Question
Chapter 23, Problem 23.54E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
An explanation corresponding to the fact that the liver glycogen is used to increase blood sugar levels, but muscle glycogen is not used to increase blood sugar levels is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The process by which glycogen is synthesized from glucose is called glycogenesis. The conversion of glucose into glycogen occurs when glucose is consumed in excess amounts higher than the body required at that moment. The process of glycogenesis takes place in the cells of the liver and muscles. At the end of this process, the units of glucose are bonded to the growing chain of glycogen.

Determine if the following salt is neutral, acidic or basic. If acidic or basic, write the appropriate equilibrium equation for the acid or base that exists when the salt is dissolved in aqueous solution. If neutral, simply write only NR. Be sure to include the proper phases for all species within the reaction. NaN₃
