Explanation:

So many isotopes are present in nature that is the same elements having different structures or atomic weight which makes them different, although having the same name is because of the presence of changed number of neutrons in the nucleus.  

Like in the case of carbon and isotopes that are stable are two in number one is carbon 12 and the other is 13, 12 is the more abundantly found in nature. Proton’s number in the element we have here (i.e carbon) and electron’s number must be same all difference is brought up by neutrons.

Glucagon A) helps glucose enter cells. B) increases the metabolic rate. C) stimulates cells to store glucose as glycogen. D) rai
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

<em>D) raises blood glucose levels. </em>

Explanation:

Glucagon is a small polypeptide synthesized by cells. This 29 amino acid peptide hormone is synthesized by pancreas alpha cells and has a molecular weight of 3485 dalton

It has an opposite effect to insulin by increasing blood glucose levels since it increases phosphorylase activity through cyclic AMP, after binding to glucagon receptors coupled to protein G on hepatocytes.

It is a stress hormone. Stimulates catabolic processes and inhibits anabolic processes.

              The correct answer is D. raises blood glucose levels.

Determine the relative formula mass of glucose (C6H12O6) using the periodic table below.
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

D. 180.1 g/mol

Explanation:

Add up each of the masses of the elements in glucose and multiply them by the subscript number.

Carbon: 12.01 * 6 = 72.06

Hydrogen: 1.008 * 12 = 12.096

Oxygen: 16.00 * 6 = 96

72.06 + 12.096 + 96 = 180.156 g/mol ≈ 180.1 g/mol

*Molecular masses vary depending on which measurement / periodic table you use, so expect to be within a range, not exactly the same. My answer was closer to 180.2 g/mol, but it's still acceptable.

One mole of a metallic oxide reacts with one mole of hydrogen to produce two moles of the pure metal
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

The metallic oxide is Li₂O

Explanation:

Let the metallic oxide be M₂O

Thus;

M₂O + H₂ = 2M + H₂O

Molar mass of M₂O = (2x + 16)

We assume Molar mass of M to be x.

We are told that 5.00 g of the metallic oxide produces 2.32 g of the metal.

By proportion, we can write the following;

5g of M₂O × (1 mole of M₂O/(2x + 16)) × (2 moles of M/1 mole of M₂O) = 2.32 g of M × 1 mole of M/x g of M

This cancels out to give us;

10/(2x + 16) = 2.32/x

Cross multiply to get;

10x = 2.32(2x + 16)

10x = 4.64x + 37.12

10x - 4.64x = 37.12

5.36x = 37.12

x = 37.12/5.36

x = 6.925 g/mol

The metal with a molar mass closest to this value of x is Lithium which has a molar mass of 6.94 g/mol

Thus the metal is Lithium and as such the metallic oxide is Li₂O
