Answer: The density of the material is 2.66 g/mL and it is likely this is made of Aluminum
Explanation:
The first step to know the material of the chunk of metal is to calculate its density. The general formula for density is P (density) = 
. Moreover, in this case, it is known the mass is 37.28 g, but the volume is not directly provided. However, we know the water in the graduated cylinder had a volume of 20.0 mL and this increased to 34.0 mL when the chunk of metal is added, this means the volume of the metal is 14 mL (34.0 mL - 20.0 mL = 14 mL). Now let's calculate the density:
This means the density of this metal is 2.66 g/mL, which can be rounded as 2. 7 g/mL, and according to the chart, this is the density of aluminum. Therefore, this material of this chunk is aluminum.
The balanced equation for the given reaction:
C₆H₁₂O₆ (glucose) + 6O₂→ 6CO₂ + 6H₂O
So in the balanced equation the coefficients before glucose, oxygen, water and carbon dioxide are 1, 6, 6 and 6 respectively.
Therefore, the sum of the coefficients in the balanced equation
= 1 + 6 + 6 + 6
= 19
The correct answer is 19.
Cyclic nucleotides cAMP and cGMP are part of almost all major cellular signaling pathways. Phosphodiesterases (PDEs) are enzymes that regulate the intracellular levels of cAMP and cGMP. Protein kinase A or cAMP-dependent protein kinase mediates most cAMP effects in the cell. Over the last 25 years, various components of this group of molecules have been involved in human diseases, both genetic and acquired. Lately, the PDEs attract more attention. The pharmacological exploitation of the PDE’s ability to regulate cGMP and cAMP, and through them, a variety of signaling pathways, has led to a number of new drugs for diverse applications from the treatment of erectile dysfunction to heart failure, asthma, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. We present the abstracts (available online) and selected articles from the proceedings of a meeting that took place at the National Institutes of Health (NIH), Bethesda, MD, June 8–10, 2011.
