Name two hormones produced by the endocrine system and describe how they work with other organ systems to maintain homeostasis
Annette [7]
The 2 hormones are insulin & glucagon.

A hormone will only act on a part of the body it 'fits'. A hormone can be thought of as a key, and its target site ( i.e an organ) has specially shaped locks on the cell walls. 
If the hormone fits, then it will work.

The hormone can set off a cascade of other singling pathways in the cell to cause an immediate effect ( for instance, insulin signaling leads to a rapid uptake of glucose in muscle cells)

The endocrine system is a tightly regulated system that keeps the hormones and their effects at just the right level. One way this is achieved is through ' feedback loops'. The release of hormones is regulated by other hormones, proteins or neuronal signals.

The released hormone then has its effect on other organs. This effect on the organ feeds back to the original signal to control any further hormone release.

A 5.000 g mixture contains strontium nitrate and potassium bromide. Excess lead(II) nitrate solution is added to precipitate out
scZoUnD [109]

<u>Answer:</u> The mass percent of potassium bromide in the mixture is 9.996%

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}     .....(1)

<u>For lead (II) bromide:</u>

Given mass of lead (II) bromide = 0.7822 g

Molar mass of lead (II) bromide = 367 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of lead (II) bromide}=\frac{0.7822g}{367g/mol}=0.0021mol

  • The chemical equation for the reaction of lead (II) nitrate and potassium bromide follows:

2KBr+Pb(NO_3)_2\rightarrow PbBr_2+2KNO_3

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of lead (II) bromide is produced from 2 moles of potassium bromide

So, 0.0021 moles of lead (II) bromide will be produced from = \frac{2}{1}\times 0.0021=0.0042mol of potassium bromide

  • Now, calculating the mass of potassium bromide by using equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of KBr = 119 g/mol

Moles of KBr = 0.0042 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

0.0042mol=\frac{\text{Mass of KBr}}{119g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of KBr}=0.4998g

  • To calculate the percentage composition of KBr in the mixture, we use the equation:

\%\text{ composition of KBr}=\frac{\text{Mass of KBr}}{\text{Mass of mixture}}\times 100

Mass of mixture = 5.000 g

Mass of KBr = 0.4998 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\%\text{ composition of KBr}=\frac{0.4998g}{5.000g}\times 100=9.996\%

Hence, the percent by mass of KBr in the mixture is 9.996 %
