Chapter 5, Problem 5.73GP
High temperature combustion processes, such as in combustion engines and coal-fired power plants, can result in the reaction of nitrogen and sulfur with oxygen to form nitrogen oxides (NOx) and sulfur oxides (SOx), where x can vary. These NOx and SOx compounds subsequently undergo further reaction in the atmosphere to create acidic compounds that contribute to acid rain.
(a) Do some research to determine the common products that are formed (i.e., what are the values of x) for the reactions of N and S with oxygen. Write balanced equations for these reactions.
(b) What additional reactions do these NOx and SOx compounds undergo in the atmosphere that lead to the formation of acidic compounds? Write balanced equations for these reactions.
(c) Classify each of the reactions you identified in parts (a) and (b) (precipitation, neutralization, or redox) and explain your reason for each classification.

How does a voltage-gated sodium channel work? Specifically, how and why does a change in voltage trigger their opening? Please be detailed
When sodium ions enter a neuron during depolarization, they trigger the opening of additional voltage-gated sodium channels nearby, creating a positive feedback loop where the influx of sodium ions further depolarizes the membrane, causing even more sodium channels to open and allowing more sodium ions to enter the cell, thus sustaining the depolarization process until the action potential peaks. But how and why exactly does the influx of sodium ions trigger more sodium channels to let in more sodium? Please explain
