Why is cyanide lethal? What dose it do once inside the body?

Chemistry

OLga [1]3 years ago

In large doses it stops cells using oxygen causing these cells to die. So in a small amount it would not kill you. So lets say cyanide is inside the body it would kill off all the cells and your body would not be able to function causing death

it is like a tranquilizer, once in the blood or respiratory system, it is capable or damaging the cells surrounding it and causing your immune system to kill those cells and the healthy ones around it.

one it reaches the brain it could cause internal brain damage from inside the brain instead of outside. it will shrink the cells or may implode then because of the lack of oxygen and neural transition form the brain to the muscles causing paralysis or even death

Consider the following voltaic cell:(j) In which direction do anions within the salt bridge move to maintain charge neutrality?
aniked [119]

In order to maintain neutrality, the negatively charged ions in the salt bridge will migrate into the anodic half-cell. A similar (but reversed) situation is found in the cathodic cell.

<h3>What purpose does a salt bridge serve in an oxidation process?</h3>

Anions (negatively charged particles) are added to the solution of the oxidation half of the cell by the salt bridge, and cations (positively charged particles) are added to the solution of the reduction half of the reaction. 

<h3>What purpose does the salt bridge serve in a galvanic cell?</h3>

For instance, KCl, AgNO3, etc. In a galvanic cell, such as a voltaic cell or Daniel cell, salt bridges are typically used. A salt bridge's primary job is to assist in preserving the electrical neutrality of the internal circuit. Additionally, it aids in keeping the cell's response from reaching equilibrium.

DNA transcription-to-translation # 1 Homework Unanswered Due in 4 days Given the following sequence of the coding strand, writte
uysha [10]

Explanation:

Translation is the process by which a polypeptide is polymerized from genetic information.

Firstly we have to make a transcription from the coding DNA strand to a single RNA strand (mRNA). RNA pol reads from 5' to 3' of the template strand and nucleotides are added by complementarity ( Adenine with Uracil, Thymine with Adenine and Cytosine with Guanine, Guanine with Cytosine).

DNA:  5'-  CGTTATGTGGACTCTCTGGTATGACTCACCTTAT -3'

mRNA: 5'-GCAAUACACCUGAGAGACCAUACUGAGUGGAAUA -3'

mRNA goes to the ribosomes where translation takes place. The enzyme will read every three letters (codon) starting at the start codon sequence (TAC in DNA, AUG in mRNA). According to codons tRNA carrying the amino acids will place it (by complementary to their anticodon) and the enzyme will join it to the nascent polypeptide or protein.

In order to do this we need to look up the genetic code and assign the proper amino acids.

Unfortunately the given strand does not have a start codon TAC codifying for initial methionine.

I need the answers to this and to see if what I put is right so far
klemol [59]

1) B+3 is ok. The exercise already put B+3. What

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2) Ge is a neutral atom because it doesn't have any charge.

Germanium has 32 electrons and 32 protons because its atomic number is 32.

Be careful with that.

Neutral atoms have the same numbers of electrons and protons.

How many moles of S are in 35.4 g of (C3H5)2S?
alexandr402 [8]
<span>0.310 moles First, look up the atomic weights of the elements involved. Atomic weight carbon = 12.0107 Atomic weight hydrogen = 1.00794 Atomic weight sulfur = 32.065 Molar mass (C3H5)2S = 6 * 12.0107 + 10 * 1.00794 + 32.065 = 114.2086 g/mol Moles (C3H5)2S = 35.4 g / 114.2086 g/mol = 0.309959145 mol Since there's just one sulfur atom per (C3H5)2S molecule, the number of moles of sulfur will match the number of moles of (C3H5)2S which is 0.310 when rounded to 3 significant digits.</span>

Refer to the following illustration. How many hydrogen atoms could bond with oxygen?
WITCHER [35]
2. 

The reason why is because there are 2 available electron spots on the orbital for the oxygen atom. Hydrogen atoms have one proton and one electron, thus, in order to fill the oxygen atom orbital to a full outer shell, a maximum of 2 atoms could bond with the oxygen atoms. 

6 electrons (oxygen)+ 1 electron (hydrogen)+ 1 electron (hydrogen)= 8
