Answers

Answer:

b) maintains the pH of blood near 7.4.

c) regulates the blood pH at 7.4 +/- one pH unit.

f) is facilitated by the enzyme carbonic anhydrase, which interconverts carbon dioxide and water to carbonic acid (ionizes into bicarbonate and H^+).

Explanation:

The pH of human blood is slightly acidic i. e. 7.4. The enzyme carbonic anhydrase is responsible for the regulation to neutral and prevent it from acidic. the enzyme carbonic anhydrase helps in the conversion of carbon dioxide to carbonic acid and bicarbonate ions. When the blood reach to lungs, the bicarbonate ions convert back to CO2 and this carbondioxide is exhaled from the body.

Fill in the blanks: Electrons are ___ in an ionic bond, whereas they are___ in a polar covalent bond, and ___ in a nonpolar covalent bond.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is "transferred; unequally shared; equally shared".

Explanation:

Ionic bonding occurs when a positively charged atom (cation) interacts with a negatively charged atom (anion). In ionic bonding, the cation transfers its electron to the anion. In polar covalent bonding, electrons are unequally shared. This means that the electrons spend more time in an atom than the other, which gives partial positive and negative charges to the atoms. On the other hand in nonpolar covalent bonding, the electrons are equally shared and no charges are created.

The bond angles in H3O are less than____________ and greater than_______.

Answers

Answer:

104.5 and 109.5

Explanation:

Bond angle is the angle formed between three atoms which has at least two bonds present between them. The number of lone pairs in a covalent bond is a determinant of the bond angle as the lone pairs which are negatively charged repulses the bond pairs thereby creating a distortion and angle.

Studies have however shown that the bond angles in H3O are lesser than 109.5 and greater than 103.5. This provides a bond range of H3O.

What voltage would have been observed if you had switched the position of the electrodes but not the solutions for any of the electrochemical cells

Answers

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

An electrochemistry lab was conducted. What voltage would have been observed if you had switched the position of the electrodes but not the solutions for any of the electrochemical cells? (e.g. placed Cu electrode with Zn²+ and Zn with Cu²+).

Clearly explain your answer, include what would have happened in each cell

Answer:

E°cell = +1.10V

Explanation:

At lower reduction potential, electrode acts as an anode ( -ve )

At higher reduction potential, electrode acts as a cathode ( +ve )

NOW

standard reduction of Cu⁺² / Cu electrode,

E° cu⁺²/cu = 0.34V

standard reduction potential of zn⁺² / zn electrode,

E° zn⁺/zn = -0.76V

Zn has lower reduction potential, therefore it acts as an anode and standard reduction potential of Cu has higher reduction potential so it acts as a cathode.

now we know that

E°cell = E°cathode - E°anode

we substitute

E°cell = 0.34V - ( -0.76V)

E°cell = +1.10V

Therefore there is no flow of e- in the wire when the copper electrode placed in Zn²⁺ ( electrode reverse). When zinc electrode placed in copper solution, copper deposition in zinc electrode takes place, so zinc is converted into Zn ion and no flow of e- will occur in outer circuit.

∴ The voltage becomes zero

The solubility of silver sulfate (Ag2SO4), in moles per liter, can be expressed in terms of the resulting ion concentrations. Which relationship is correct?

Answers

Answer:

Solubility = [SO₄²⁻]

Explanation:

Solubility of Ag₂SO₄ can be determined by its ksp equilibrium:

Ag₂SO₄(s) ⇄ SO₄²⁻ + 2Ag⁺

Where 1 mole of silver sulfate dissolves producing 1 mole of sulfate ion and 2 moles of silver ion.

Solubility is defined as the amount of solid that can be dissolved per liter of solution.

The moles of Ag₂SO₄ dissolved are equal to moles of SO₄²⁻.

That means:

Solubility = [SO₄²⁻]

Larissa needs to make 500ml of 2.00 M NaCl. The molecular weight of NaCl is 58.44. How does she make 500ml of 2.00 M NaCl? Question 3 options: A) Measure 29.22g NaCl and dissolve it into 500ml water. B) Measure 29.22g NaCl, dissolve it into 400ml water, and then top off to 500ml in a volumetric flask. C) Measure 58.44g NaCl and dissolve it into 500ml of water. D) Measure 58.44g NaCl, dissolve it into 400ml water, and then top off to 500ml in a volumetric flask.

Answers

Answer:

D) Measure 58.44g NaCl, dissolve it into 400ml water, and then top off to 500ml in a volumetric flask.

Explanation:

2.00M NaCl is a solution that contains 2.00 moles of NaCl per liter of solution.

As you want to prepare 500mL = 0.500L of the solution you need:

0.500L * (2.00 moles / L) = 1.00 moles of NaCl are required to prepare the solution.

Now, to convert these moles to grams you must use Molar weight (58.44g/mol) as follows:

1 moles of NaCl * (58.44g / mol) = 58.44g of NaCl are required to dissolve in 500mL to prepare the 2.00M solution.

And right option is:

D) Measure 58.44g NaCl, dissolve it into 400ml water, and then top off to 500ml in a volumetric flask.

-You can't top off a solution before dissolve all solute because it is possible the volume changes-

Caffeine (C8H10N4O2) is a stimulant found in coffees and teas. When dissolved in water, it can accept a proton from a water molecule. Write the chemical equation for this process and identify the Brønsted-Lowry acid and base

Answers

Answer:

See figure 1

Explanation:

If we want to find the acid and the Brønsted-Lowry base, we must remember the definition for each of these molecules:

-) Acid: hydrogen donor

-) Base: hydrogen acceptor

In the caffeine structure, we have several atoms of nitrogen. These nitrogen atoms have the ability to accept hydronium ions ([tex]H^+[/tex]). Therefore the caffeine molecule will be the base since it can accept

If caffeine is the base, the water must be the acid. So, the water in this reaction donated a hydronium ion.

Thus, caffeine is the base and water the acid. (See figure 1)

In the reaction of caffeine with water, H₂O and C₈H₁₁N₄O₂⁺ are Brønsted-Lowry acids while C₈H₁₀N₄O₂ and OH⁻ are Brønsted-Lowry bases.

Caffeine reacts with water in an acid-base reaction. We want to identify acids and bases according to Brønsted-Lowry theory.

What is Brønsted-Lowry theory?

It is a theory that classifies substances as acids and bases according to their behavior in a reaction.

An acid is a species that donates H⁺.A base is a species that accepts H⁺.

The chemical equation for the acid-base reaction between caffeine and water is:

C₈H₁₀N₄O₂ + H₂O ⇄ C₈H₁₁N₄O₂⁺ + OH⁻

C₈H₁₀N₄O₂ accepts a H⁺ so it is a base while H₂O donates a H⁺ so it is an acid. This reaction is reversible, so we can also state that C₈H₁₁N₄O₂⁺ is an acid because it donates a H⁺ and OH⁻ is a base because it accepts a H⁺.

In the reaction of caffeine with water, H₂O and C₈H₁₁N₄O₂⁺ are Brønsted-Lowry acids while C₈H₁₀N₄O₂ and OH⁻ are Brønsted-Lowry bases.

How many molecules of carbon dioxide are created when 16 molecules of propane react in the following
unbalanced equation?
C3H3 +02— CO2+ H20

Answers

Answer:

48 molecules of CO₂

Explanation:

I think you made a mistake in your question.  The formula for propane is C₃H₈, not C₃H₃.  But, I will give you the answer for both cases.

For C₃H₃:

First you have to balance the equation.

4 C₃H₃  +  15 O₂  ⇒  12 CO₂  +  6 H₂O

Next, you need to use the mole ratios between C₃H₃ and CO₂ to find the amount of molecules of CO₂ you will produce with the given amount of C₃H₃.

(16 mol's C₃H₃) × (12 mol's CO₂/4 mol's C₃H₃) = 48 mol's CO₂

You will get 48 molecules of CO₂.

For C₃H₈:

Balance the equation.

C₃H₈  +  5 O₂  ⇒  3 CO₂  +  4 H₂O

Use the mole ratios between C₃H₈ and CO₂.

(16 mol's C₃H₈) × (3 mol's CO₂/1 mol's C₃H₈) = 48 mol's CO₂

You will get 48 molecules of CO₂ for this equation as well.
