from a chemical perspective the words molecule and compound can be used interchangeably. True or False

Biology
1 answer:
Ratling [72]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

False

Explanation:

A molecule can be defined as a particle that comprises of two or more atoms of an element that are bound together by a chemical bond. Molecules are usually electrically neutral. An example of a molecule is O2 (oxygen molecule); it comprises of two atoms of oxygen

A compound can be defined as a substance that is made of two or more different chemical elements that are bound together by a chemical bond which could either be an ionic bond or a covalent bond. An example of a compound is NaCl which is table salt; NaCl is a compound that is made up of one sodium element (Na) and one chlorine element (Cl) bound together by ionic bonds.

Therefore, when atoms combine, they form molecules, while a compound is a molecule that comprises of atoms of different elements. So we can say that not all molecules are compounds, but all compounds are molecules, hence molecule and compound can't be used interchangeably.

Fastest neurons can send impulses at miles per hour
forsale [732]
The answer is 250 miles per hour.

To communicate, neurons send impulses to other neurons or muscle cells. Depending on the nature of information needed to be sent, some impulses are faster than the other. For example, if a person burns its hand, the information must be quickly sent to the central nervous system for quick reaction. Some impulses can achieve 250 miles per hour. But, for this, axon must be well insulated and very thick.
