Answer:

The hormone glucagon secreted by the pancreatic cells cause the release of glucose from the body's storage.

Explanation:

The pancreas is an organ found inside the abdomen. This organ produces hormones such as:

  • Insulin
  • Glucagon
  • Somatostatin
  • Vasoactive intestinal peptide

Insulin and glucagon are considered primary hormones secreted by the pancreas.

Upon skipping a meal, leading to a drop in blood sugar levels, glucagon is secreted by the pancreas. This hormone then acts on the liver to stimulate the conversion of stored up glycogen present in the liver into glucose. This produced glucose is then released into the blood stream, availing the boy glucose for energy.

Determine the molecular geometry based on the description of bonding and lone pairs of electrons around the central atom. Three
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

Three double bonds and no lone pairs of electrons- trigonal planar

Two single bonds and two lone pairs of electrons-bent

Five single bonds and no lone pairs of electrons- trigonal bipyramidal

Three single bonds and one lone pair of electrons- trigonal pyramidal

Two double bonds and no lone pairs of electrons - linear

Four single bonds and no lone pairs of electrons- tetrahedral

Six single bonds and no lone pairs of electrons- octahedral

Explanation:

The valence shell electron pair repulsion theory gives a description of the shape of a molecule based on the number of regions of electron density present on the valence shell of the central atom of the molecule.

The molecules are distorted away from the shape predicted on the basis of the VSEPR by the presence of lone pairs on the valence shell of the central atom in the molecule. In the absence of lone pairs, the shape of a molecule is exactly the shape predicted on the basis of the VSEPR theory.

Consider the equation: 2NO(0) - N.04(). Using ONLY the information given by the equation which of the following
ratelena [41]

Answer:

By increasing the pressure, the molar concentration of  N2O4 will increase

Explanation:

We have the equation 2NO2 ⇔ N2O4

This equation is reversible and exotherm. By <u>decreasing the temperature</u>, the reaction will produce more energy, so the reaction will move to the right.  But a lower temperature also lowers the rate of the process, so, the temperature is set at a compromise value that allows N2O4 to be made at a reasonable rate with an equilibrium concentration that is not too unfavorable

So <u>increasing the temperature</u> will shift the equilibrium to the left. The equilibrium shifts in the direction that consumes energy.

If we d<u>ecrease the concentration of NO2</u>, the equilibrium will shift to the left, resulting in forming more reactants.

To increase the molar concentration of the product N2O4, we have to <u>increase the pressure</u> of the system.

NO2 takes up more space than N2O4, so increasing the pressure would allow the reactant to collide more form more product.

By increasing the pressure, the molar concentration of  N2O4 will increase

A ball is dropped from a height of 1.20 m and hits the floor. The ball compresses and then reforms to spring upwards from the fl
diamong [38]

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{98 m$\cdot$s}^{-2}}

Explanation:

The formula for the velocity of the ball is

v = \sqrt{2gh}

1. Velocity at time of impact

v = -\sqrt{2 \times 9.807 \times 1.20} = -\sqrt{23.54} = -\textbf{4.85 m/s}

2. Velocity on rebound

The ball has enough upward velocity to reach a height of 0.86 m.

v = \sqrt{2 \times 9.807 \times 0.86} = \sqrt{16.87} =\textbf{4.11 m/s}

3. Acceleration

a = \dfrac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} = \dfrac{4.11 - (-4.85)}{ 0.091} = \dfrac{8.96 }{0.091} =\textbf{98 m$\cdot$s}^{\mathbf{-2}}\\\\\text{The acceleration while the ball is in contact with the floor is $\large \boxed{\textbf{98 m$\cdot$s}^{\mathbf{-2}}}$}
