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.

What is the relationship between particle collisions and reaction rates?
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

Collision theory states that the rate of a chemical reaction is proportional to the number of collisions between reactant molecules. The more often reactant molecules collide, the more often they react with one another, and the faster the reaction rate.

Limiting Reactant
liraira [26]

Answer:

(1) Cl₂ is the limiting reactant.

(2) 8.18 g

Explanation:

  • 2Na(s) + Cl₂(g) → 2NaCl(s)

First we <u>convert the given masses of reactants into moles</u>, using their <em>respective molar masses</em>:

  • Na ⇒ 12.0 g ÷ 23 g/mol = 0.522 mol Na
  • Cl₂ ⇒ 5.00 g ÷ 70.9 g/mol = 0.070 mol Cl₂

0.070 moles of Cl₂ would react completely with (2 * 0.070) 0.14 moles of Na. There are more Na moles than that, so Na is the reactant in excess while Cl₂ is the limiting reactant.

Then we <u>calculate how many moles of NaCl are formed</u>, <em>using the limiting reactant</em>:

  • 0.070 mol Cl₂ * \frac{2molNaCl}{1molCl_2} = 0.14 mol NaCl

Finally we <u>convert NaCl moles into grams</u>:

  • 0.14 mol NaCl * 58.44 g/mol = 8.18 g

You observe mothballs disappearing in cabinets. What do you think is the reason for this? Do all substances behave like mothball
cricket20 [7]

Answer: Mothballs have weak intermolecular forces.

No all substances do not behave like mothballs at normal conditions. Example: benzene , chloroform

Explanation:

Sublimation is a process of converting a substance from solid state to gaseous state without the formation of liquid at constant temperature.

A substance which undergoes sublimation is called as sublimating substance.

As mothballs is made of napthalene which has weak inter molecular forces of attraction between its molecules, it directly sublimes into gaseous state without leaving any residue and is called as a sublimating substance.

Not all substances behave like mothballs at normal conditions. Example: benzene , chloroform
