The sodium-potassium pump (NaK) is very important for the function of the most cellular process in the body, It's responsible for the movement of the K ions into the cell and the movement of the Na ions outside the cell at the same time.
It's important for excitable cells such as a nerve cell, the pump helps it with transmitting pluses. It also important in controls cardiac contractions and control blood pressure. It plays an important role in maintaining the sodium and potassium balance in the body in the kidneys.So the Cell function will be affected badly if there was no sodium-potassium pump.

The last column of the periodic table contains the noble gases, elements that do not easily form chemical bonds. Why don’t these

netineya [11]

We call these reactive elements, becausethese atoms really like to follow the buddysystem and form bonds with other atoms.Noble gases, however, don't have thisproblem. Their outer shells are filled to the max, so they don't need to bond or react with any other atoms.

For the reaction N2(g) + 2H2(g) → N2H4(l), if the percent yield for this reaction is 100.0%, what is the actual mass of hydrazin

barxatty [35]

Answer:

53.6 g of N₂H₄

Explanation:

The begining is in the reaction:

N₂(g) + 2H₂(g) → N₂H₄(l)

We determine the moles of each reactant:

59.20 g / 28.01 g/mol = 2.11 moles of nitrogen

6.750 g / 2.016 g/mol = 3.35 moles of H₂

1 mol of N₂ react to 2 moles of H₂

Our 2.11 moles of N₂ may react to (2.11 . 2) /1 = 4.22 moles of H₂, but we only have 3.35 moles. The hydrogen is the limiting reactant.

2 moles of H₂ produce at 100 % yield, 1 mol of hydrazine

Then, 3.35 moles, may produce (3.35 . 1)/2 = 1.67 moles of N₂H₄

Let's convert the moles to mass:

1.67 mol . 32.05 g/mol = 53.6 g
