Which blood glucose-lowering hormones is produced by the pancreatic islet cells

1 answer:

7 0

Insulin Basics: How Insulin Helps Control Blood Glucose Levels. Insulin and glucagon are hormones secreted by islet cells within the pancreas. They are both secreted in response to blood sugar levels, but in opposite fashion! Insulin is normally secreted by the beta cells (a type of islet cell) of the pancreas

A compound is found to contain 42.88 % carbon and 57.12 % oxygen by weight. To answer the questions, enter the elements in the o

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

The empirical formule is CO

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Suppose the mass of a compound is 100 grams

Suppose the compound contains:

42.88 % C = 42.88 grams C

57.12 % O = 57.12 grams O

Molar mass C = 12.01 g/mol

Molar mass O = 16.0 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate moles

Moles = mass / molar mass

Moles C = mass C / molar mass C

Moles C = 42.88 grams / 12.01 g/mol

Moles C = 3.57 moles

Moles O = 57.12 grams / 16.0 g/mol

Moles O = 3.57 moles

Step 3: Calculate the mol ratio

We divide by the smallest amount of moles

C: 3.57 moles / 3.57 moles = 1

O: 3.57 moles / 3.57 moles = 1

The empirical formule is CO

You find a compound composed only of element X and chlorine and you know that the compound is 13.10% X by mass. Each molecule of

8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

Explanation:

So, the formula for the compound should be:

$XCl_{6}$

Now we assume that we have 1 mol of substance, so we can make calculations to know the molar mass of element X, as follows:

$M_{Cl}=35.45g/mol\\$

So we have that 6 moles weight 212.7g, and we can make a rule of three to know the weight of compound X:

$212.7g\rightarrow 86.9\%\\x\rightarrow 13.1\%\\\\x=\frac{212.7g*13.1}{86.9} =32.06g$

As we used 1 mol, we know that the molar mass is 32.06g/mol

So the element has a molar mass of 32.06 g/mol and an oxidation state of +6, with this information, we can assure that the element X is sulfur, so the compound is $SCl_{6}$

Equation for questions 1-4:

Karolina [17]

Answer:

5.625 moles of oxygen, O₂.

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

4Al + 3O₂ —> 2Al₂O₃

From the balanced equation above,

4 moles of Al reacted with 3 moles of O₂.

Finally, we shall determine the number of mole of O₂ required to react with 7.5 moles of aluminum, Al. This can be obtained as illustrated below:

From the balanced equation above,

4 moles of Al reacted with 3 moles of O₂.

Therefore, 7.5 moles of Al will react with = (7.5 × 3)/4 = 5.625 moles of O₂.

Thus, 5.625 moles of O₂ is needed for the reaction.

Explain Rutherford Bohr model?

Liula [17]

Answer:

heya!!!

Explanation:

In atomic physics, the Rutherford–Bohr model or Bohr model, presented by Niels Bohr and Ernest Rutherford in 1913, is a system consisting of a small, dense nucleus surrounded by orbiting electrons—similar to the structure of the Solar System, but with attraction provided by electrostatic forces in place of gravity.
