The nerve cells

Explanation – Ions play a key role in conduction of signals from one neuron to another. Potassium, sodium and chloride ions are very important for the communication between the nerve cells. Ions helps in maintaining the potential across the membrane of the cell.

The resting potential of the membrane is due to the difference in concentration of the ions. Ion channels needs to be activated or turned on to allow in or out of the ions across the membrane.

Most adult humans consume about 2000 cal of food energy each day. What might happen to the energy firm this food?

kirill115 [55]

Answer:

The energy which is taken by consuming food to perform different functions such as movement, exercise, breathing and thinking etc.

Explanation:

The energy from the food is released in the process of respiration. In respiration, energy is released in the form of ATP due to the breakdown of glucose molecules in the mitochondria of the cell. This energy is used by the body in different activities.

What is an acid?<br> What is the ph level of an acid?

Stels [109]

Answer:

• An acid is an electrolyte that hydrolyses in water to release hydrogen ions.

${ \rm{HA _{(aq)} \: \: {}^{ \dashrightarrow} _{ \dashleftarrow} \: \: H {}^{ + } _{(aq)} +A {}^{ - } _{(aq)}}} \\$

• pH level of an acid;

Strong acid → 0 - 3.8
Weak Acid → 4.0 - 6.7

5. Some undiluted acids are more corrosive when diluted

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

The correct answer is : due to the hydrogen ions reacts and release high amount of energy with the strong acid.

Explanation:

Diluted acids are more corrosive then undiluted due to the presence of more H+ ions than the undiluted acids. The More the H+ ions are added the more corrosive the acid is.

When water is mixed with strong acid the hydrogen ions reacts with acid ions and a exothermic reaction takes place that release high amount of energy which boils violently, to avoid any accident it is advised to lab workers to wipe if any splash self before washing.

Thus, the correct answer is : due to the hydrogen ions reacts and release high amount of energy with the strong acid.
