A compound that binds to a receptor but does not activate the neuron is known as an Antagonist.
A receptor is a large protein molecule on a neuron that gets activated when a ligand binds to it such as a drug or hormone, or when electrical impulses pass through it.
An antagonist is a drug or hormone that binds to receptor, but instead of activating the receptor, it blocks or dampens the activation of the neuron. Antagonist drugs are used to interfere with the normal function or operation of a protein receptor.
Depending on the nature of the antagonist or the receptor it's bound to, the effects of antagonists may be permanent or temporary.

Distilled water is neutral, so there are no ions to allow the flow of electricity
Answer:
Option A. FeCl3
Explanation:
The following data were obtained from the question:
Mass of iron (Fe) = 6.25g
Mass of the compound formed = 18g
From the question, we were told that the compound formed contains chlorine. Therefore the mass of chlorine is obtained as follow
Mass of chlorine (Cl) = Mass of compound formed – Mass of iron.
Mass of chlorine (Cl) = 18 – 6.25
Mass of chlorine (Cl) = 11.75g
The compound therefore contains:
Iron (Fe) = 6.25g
Chlorine (Cl) = 11.75g
The empirical formula for the compound can be obtained by doing the following:
Step 1:
Divide by their molar mass
Fe = 6.25/56 = 0.112
Cl = 11.75/35.5 = 0.331
Step 2:
Divide by the smallest
Fe = 0.112/0.112 = 1
Cl = 0.331/0.112 = 3
The empirical formula for the compound is FeCl3
Explanation:
An acid is a substance that produces excess hydroxonium ions in solution.
An acid based on the pH scale is a substance that has a low pH. Acid lies within a range of 1-7 on the pH scale.
- A pH of 7 is for neutral compounds like water.
- A pH greater that 7 is for basic compounds.
- In order to raise the pH, we are driving at a substance becoming more neutral or basic.
This can be achieved by adding more base to the solution of the substance. When we add more base, hydroxyl ions will neutralize the excess hydroxonium ions and drag the pH towards that of neutrality.
Addition of more base can eventually make the substance basic.
