1. Imagine that you need to take a medicine that the doctor has prescribed for you. Explain why scientists who developed that me

dicine would need to know whether or not the compound in that medicine is polar. How might a polar medicine behave differently as it dissolved in the body than a nonpolar medicine would? Answer in 1 to 2 paragraphs. (10 points) Think about how polar and nonpolar compounds might behave differently in the watery environment of your stomach or bloodstream.
If you could please write 2 paragraphs, I would give Branlyist. ​

Answer: The compound in medicines should be non polar.  

It is important for any drug to be able to dissolve itself through the cell membrane which consists of a lipid bi-layer, in order to diffuse in the body and circulate biologically, performing its function.

Non polar compounds are lipid soluble and therefore can dissolve in the lipid layers.

Polar compounds are water soluble and fail to cross the cell membrane.

Therefore scientists need to be sure of using compounds that are non polar in nature so they pass through the cell membrane and enter into the blood circulation of the body and perform its due function.

For the reaction, X + Y → A + B, ΔGo is –1324 kJ. Which one of the following statements is NOT valid concerning the reaction?
natima [27]

Answer:

c. The reaction will proceed rapidly from left to right.

Explanation:

The variation of the free Gibbs energy doesn't tell anything about the speed of reaction.

On the other hand, when ΔGo is negative: the reaction is spontaneous, thermodynamically favourable, and the products are more stable than the reactants

If 28 grams of N reacts completely with 12 grams of H2, then how many
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

Mass of NH₃ produced = 34 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of nitrogen = 28 g

Mass of Hydrogen = 12 g

Mass of NH₃ produced = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

N₂ +  3H₂    →   2NH₃

Moles of nitrogen:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 28 g/ 28 g/mol

Number of moles = 1 mol

Moles of hydrogen:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 12 g/ 2 g/mol

Number of moles = 6 mol

Now we will compare the moles of hydrogen and nitrogen with ammonia.

                            H₂              :               NH₃

                            3                :                2

                            6                :             2/3×6 = 4 mol

                           N₂              :                NH₃

                            1                :                 2

Number of moles of ammonia produced by nitrogen are less thus it will act as limiting reactant.

Mass of ammonia produced:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass =  2 mol  ×  17 g/mol

Mass = 34 g
