How do charged molecules pass through the membrane.

Chemistry
1 answer:
avanturin [10]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Through transport proteins

Explanation:

There's two transport proteins, channel/pore protein and carrier protein. Charged/polar molecules or ions need specific transport proteins to pass through across the plasma membrane. Transport proteins allows ions/polar molecules to bind to the specific site and allow them to pass through and enter the cell.

(btw, is this a chemistry question? isn't this a biology ques?)

18. Suggest an explanation for the observations that ethanol, C2H5OH, is completely miscible with water and that ethanethiol, C2
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

              Ethanol is completely miscible due to <u><em>presence</em></u> of Hydrogen bonding.

              Ethanethiol is partially miscible due to <u><em>absence</em></u> of Hydrogen Bonding.

Explanation:

                     The miscibility of liquids depend upon the intermolecular interactions between the two liquids. The stronger the intermolecular interactions the more miscible will be the liquids.

Among the two given examples, Ethanol is more miscible in water because it exhibits hydrogen bonding which is considered the strongest intermolecular interaction. Hydrogen bonding occurs when the hydrogen atom is bonded to more electronegative atoms like Fluorine, Oxygen and Nitrogen. In this way the hydrogen atom gets partial positive charge and the electronegative atom gets partial negative charge. Hence, these partial charges results in attracting the opposite charges on other surrounding atoms.

While, in case of Ethanethiol the hydrogen atom is not bonded to any high electronegative atom hence, there will be no hydrogen bonding and therefore, there will be less interactions between the neighbour atoms.

The combustion of ammonia produces NO and water. If the chemical reaction for this process is properly balanced using the smalle
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

10

Explanation:

The unbalanced combustion reaction is shown below as:-

NH_3+O_2\rightarrow NO+H_2O

On the left hand side,  

There are 3 hydrogen atoms and 1 nitrogen atom and 2 oxygen atoms

On the right hand side,  

There are 1 nitrogen atom and 2 hydrogen atoms and 2 oxygen atoms

Thus,  

Right side, H_2O must be multiplied by 6 to balance hydrogen.

Left side, NH_3 must be multiplied by 4 to balance hydrogen.

Also, Right side, NO is multiplied by 4 so to balance nitrogen.

Left side, O_2 must be multiplied by 5 to balance the whole reaction.

Thus, the balanced reaction is:-

4NH_3+5O_2\rightarrow 4NO+6H_2O

Sum of Coefficient of product - 4 + 6 = 10

If the reaction 2HgO --&gt; 2Hg + O2 is endothermic, which bonds are the strongest?
Alika [10]
  • Endothermic reaction means the reactant side takes heat from surrounding and get decomposed i.e ∆H=-ve
  • If the equation is exothermic then it means the reactant is happy to decompose .But it's not as it's endothermic

Now

  • HgO is Omitted from our solution option.

Hg is a atom so no bonds hence no bond strength occurs.

  • O_2 is a molecule and so it's our answer .

In the reaction, 2Na (s) + 2H2O (l) → 2NaOH (aq) + H2 (g), which of the reactants or products is in the gas phase?
lys-0071 [83]
Clearly H2 is in gaseous state as could be seen from (g) written with it which tells state of the product
