Answer: It is a gas  

Explanation:

The most unique thing about nitric oxide being a neurotransmitter is that it is the only neurotransmitter which is in gaseous form.

Nitric oxide is small gaseous molecules which is synthesized by the de novo process in the neuronal tissue.

It can diffuse by plasma membrane.

It diffuses out of the postsynaptic neurons and acts on the neighboring neurons and presynaptic terminals to assist the generation of the Long Term potentiation.

The analysis of a compound containing K, P and O showed 55 % K, 15 % P and 30 % O, set up the simplest empirical formula of this
Leokris [45]

Answer:

Empirical formula is K₃PO₄.

Explanation:

Given data:

Percentage of K = 55%

Percentage of P = 15%

Percentage of O = 30%

Empirical formula = ?

Solution:

Number of gram atoms of K = 55 / 39.098 = 1.41

Number of gram atoms of P = 15 /30.974= 0.48

Number of gram atoms of O = 30 / 15.999 = 1.88

Atomic ratio:

             K                      :          P                   :         O

           1.41/0.48            :       0.48/0.48        :       1.88/0.48

               3                     :           1                    :            4

K : P : O = 3 : 1 : 4

Empirical formula is K₃PO₄.

If a particle has Z = 25 and 23 electrons, what is its charge?
Anton [14]

Answer:- The charge is +2.

Explanations:- Z stands for atomic number. The Z is given as 25 means the atomic number of the element is 25. It has 23 electrons. For a neutral atom the number of electrons is same as the atomic number. Since the number of electrons is less than atomic number, the atom must have lost the electrons.

Number of electrons lost = 25 - 23 = 2

If the element lost electrons then it has positive charge. As, the electrons are lost, the charge is +2.

How much energy is released when 65.8 g of water freezes
Delvig [45]

The amount of energy released is calculated by the product of heat of fusion and mass. The formula of amount energy released is given by: q= L\times m                (1)

Here,  

q is amount of energy released L is heat of fusion (334 J/g) m is mass of water Put all the given values in equation (1)

q= 334 J/g \times 65.8 g

q= 21977.2 Joules ≅ 21977 Joules

q= 21977 Joules

Thus, amount of energy released is 21977 Joules
