Answer: Neon is a colorless gas at room temperature: Physical property

At room temperature, mercury is a liquid: Physical property

Apple slices turn brown when exposed to air: Chemical property

Phosphorus will ignite when exposed to air: Chemical property

Explanation:

Physical property is defined as the property of a substance which becomes evident during physical change in which there is alteration in shape, size etc. No new substance gets formed during physical change.

Example:  Neon is a colorless gas at room temperature

At room temperature, mercury is a liquid.

Chemical property is defined as the property of a substance which becomes evident during chemical change in which a change in chemical composition takes place. A new substance is formed in these reactions.

Example: Apple slices turn brown when exposed to air: It undergoes oxidation which is a chemical change

Phosphorus will ignite when exposed to air: It undergoes oxidation which is a chemical change

Answer:

a) Physical property

b) chemical property

c)  chemical property.

d) Physical property

Explanation:

  • The Physical property of a substance is the property that are exhibited by the substance without changing its fundamental identity at the molecular level.
  • It includes the mechanical properties, visual appearance, electrical properties and thermal properties. Such changes can easily be reverted.The chemical properties involve a change at the fundamental molecular level. It is non reversible and leads to the formation of new molecule.

a) Neon is a colorless gas at room temperature due to its physical property

b) apple slice turns brown due to oxidation in the air this happens due to chemical reaction and it is due to the chemical property of the substance present in apple.

c) Phosphorous when ignites on exposure to air forms a new substance which can't be revered back to phosphorous and has undergone a chemical change due to its chemical property.

d) At room temperature the mercury is liquid represents its physical property because it still remains mercury by its molecular composition.

Describe the electrical and chemical changes that lead to an action potential. Define myelin and discuss its effects.
solniwko [45]

Answer:

The outside of a neuron has more sodium ions while at resting state. When a electrical signal is going to pass through, the sodium channels open up first and the positive sodium ions rush inward making the inner side more positive. This is called action potential.

There is layer of fatty substances called as Myelin Sheath over the course of axons. It helps the electrical signal to be transmitted with a fast pace and efficiently over the course.

The specific heat of fat is roughly 1,700 J/(kgoC) whereas that for water is around 4200 J/(kgoC). A 0.63 kg solution of lipids
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

the mass of the lipid content, to the nearest hundredth of a kg, in this solution =0.46 kg

Explanation:

Total heat content of the fat = heat content of water +heat content of the lipids

Let it be Q

the Q= (mcΔT)_lipids + (mcΔT)_water

total mass of fat  M= 0.63 Kg

Q= heat supplied = 100 W in 5 minutes

ΔT= 20°C

c_lipid= 1700J/(kgoC)

c_water= 4200J/(kgoC)

then,

100\times5\times60= m(1700)20+(0.63-m)(4200)20

solving the above equation we get

m= 0.46 kg

the mass of the lipid content, to the nearest hundredth of a kg, in this solution =0.46 kg
