Which of the following statements about steroid hormones is true?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Len [333]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

B. They bind to carrier proteins in order to be transported in the blood to

their target cells.

Explanation:

Steroid hormones are belongs to the class of chemical compound called steroid. Steroid hormones are majorly secreted by three glands - ovaries, testes and adrenal cortex.

Steroid hormones are released in the blood and are allowed to bind to the specific carrier proteins such as corticosteroid-binding globulin and albumin which helps them to carry to the target cells for the functioning.

The steroid hormone binds to receptor proteins in the target cell and not in the plasma membrane

Hence, the correct answer is "B. They bind to carrier proteins in order to be transported in the blood to  their target cells."

A student ran the following reaction in the laboratory at 671 K: 2NH3(g) N2(g) + 3H2(g) When she introduced 7.33×10-2 moles of N
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

Kc = 8.05x10⁻³

Explanation:

This is the equilibrium:

                 2NH₃(g)   ⇄     N₂(g)     +     3H₂(g)

Initially       0.0733

React         0.0733α          α/2                3/2α

Eq     0.0733 - 0.0733α    α/2                0.103

We introduced 0.0733 moles of ammonia, initially. So in the reaction "α" amount react, as the ratio is 2:1, and 2:3, we can know the moles that formed products.

Now we were told that in equilibrum we have a [H₂] of 0.103, so this data can help us to calculate α.

3/2α = 0.103

α = 0.103 . 2/3 ⇒ 0.0686

So, concentration in equilibrium are

NH₃ = 0.0733 - 0.0733 . 0.0686 = 0.0682

N₂ = 0.0686/2 = 0.0343

So this moles, are in a volume of 1L, so they are molar concentrations.

Let's make Kc expression:

Kc= [N₂] . [H₂]³ / [NH₃]²

Kc = 0.0343 . 0.103³ / 0.0682² = 8.05x10⁻³

How many grams of HF are needed to react with 3.0 moles of Sn?
Flauer [41]

Answer:

120g

Explanation:

Step 1:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction.

Sn + 2HF —> SnF2 + H2

Step 2:

Determination of the number of mole HF needed to react with 3 moles of Sn.

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of Sn and reacted with 2 moles of HF.

Therefore, 3 moles Sn will react with = 3 x 2 = 6 moles of HF.

Step 3:

Conversion of 6 moles of HF to grams.

Number of mole HF = 6 moles

Molar Mass of HF = 1 + 19 = 20g/mol

Mass of HF =..?

Mass = number of mole x molar Mass

Mass of HF = 6 x 20

Mass of HF = 120g

Therefore, 120g of HF is needed to react with 3 moles of Sn.
