By which mechanism would a steroid molecule diffuse into the cell?

Chemistry
1 answer:
LUCKY_DIMON [66]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: Directly through the phospholipid membrane

Explanation:

The cell membrane consist of a phospholipid bilayers structure. In the interior of the membrane, the phospholipid tail are hydrophobic, which makes the cell membrane to be selectively permeable, it is permeable to non polar molecules and impermeable to polar molecules.

Because Steroids are fat soluble, non polar compounds, they can diffuse directly through the hydrophobic, non polar core of the phospholipid bilayer without the use of carrier proteins.

A sample of gas at 1.10 atm has a volume of 326 mL. What is the new volume if the pressure is changed to 1.90 atm?
Brut [27]

Answer

For this we use ideal gas equation which is:

P1V1 = P2V2

P1 = 1.10 atm

V1 = 326 ml

P2 = 1.90

V2 = ?

By rearranging the ideal gas equation:

V2 =  P1V1 ÷ P2

V2 = 1.10 × 326 ÷1.90

V2 = 358.6 ÷ 1.90

V2 = 188.7 ml

Why bromine is a ring deactivator as it is ortho-Para directing group??
Anettt [7]

Answer:

here you go

Explanation:

Halogens are very electronegative. This means that inductively they are electron withdrawing. However, because of their ability to donate a lone pair of electrons in resonance forms, they are activators and ortho/para directing. Electron withdrawing groups are meta directors and they are deactivators.
