.

Fireworks, KNO3<br> Give only the names of the elements alphabetically, separating them with commas.
Alborosie
Answer : The  question is to write the elements alphabetically and seperating them with commas.

So in this case for your question of Fireworks , KNO_{3},

The answer will be K, N, O.

You have to just differentiate the elements and write them according to the alphabetical order.

What is the difference between viruses and bacteria? Write complete sentences?
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

While both can cause disease, viruses are not living organisms, whereas bacteria are. Viruses are only "active" within host cells which they need to reproduce, while bacteria are single-celled organisms that produce their own energy and can reproduce on their own. Bacteria serve many vital roles in nature outside of being infectious.

Hope this helped! :)

Gastric juice is made up of substances secreted from parietal cells, chief cells, and mucous-secreting cells. The cells secrete
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

The amount of energy required to transport hydrogen ions from a cell into the stomach is 37.26KJ/mol.

Explanation:

The free change for the process can be written in terms of its equilibrium constant as:

ΔG° = -RTInK_(eq)

where:

R= universal gas constant

T= temperature

K_eq= equilibrum constant for the process

Similarly, free energy change and cell potentia; are related to each other as follows;

ΔG= -nFE°

from above;

F = faraday's constant

n = number of electrons exchanged in the process; and  

E = standard cell potential

∴ The amount of energy required for transport of hydrogen ions from a cell into stomach lumen can be calculated as:

ΔG° = -RTInK_(eq)

where;

[texK_eq[/tex]=\frac{[H^+]_(cell)}{[H^+(stomach lumen)]}

For transport of ions to an internal pH of 7.4, the transport taking place can be given as:

H^+_{inside} ⇒ H^+_{outside}

Equilibrum constant for the transport is given as:

K_{eq}=\frac{[H^+]_{outside}}{[H^+]_{inside}}

=\frac{[H^+]_{cell}}{[H^+]_{stomach lumen}}

[H^+]_{cell}= 10⁻⁷⁴

=3.98 * 10⁻⁸M

[H^+]_{stomach lumen} = 10⁻²¹

=7.94 * 10⁻³M

Hence;

K_{eq}=\frac{[H^+]_{cell}}{[H^+]_{stomachlumen}}

=\frac{3.98*10^{-8}}{7.94*10{-3}}

= 5.012 × 10⁻⁶

Furthermore, free energy change for this reaction is related to the equilibrium concentration given as:

ΔG° = -RTInK_(eq)

If temperature T= 37° C ; in kelvin

=37° C + 273.15K

=310.15K; and

R-= 8.314 j/mol/k

substituting the values into the equation we have;

ΔG₁ = -(8.314J/mol/K)(310.15)TIn(5.0126*10^{-6})

= 31467.93Jmol⁻¹

≅ 31.47KJmol⁻¹

If the potential difference across the cell membrane= 60.0mV.

Energy required to cross the cell membrane will be:

ΔG₂ = -nFE°_{membrane}

ΔG₂ = -(1 mol)(96.5KJ/mol/V)(60*10^{-3})

= 5.79KJ

Therefore, for one mole of electron transfer across the membrane; the energy required is 5.79KJmol⁻¹

Now, we  can calculate the total amount of energyy required to transport H⁺ ions across the membrane:

Δ G_{total} = G_{1}+G_{2}

= (31.47+5.79) KJmol⁻¹

= 37.26KJmol⁻¹

We can therefore conclude that;

   The amount of energy required to transport ions from cell to stomach lumen is 37.26KJmol⁻¹
