Explain how your brain and sensory organs get information from the outside world

1 answer:

4 0

Your brain has about 100 billion neurons, all of which are interneurons. Each of these neurons may receive up to 10,000 messages from other neurons and may send messages to about 1,000 more. Every day, billions of nerve impulses travel through your nervous system from neuron to other neurons or body structures. The place where a neuron transfers an impulse to another structure is called a synapse. At the axon tips, electrical signals carried through the neuron change into a chemical form. This change allows the message to cross the gap. The message then continues in electrical from through the next neuron.

Answer: The balance of the reaction shifts toward the endothermic reaction.

Explanation:

An ENDOTHERMIC REACTION requires input of HEAT ENERGY to drive it FORWARD from reactants, unto completion of products.

So, on increasing the temperature (available heat) the REVERSIBLE REACTION favors the shifts towards the endothermic reaction

Carbon monoxide (CO) reacts with hydrogen (H2) to form methane (CH4) and water (H2O).

Artemon [7]

Answer:

5.9x10^-2 M

Explanation:

Step 1:

Data obtained from the question. This includes the following:

Concentration of CO, [CO] = 0.30 M

Concentration of H2, [H2] = 0.10 M

Concentration of H2O, [H2O] = 0.020 M

Equilibrium constant, K = 3.90

Concentration of CH4, [CH4] =..?

Step 2:

The balanced equation for the reaction. This is given below:

CO(g) + 3H2(g) <=> CH4(g) + H2O(g)

Step 3:

Determination of the concentration of CH4.

The expression for equilibrium constant of the above equation is given below:

K = [CH4] [H2O] / [CO] [H2]^3

3.9 = [CH4] x 0.02/ 0.3 x (0.1)^3

Cross multiply to express in linear form

[CH4] x 0.02= 3.9 x 0.3 x (0.1)^3

Divide both side by 0.02

[CH4] = 3.9 x 0.3 x (0.1)^3 /0.02

[CH4] = 5.9x10^-2 M

Therefore, the equilibrium concentration of CH4 is 5.9x10^-2 M

muminat

Answer:

Explanation:

The missing image is attached below.

The objective of this question is to draw the major product formed from the diagram attached below.

From the diagram attached, we will see the reaction of a tertiary alkyl halide together with a weak nucleophile (ch3ch2oh) undergoing a nucleophilic substitution (SN₁) mechanism to yield a racemic mixture(i.e., compound that is not optically active but contains an equal amount of dextrorotatory and levorotatory stereoisomers) as a product.
