Mr. Smith is hyperglycemic with a blood glucose level of 300mg/ml of blood. Explain how homeostasis would regulate his glucose l

Answer:

When the animal has eaten food and the blood glucose level in the body increases. The pancreas cells in the body detects the increase in the blood glucose which leads to increase the insulin hormone.

This decreases the blood glucose level in the level. This is how the negative feedback works in the body if the level of glucose increases.

Negative feedback is the way by which the body maintains homeostasis and maintains equilibrium in the body.

How many grams of Boron can be obtained from 234 grams of B2O3?
Xelga [282]

Answer:

72.67g of B

Explanation:

The reaction of B₂O₃ to produce boron (B), is:

B₂O₃ → 3/2O₂ + 2B

<em>That means B₂O₃ produce 2 moles of boron</em>

Molar mass of B₂O₃ is 69.62g/mol. 234g of B₂O₃ contains:

234g B₂O₃ ₓ (1mol / 69.62g) = 3.361 moles of B₂O₃.

As 1 mole of B₂O₃ produce 2 moles of B, Moles of B that can be produced from B₂O₃ is:

3.361mol B₂O₃ ₓ 2 = <em>6.722 moles of B</em>.

As molar mass of B is 10.811g/mol. Thus mass of B that can be produced is:

6.722mol B ₓ (10.811g / mol) = <em>72.67g of B</em>

2. If 2.50g of sodium hydroxide is being reacted with 4.30g of magnesium chloride, how many grams of magnesium hydroxide would b
Virty [35]

Answer:

1.822 g of magnesium hydroxide would be produced.

Explanation:

Balanced reaction: 2NaOH+MgCl_{2}\rightarrow Mg(OH)_{2}+2NaCl

     Compound                                 Molar mass (g/mol)

         NaOH                                           39.997

         MgCl_{2}                                           95.211

        Mg(OH)_{2}                                        58.3197

So, 2.50 g of NaOH = \frac{2.50}{39.997} mol of NaOH = 0.0625 mol of NaOH

      4.30 g of MgCl_{2}  = \frac{4.30}{95.211} mol of MgCl_{2} = 0.0452 mol of MgCl_{2}

According to balanced equation-

2 mol of NaOH produce 1 mol of Mg(OH)_{2}    

So, 0.0625 mol of NaOH produce (\frac{0.0625}{2}) mol of NaOH or 0.03125 mol of NaOH

1 mol of MgCl_{2} produces 1 mol of Mg(OH)_{2}

So, 0.0452 mol of MgCl_{2} produce 0.0452 mol of Mg(OH)_{2}

As least number of moles of Mg(OH)_{2} are produced from NaOH therefore NaOH is the limiting reagent.

So, amount of Mg(OH)_{2} would be produced = 0.03125 mol

                                                                           = (0.03125\times 58.3197) g

                                                                           = 1.822 g

Calculate the mass of 25,000 molecules of nitrogen gas. (1 mole = 6.02 x 1023 molecules)
Ainat [17]

Hey there!

Molar mass N2 = 28.01 g/mol

Therefore:

28.01 g N2 -------------- 6.02*10²² molecules N2

( mass N2 ?? ) ----------- 25,000 molecules N2

mass N2 =  ( 25,000 * 28.01 ) /  ( 6.02*10²³ )

mass N2 = 700250 / 6.02*10²³

mass N2 = 1.163*10⁻¹⁸ g

Formulating an Investigative Question In this experiment, you will use a track and a toy car to explore the concept of movement.
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

A scientific question to be asked is; <em>What is the average speed of the toy car?</em>

Explanation:

A scientific question is a question which is well defined, the values in the question can be measured, and the inputs and outputs related to the question are controllable

The parameters measured in the experiment are;

The time elapsed during the movement of the car, <em>Δt</em>

The distance the car moves, <em>d</em>

From the obtained measurements, the value can be calculated is the average speed of the toy car as follows;

The \ average \ speed \ of \ the \ toy \ car, \ v_{avg} = \dfrac{d}{\Delta t}

Therefore, a scientific question to be asked that will be answered by doing the experiment is; What is the average speed of the toy car?
