The Blood-Brain Barrier (BBB) is a semipermeable membrane that separates blood and the brain. Which choices below would successf

ully cross the BBB without any help?

Answer:

water, carbon monoxide gas, Small lipid soluble substances

Explanation:

The BBB is a highly selective semi permeable membrane which prevents the solute in the blood from crossing or passing through the central nervous system of human brain.

It separates the blood from the brain.

In the context,

-- Water successfully crosses the BBB without any help. It can cross through diffusion.

-- carbon monoxide gas can cross BBB. Haemoglobin in blood has 200 times more affinity towards the carbon monoxide when it is compared with oxygen. This is why carbon monoxide poisoning affects the brain.

--- Small lipid soluble substances can also cross BBB without any help.

Chlorine has seven electrons in its valence shell. It accepts an electron to complete its octet and becomes a chlorine ion (Cl-)
KIM [24]
The correct answer here is B - when chlorine accepts an electron to complete its octet and becomes a chlorion ion it becomes an Anion. An anion is a negatively charged ion. Chloride ions are an important electrolyte within the body.

Calculate the ΔHrxn for the following
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

2 NO (g) → N2 (g) + O2 (g)

2 NOCl (g) → 2 NO (g) + Cl2 (g)

____________________________

2NOCl (g) ⟶ N2 (g) + O2 (g) + Cl2 (g)

ΔH = [90.3 kJ x 2 x -1] +  [-38.6 kJ x -1 x 2] = -103.4 kJ

The ΔH for the reaction is -103.4 kJ

What would ne the acceleration in a body moving wit uniform velocity and why​
meriva

Answer: The derivative of a constant term is always 0. So the acceleration of the body would be zero. Hence, the acceleration of a body moving with uniform velocity will always be zero.

Hope this helps :) :)

Use bond energies from Table 10.3 in the textbook to estimate the enthalpy change (ΔH) for the following reaction. C2H2(g)+H2(g)
Digiron [165]

Answer: =176.6kJmol^{-1}

Explanation:Bond energy of H-H is 436.4 kJ/mole

Bond energy of  C-H is 414 kJ/mol

Bond energy of C=C is 620 kJ/mol

Bond energy of C≡C is 835 kJ/mol

\Delta H= {\text {sum of bond energies of reactants}}-  {\text {sum of bond energies of products}}

\Delta H= {1B.E(C≡C)+2B.E(C-H) +1B.E(H-H)} - {1B.E(C=C)+4B.E(C-H)}

\Delta H= {1B.E(835kJmole^{-1})+2B.E(414kJmole^{-1}) +1B.E(436.4kJmole^{-1})} -  {1B.E(620kJmole^{-1})+4B.E(414kjmole^{-1})}

=176.6kJmol^{-1}
