When dissolved in water, flunitrazepam, also known as roofies or the "date rape" drug, is difficult to detect because it is colorless, odorless, and tasteless. Recently, a straw has been developed that changes color when placed in a drink spiked with flunitrazepam. A woman at a bar is worried that flunitrazepam was slipped into her water when she left it unattended. She places one of these new color-changing straws into the water and the straw does not change color. Based on this result, is the woman's drink a pure substance or a mixture? mixture pure substance If it is a pure substance, is it an element or a compound? compound
Cocaine is a widely abused, addicting drug. Cocaine is usually obtained as its hydrochloride salt (cocaine hydrochloride) but can be converted to crack (the neutral organic molecule) by treatment with base. Which of the two compounds here has a higher boiling point? Which is more soluble in water? How does the relative solubility explain why crack is usually smoked but cocaine hydrochloride is injected directly into the bloodstream?
MReview | Constants | Perio Part A Describe in general terms how a steroid hormone works. Steroid hormones travel through the bloodstream and bind to cell receptors, which are on the outside of a cell. The receptors cause production within cells of "second messengers" that activate enzymes. Steroid hormones travel through the bloodstream to target tissues. Because they are lipids, they are able to pass through the cell membrane. Receptors for steroid hormones occur either in intracellular fluid or in the nucleus.
