Acetaminophen (C8H9NO2) is the active ingredient in many nonprescription pain relievers. Each tablet contains 500 mg of acetamin

ophen, and a typical adult dose is two tablets every eight hours.
• Determine the molar mass of acetaminophen (show your work).
• Calculate the number of moles of acetaminophen in a single tablet (show your work).
• Calculate the number of moles of acetaminophen that an adult would have taken if she took three doses of acetaminophen in one day (show your work).

1) Molar mass C8H9NO2

Element    Atomic mass    # of atoms   mass
                       g/mol                                  g
C               12                         8               12*8 = 96
H                 1                         9                1*9 =    9
N               14                         1               14*1 = 14
O               16                        2                16*2 = 32

                              molar mass =   96 + 9 + 14 + 32 = 151 g/mol

2) Number of mols in a tablet

# of moles = mass / molar mass = 0.500 g / 151 g/mol = 0.003311 moles

3) 3 doses * 2 tablets * 0.003311 moles / tablet = 0.020 moles

Which scenario best exemplifies the way a signal is passed down an axon coated with myelin sheath?
goblinko [34]

Runners sprinting short distances in a relay race and handing off a baton scenario best exemplify the way a signal is passed down an axon coated with a myelin sheath.

Axons are long extensions of neurons (or nerve cells) involved in the transmission of nerve impulses away from the cell body. Each nerve cell has an axon that is over a foot long. A nerve cell communicates with another nerve cell by transmitting signals from the branches at the ends of the axon.

Each neuron in the brain has long cables that meander from the body of the cell. These cables, several times thinner than human hair, are called axons and are where electrical impulses leave neurons and are received by other neurons.

A 2.00 kg piece of lead at 40.0°C is placed in a very large quantity of water at 10.0°C,and thermal equilibrium is eventually re
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

Δ S = 26.2 J/K

Explanation:

The change in entropy can be calculated from the formula  -

Δ S = m Cp ln ( T₂ / T₁ )

Where ,

Δ S = change in entropy

m = mass  = 2.00 kg

Cp =specific heat of lead is 130 J / (kg ∙ K) .

T₂ = final temperature  10.0°C + 273 = 283 K

T₁ = initial temperature ,  40.0°C + 273 = 313 K

Applying the above formula ,

The change in entropy is calculated as ,

ΔS = m Cp ln ( T₂ / T₁ )  = (2.00 )( 130 ) ln( 283 K / 313 K )

ΔS = 26.2 J/K

What does a fluorine ion have in common with a neon and a sodium ion
DanielleElmas [232]
The atomic number (Z) of the 3 elements F, Ne, and Na, are 9, 10, and 11.

Explanation:

Now Z refers to the number of protons in the element's nucleus, and protons are POSITIVELY charged particles. So a fluoride ion, F−, has 10 electrons rather than 9 (why?), a neutral neon atom has 10 electrons, and a sodium ion, Na+, also has 10 electrons (why?).

So the 3 species are ISOELECTRONIC; they possess the same number of electrons. 

You should look at the Periodic Table to confirm the electron number. Elements are (usually) electrically neutral (sometimes they can be ionic if they have lost or gained electrons). If there are 10 positively charged protons in the nucleus, there are NECESSARILY 10 electrons associated with the NEUTRAL atom. I don't know WHY I am capitalizing certain WORDS.

You might ask why sodium will form a positive ion, Na+, whereas F forms a negative ion, F−. This again is a Periodic phenomenon, and explicable on the basis of the electronic structure that the Table formalizes.

Neutral metals tend to be electron-rich species, which have 1 or more electrons in a valence shell remote from the nuclear charge. On the other hand, neutral non-metals have valence electrons in incomplete shells, that do not effectively shield the nuclear charge. The demonstrable consequence is that metals lose electrons to form positive ions, whereas non-metals gain electrons to form negative ions.
