Answer:

Contributes to the membrane potential.

Explanation:

Sodium-potassium pump: In cellular physiology, a protein which is identified in many cells that helping in to maintain the higher concentration of potassium ions inside than that is in the surrounding medium and maintain the lower concentration of sodium ions inside than that of the surrounding medium.

This unbalanced charge transfer contributes in the separation of charge across the cell membrane. Sodium-potassium pump is known for important contributor to action potential which is produce by nerve cells.

4. The volume of a sample of a gas at STP is 200.0 ml. If the pressure is increased to 4.00 atmospheres (temperature constant),
Elina [12.6K]

Answer : The value of new volume is, 50.0 mL

Explanation :

Boyle's Law : It is defined as the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles.

P\propto \frac{1}{V}

or,

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

where,

P_1 = initial pressure at STP = 1 atm

P_2 = final pressure =  4.00  atm

V_1 = initial volume at STP = 200.0 mL

V_2 = final volume = ?

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

1atm\times 200.0mL=4.00atm\times V_2

V_2=50.0mL

Therefore, the value of new volume is, 50.0 mL

This question deals with waste disposal in the Solutions and Spectroscopy experiment. What should be done to waste solutions con
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

b. It should be dumped in a beaker labeled "waste copper" on one's bench during the experiment.

d. It should be disposed of in the bottle for waste copper ion when work is completed.

Explanation:

Solutions containing copper ion should never be disposed of by dumping them in a sink or in common trash cans, because this will cause pollution in rivers, lakes and seas, being a contaminating agent to both human beings and animals. They should be placed in appropriate compatible containers that can be hermetically sealed. The sealed containers must be labeled with the name and class of hazardous substance they contain and the date they were generated.

It never should be returned to the bottle containing the solution, since it can contaminate the solution of the bottle.

In the Solutions and Spectroscopy experiments there is always wastes.

The fuel used to power the booster rockets on
Effectus [21]

Answer:

746 moles of H2O are been produced from 373 moles of Al.

Explanation:

For every 3 moles of aluminum, you get 6 moles of H2O (double). Therefore, every 373 moles of Al, you will get double as well, that is 746 m.
