What are the similarities between the adrenal hormone cortisone and the synthetic corticoid prednisone?

Chemistry
1 answer:
vaieri [72.5K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Options a,b, c and d are correct

Explanation:

From the diagram attached in the picture below, They both have steroid nucleus since they have functional groups (such as the methyl and the ketone groups) that are spatially attached. It can also be deduced that both structures have three (3) ketone groups (CO/C=O), two (2) methyl groups (CH₃) and two (2) hydroxyl groups (OH). Hence, options a, b,c and d are correct.

However, cortisone has one (1) double bond while prednisone has two (2) double bonds.

For the generic equilibrium HA(aq) ⇌ H+(aq) + A−(aq), which of these statements is true? For the generic equilibrium , which of
timama [110]

<u>Answer:</u> The correct statement is if you add the soluble salt KA to a solution of HA that is at equilibrium, the pH would increase.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Common ion effect is defined as the effect which occurs on equilibrium when a common ion (an ion which is already present in the solution) is added to a solution. This effect generally decreases the solubility of a solute.

Equilibrium reaction of HA and KA follows the equation:

HA\rightleftharpoons H^{+}(aq.)+A^{-}(aq.)

KA\rightleftharpoons K^+(aq.)+A^{-}(aq.)

According to Le-Chateliers principle, if there is any change in the variables of the reaction, the equilibrium will shift in the direction in order to minimize the effect.

In the equilibrium reactions, A^- ion is getting increased on the product side, so the equilibrium will shift in the direction to minimize this effect, which is in the direction of HA.

Thus, the addition of KA will shift the equilibrium in the left direction.

Equilibrium constant depends on the temperature of the system. It does not have any effect on any change of pH.

pH is defined as the negative logarithm of hydrogen ions present in the solution

  • If the solution has high hydrogen ion concentration, then the pH will be low.
  • If the solution has low hydrogen ion concentration, then the pH will be high.

As, the equilibrium is shifting in the left direction, that means concentration of H^+ ions are getting decreases. This will increase the pH of the solution.

Hence, the correct statement is if you add the soluble salt KA to a solution of HA that is at equilibrium, the pH would increase.

Natural gas is stored in a spherical tank at a temperature of 13°C. At a given initial time, the pressure in the tank is 117 kPa
drek231 [11]

Answer:

1.  the absolute pressure in the tank before filling = 217 kPa

2. the absolute pressure in the tank after filling = 312 kPa

3. the ratio of the mass after filling M2 to that before filling M1 = 1.44

The correct relation is option c (\frac{M_{2} }{M_{1} } = \frac{P_{2} T_{1} }{P_{1} T_{2} })

Explanation:

To find  -

1. What is the absolute pressure in the tank before filling?

2. What is the absolute pressure in the tank after filling?

3. What is the ratio of the mass after filling M2 to that before filling M1 for this situation?

As we know that ,

Absolute pressure = Atmospheric pressure + Gage pressure

So,

Before filling the tank :

Given - Atmospheric pressure = 100 kPa ,  Gage pressure = 117 kPa

⇒Absolute pressure ( p1 )  = 100 + 117 = 217 kPa

Now,

After filling the tank :

Given - Atmospheric pressure = 100 kPa ,  Gage pressure = 212 kPa

⇒Absolute pressure (p2)  = 100 + 212= 312 kPa

Now,

As given, volume is the same before and after filling,

i.e. V_{1} = V_{2}

As we know that, P ∝ M

⇒ \frac{p_{1} }{p_{2} } = \frac{m_{1} }{m_{2} }

⇒\frac{m_{2} }{m_{1} } = \frac{p_{2} }{p_{1} }

⇒\frac{m_{2} }{m_{1} } = \frac{312 }{217 } = 1.4378 ≈ 1.44

Now, as we know that PV = nRT

As V is constant

⇒ P ∝ MT

⇒\frac{P}{T} ∝ M

⇒\frac{M_{2} }{M_{1} } = \frac{P_{2} T_{1} }{P_{1} T_{2} }

So, The correct relation is c option.

Answer:

Answer:A

Answer:AExplanation:

Answer:AExplanation:Molar Mass of glucose = (6×12)+(1×12)+(16×6)= 180g/mol

= 180g/molNumber of moles of Glucose = Mass/Molar Mass

= 180g/molNumber of moles of Glucose = Mass/Molar Mass= 5000/180

= 180g/molNumber of moles of Glucose = Mass/Molar Mass= 5000/180= 27.7778moles
