Alex Ar [27]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Mass of butane = 1.87 g

Explanation:

Form a balanced chemical equation for the reaction stated:

C₄H₁₀ + 13/2 O₂ → 4CO₂ + 5H₂O

Number of moles of CO₂

=  \frac{mass}{molar \: mass}

=  \frac{15}{12 + 2(16)}

= 0.34 \: mol

From the equation,

1 mol C₄H₁₀ : 4 mol CO₂

0.085 mol C₄H₁₀ : 0.34 mol CO₂

Mass of butane

= number \: of \: moles \times molar \: mass

= 0.085 \times (12 + 10(1))

= 1.87 \: g

belka [17]

Answer:

An ion channel, more specifically a calcium channel.

Explanation:

The electrical activity of the cells is regulated by ion channels. Calcium channels, also referred as the voltage-gated calcium channels constitute one group of a superfamily of ion channels. A change in voltage across the membrane or small molecules triggers calcium channels to open, allowing calcium to flow into the cell. Inside the cell, calcium acts as a second messenger, it binds to calcium sensitive proteins to induce different responses and support several functions such as muscle contraction, hormone and neurotransmitter secretion, gene regulation, activation of other ion channels, control of action potentials, cell survival, etc.
