Answer:

hydrogen chloride (HC)- insoluble in hexane

hydrogen sulfide (H2S)- insoluble in hexane

water (H2O)- insoluble in hexane

propane (CH3CH2CH3)- soluble in hexane

Explanation:

Generally, it is a principle in chemistry that polar solvents dissolve polar substances while nonpolar solvents dissolve nonpolar substances.

This is because, dissolution of a substance in another substance depends on the kind of intermolecular interaction that is possible between the two substances. Hence, ionic substance dissolve in polar solvents due to dipole interactions and nonpolar substances dissolve in nonpolar solvents due to Vanderwaals interaction between the solute and solvent.

Hydrogen chloride, hydrogen sulphide and water are ionic substances hence they can not dissolve in hexane which is a nonpolar substance. However, propane is a nonpolar solvent hence it dissolves in hexane.

Which type of acetylcholine receptor is present on postganglionic neurons
Sonja [21]

Answer:

Mescarinic and Nicotinic

Explanation:

Postganglionic fibers can be present in both sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions, their main difference resides in how in the sympathetic division the postganglionic fibers are adrenergic and use norepinephrine (noradrenalin) as a neurotransmitter, in the parasympathetic division, on the other hand, fibers are cholinergic and use acetylcholine as a neurotransmitter, the<em> postganglionic neurons of sweat glands release acetylcholine for the activation of muscarinic receptors, another kind of receptor for acetylcholine are nicotinic receptors </em>that act as transmembrane sodium/potassium channels, while muscarinic receptors need to act through intracellular proteins.

Of the below gases, which would deviate most from ideal gas behavior? CO O2 NH3 SF4
Vlad [161]

Answer:

For gases such as hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, helium, or neon, deviations from the ideal gas law are less than 0.1 percent at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. Other gases, such as carbon dioxide or ammonia, have stronger intermolecular forces and consequently greater deviation from ideality.
