Drugs interfere with the way neurons send, receive, and process signals via neurotransmitters. Some drugs, such as marijuana and heroin, can activate neurons because their chemical structure mimics that of a natural neurotransmitter in the body. This allows the drugs to attach onto and activate the neurons. Although these drugs mimic the brain’s own chemicals, they don’t activate neurons in the same way as a natural neurotransmitter, and they lead to abnormal messages being sent through the network.
Other drugs, such as amphetamine or cocaine, can cause the neurons to release abnormally large amounts of natural neurotransmitters or prevent the normal recycling of these brain chemicals by interfering with transporters. This too amplifies or disrupts the normal communication between neurons.
Answer:

Compound are substances which are formed by two or more different types of elements that are united chemically in fixed proportions. ... Some of the examples of elements are Iron, Copper, Gold, etc. A few examples of compounds are NaOH, NaCl, etc.
Answer:
0.106 mol (3s.f.)
Explanation:
To find the number of moles, divide the mass of glucose (in grams) by its Mr. Glucose has a chemical formula of C6H12O6. To find the Mr, add all the Ar of all the atoms in C6H12O6.
Ar of C= 12, Ar of H= 1, Mr of O= 16
These Ar values can be found on the periodic table.
Mr of glucose= 6(12)+ 12(1) + 6(16)= 180
Moles of glucose
= mass ÷ mr
= 19.1 ÷ 180
= 0.106 mol (3 s.f.)
Molarity is simply the ratio of the number of moles of a
substance over the total volume of the solution. Assuming that the addition of
0.850 moles does not change the overall volume of 1.70 L, therefore molarity is
simply:
Molarity = 0.850 moles / 1.70 L = 0.5 moles / L = 0.5 M
