In the voltage-gated channels, the stimuli is a change in the voltage across the membrane.

In mechanically gated channels the stimuli is a mechanical stress.

In ligand-gated channels the stimuli is the binding of a ligand:ion or molecule that binds to a metal atom.

A 1.00 liter container holds a mixture of 0.52 mg of He and 2.05 mg of Ne at 25oC. Determine the partial pressures of He and Ne
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

pHe = 3.2 × 10⁻³ atm

pNe = 2.5 × 10⁻³ atm

P = 5.7 × 10⁻³ atm

Explanation:

Given data

Volume = 1.00 L

Temperature = 25°C + 273 = 298 K

mHe = 0.52 mg = 0.52 × 10⁻³ g

mNe = 2.05 mg = 2.05 × 10⁻³ g

The molar mass of He is 4.00 g/mol. The moles of He are:

0.52 × 10⁻³ g × (1 mol / 4.00 g) = 1.3 × 10⁻⁴ mol

We can find the partial pressure of He using the ideal gas equation.

P × V = n × R × T

P × 1.00 L = 1.3 × 10⁻⁴ mol × (0.082 atm.L/mol.K) × 298 K

P = 3.2 × 10⁻³ atm

The molar mass of Ne is 20.18 g/mol. The moles of Ne are:

2.05 × 10⁻³ g × (1 mol / 20.18 g) = 1.02 × 10⁻⁴ mol

We can find the partial pressure of Ne using the ideal gas equation.

P × V = n × R × T

P × 1.00 L = 1.02 × 10⁻⁴ mol × (0.082 atm.L/mol.K) × 298 K

P = 2.5 × 10⁻³ atm

The total pressure is the sum of the partial pressures.

P = 3.2 × 10⁻³ atm + 2.5 × 10⁻³ atm = 5.7 × 10⁻³ atm

Plz someone help, really struggling
frez [133]

Answer:

22.9 Liters CO(g) needed

Explanation:

2CO(g)     +   O₂(g)    =>    2CO₂(g)

? Liters          32.65g

                 = 32.65g/32g/mol

                 =   1.02 moles O₂

Rxn ratio for CO to O₂ = 2 mole CO(g) to 1 mole O₂(g)

∴moles CO(g) needed = 2 x 1.02 moles CO(g) = 2.04 moles CO(g)

Conditions of standard equation* is STP (0°C & 1atm) => 1 mole any gas occupies 22.4 Liters.

∴Volume of CO(g) = 1.02mole x 22.4Liters/mole = 22.9 Liters CO(g) needed

___________________

*Standard Equation => molecular rxn balanced to smallest whole number ratio coefficients is assumed to be at STP conditions (0°C & 1atm).

Explain the difference between an endothermic and an exothermic reaction using the concepts of potential energy, stability, and
kakasveta [241]
An Exothermic reaction releases energy into the surroundings and so the products have more potential energy then the reactants. The enthalpy change is a negative value. Whereas, an endothermic reaction involves the absorption of energy into the system and so the reactants have more potential energy than the products. The enthalpy change is a positive value. This is clearly represented in energy profile diagrams.
