In contrast to an inhibitory transmitter, an excitatory transmitter encourages the development of an electrical signal known as an action potential in the receiving neuron.
Depolarization is brought on by excitatory neurotransmitters (decrease in membrane potential). Hyperpolarization is brought on by inhibitory neurotransmitters (increase in membrane potential).
Neurotransmitters fall into two categories: excitatory and inhibitory. While inhibitory neurotransmitters work to stop an action potential, excitatory neurotransmitters function to activate receptors on the postsynaptic membrane and enhance the effects of the action potential.
While inhibitory neurons release neurotransmitters that prevent action potential firing, excitatory neurons release neurotransmitters that cause an action potential to occur in the postsynaptic neuron.

Answer:
Rb+
Explanation:
Since they are telling us that the equivalence point was reached after 17.0 mL of 2.5 M HCl were added , we can calculate the number of moles of HCl which neutralized our unknown hydroxide.
Now all the choices for the metal cation are monovalent, therefore the general formula for our unknown is XOH and we know the reaction is 1 equivalent acid to 1 equivalent base. Thus we have the number of moles, n, of XOH and from the relation n = M/MW we can calculate the molecular weight of XOH.
Thus our calculations are:
V = 17.0 mL x 1 L / 1000 mL = 0.017 L
2.5 M HCl x 0.017 L = 2.5 mol/ L x 0.017 L = 0.0425 mol
0.0425 mol = 4.36 g/ MW XOH
MW of XOH = (atomic weight of X + 16 + 1)
so solving the above equation we get:
0.0425 = 4.36 / (X + 17 )
0.7225 +0.0425X = 4.36
0.0425X = 4.36 -0.7225 = 3.6375
X = 3.6375/0.0425 = 85.59
The unknown alkali is Rb which has an atomic weight of 85.47 g/mol
The number of calories that are required to change the temperature of 2.18 g of water from 15.3 c to 69.5 c is <u>118.16 cal</u>
<u><em> calculation</em></u>
- Heat in calories = MCΔ T where,
- M(mass)= 2.18 g
- C(specific heat capacity)= 1.00 cal/g/c
- ΔT( change in temperature)= 69.5- 15.3 =54.2 c
heat is therefore= 2.18 g x 1.00 cal/g/c x 54.2 c=118.16 cal
Answer:
First of all, the equation is typed wrong so it can easily be misinterpreted
Ethane (CH4) + Oxygen gas (O2) would give us Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and WATER (H2O)
CH4 + 2O2 -----> CO2 + 2H2O
And this is a combustion reaction since we have oxygen as a reactant and carbon dioxide and water as products.
