Answer: Sensory adaptation refers to a reduction in sensitivity to a stimulus after constant exposure to it. While sensory adaptation reduces our awareness of a constant stimulus, it helps free up our attention and resources to attend to other stimuli in the environment around us.

Answer:

sensory adaptation: People do not experience perceptions of external stimuli such as noise, touch, smell and other senses. They become used to the sensory stimulus because of continuous exposure

"A crosslinked copolymer consists of 57 wt% ethylene (C2H4) repeat units and 43 wt% propylene (C3H6) repeat units. Determine the

ch4aika [34]

Explanation:

Percentage ethylene by weight = 57%

Percentage propylene by weight = 43%

Suppose in 100 grams of polymer:

Mass of ethylene = 57 g

Mass of propylene = 43 g

Moles of ethylene = $\frac{57 g}{28 g/mol}=2.036 mol$

Moles of propylene = $\frac{43g}{42g/mol}=1.024 mol$

1 mole = $N_A =6.022\times 10^{23}$ molecules/ atoms

Units of ethylene = $2.036 mol\times N_A$

Units of propylene = $1.024 mol\times N_A$

a) Fraction of ethylene units:

$=\frac{2.036 mol\times N_A}{2.306 mol\times N_A+1.024 mol\times N_A}=\frac{509}{765}$

b ) Fraction of propylene units:

$=\frac{1.024mol\times N_A}{2.306 mol\times N_A+1.024 mol\times N_A}=\frac{256}{765}$

Complete question:

Write the condensed formula from left to right, starting with (CH3)x where x is a number.

See attached image for the structure formula of the compound

Answer:

(CH₃)₂CHC(CH₃)₃ named as 2,2,3-Trimethylbutane

Explanation:

If we number the longest chain of the carbon starting from the left, we will observe that there are four carbons in the straight chain as shown in the image.

Starting from first carbon from the left of the carbon chain, at carbon number number 2, there two alkyl group, that is two methyl (CH3 is two). Also at carbon number 3, there are three alkyl group, that is three methyl (CH3 is three).

The condensed formula will be written as;

(CH₃)₂CHC(CH₃)₃

This compound is named as 2,2,3-Trimethylbutane, an isomer of Heptane
