What type of effects do prostaglandins produce on smooth muscles? List two examples.

1 answer:

3 0

First, they may produce direct and relatively short-lived effects, such as stimulation of the isolated uterus or relaxation of the isolated tracheal chain preparation.

Secondly, in doses too low to produce a direct effect, they may produce a long-term potentiation of the effects of other stimulants.

A compound made of two elements, iridium (Ir) and oxygen (O), was produced in a lab by heating iridium while exposed to air. The

natima [27]

1) Compund Ir (x) O(y)

2) Mass of iridium = mass of crucible and iridium - mass of crucible = 39.52 g - 38.26 g = 1.26 g

3) Mass of iridium oxide = mass of crucible and iridium oxide - mass of crucible = 39.73g - 38.26g = 1.47g

4) Mass of oxygen = mass of iridum oxide - mass of iridium = 1.47g - 1.26g = 0.21g

5) Convert grams to moles

moles of iridium = mass of iridium / molar mass of iridium = 1.26 g / 192.17 g/mol = 0.00656 moles

moles of oxygen = mass of oxygen / molar mass of oxygen = 0.21 g / 15.999 g/mol = 0.0131

6) Find the proportion of moles

Divide by the least of the number of moles, i.e. 0.00656

Ir: 0.00656 / 0.00656 = 1

O: 0.0131 / 0.00656 = 2

=> Empirical formula = Ir O2 (where 2 is the superscript for O)

Answer: Ir O2

A chemist uses hot hydrogen gas to convert chromium(III) oxide to

Darya [45]

Answer: 3.024 g grams of hydrogen are needed to convert 76 grams of chromium(III) oxide, $Cr_{2}O_{3}$

Explanation:

The reaction equation for given reaction is as follows.

$Cr_{2}O_{3} + 3H_{2} \rightarrow 2Cr + 3H_{2}O$

Here, 1 mole of $Cr_{2}O_{3}$ reacts with 3 moles of $H_{2}$ .

As mass of chromium (III) oxide is given as 76 g and molar mass of chromium (III) oxide $(Cr_{2}O_{3})$ is 152 g/mol.

Number of moles is the mass of substance divided by its molar mass. So, moles of $Cr_{2}O_{3}$ is calculated as follows.

$No. of moles = \frac{mass}{molar mass}\\= \frac{76 g}{152 g/mol}\\= 0.5 mol$

Now, moles of $H_{2}$ .given by 0.5 mol of $Cr_{2}O_{3}$ is calculated as follows.

$0.5 mol Cr_{2}O_{3} \times \frac{3 mol H_{2}}{1 mol Cr_{2}O_{3}}\\= 1.5 mol H_{2}$

As molar mass of $H_{2}$ is 2.016 g/mol. Therefore, mass of $H_{2}$ is calculated as follows.

$No. of moles = \frac{mass}{molar mass}\\1.5 mol = \frac{mass}{2.016 g/mol}\\mass = 3.024 g$

Thus, we can conclude that 3.024 g grams of hydrogen are needed to convert 76 grams of chromium(III) oxide, $Cr_{2}O_{3}$ .
