g Multidrug resistance can make it difficult to treat cancer successfully with chemotherapy. What causes multidrug resistance in

alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

Chemotherapy drugs and other toxins are actively pumped out of cancer cells by transmembrane proteins.

Explanation:

Drugs inside the cell can be inactivated by oxidation and / or conjugation with glutathione, such as glutathione S-transferases, playing an important role in detoxification. However, conjugation is not enough for drug elimination. And this is where the GS-X pumps appear. Transporter proteins, such as Mrp protein, act as GS-X pumps. The PgP, Mrp and Bcrp proteins function as expulsion pumps, thus reducing the intracellular accumulation of drugs, causing resistance in cancer cells.

Given that naphthalene is insoluble in water and sublimes easily upon heating, describe two different methods by which you could

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Based on solubilities you can separate naphthalene and NaCl by adding the mixture to a volume of water. NaCl is highly soluble in water, so it will dissolve completely, while the insoluble naphthalen will remain solid. Next your filter the solution, washing the solid with pure water to eliminate all the NaCl from it. The NaCl will remain is solution, and you can obtain it by evaporating the water. The other method to separate naphthalene and NaCl is based on sublimation property of naphthalene: you can permit that naphthalene sublimes freely or use vacuum to accelerate the process. You use a closed vessel to catch all the gas, while the NaCl will remain solid.

A 0.435 g sample of a metal, M, reacts completely with sulfuric acid according to M ( s ) + H 2 SO 4 ( aq ) ⟶ MSO 4 ( aq ) + H 2

Tresset [83]

Answer: The molar mass of metal is 52.4 g/mol

Explanation:

To calculate the moles of hydrogen gas collected, we use the equation given by ideal gas which follows:

$PV=nRT$

where,

P = pressure of the hydrogen gas = Total pressure - vapor pressure of water = (756.0 - 23.8 ) torr = 732.2 torr

V = Volume of the gas = 201 mL = 0.201 L (Conversion factor: 1 L = 1000 mL)

T = Temperature of the gas = $25^oC=[25+273]K=298K$

R = Gas constant = $62.364\text{ L.mmHg }mol^{-1}K^{-1}$

n = number of moles of hydrogen gas = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$732.2torr\times 0.210L=n\times 62.364\text{ L. torr }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 298K\\\\n=\frac{732.2\times 0.210}{62.364\times 298}=0.0083mol$

The given chemical equation follows:

$M(s)+H_ 2SO_4(aq.)\rightarrow MSO_4(aq.)+H_2(g)$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of hydrogen gas is formed by 1 mole of metal

So, 0.0083 moles of hydrogen gas will be formed by = $\frac{1}{1}\times 0.0083=0.0083mol$ of metal

To calculate the molar mass of metal from given number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

Moles of metal = 0.0083 moles

Given mass of metal = 0.435 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.0083mol=\frac{0.435g}{\text{Molar mass of metal}}\\\\\text{Molar mass of metal}=\frac{0.435g}{0.0083mol}=52.4g/mol$

Hence, the molar mass of metal is 52.4 g/mol

The temperature at which a liquid becomes a solid is the:

Olenka [21]

The answer is "c" because solidification or freezing is the term used for the process in which a liquid becomes a solid. Freezing is an exothermic process that also is an example of a phase transition

How much iron is present in 7.59 g of iron(iii) oxide? answer in units of g?

Verdich [7]

You need the unit of g however you must convert to moles before you can use the mole ratio to find the moles of iron, you used the molar mass of iron to find the grams of iron. since F e 2 o 3
