The <u>secretion</u><u> </u>of acids, buffers, enzymes, and water aids in the breakdown of food.

The food moves through the gastrointestinal tract and breaks down into smaller particles for energy, cell repair, and growth.

Digestion begins when eating and chewing food with the help of teeth in the mouth, then it goes down to the small intestine.

While moving through the gastrointestinal tract it mixes with juices, acids, enzymes, and water which disintegrates the large molecules of food into smaller ones and makes it suitable for assimilation and absorption in the body.

If an element has 1 valence electrons, how many dots will be in the elements dot diagram?
gayaneshka [121]
The answer is one dot.

The number of dots an element has represented in the diagram, indicates how many valence eletrons( which is the number of electrons in the most exterior energy level of an atom or ion) the element has. So, 1 valence eletron equals one dot.

How many grams of solid Ca(OH)2 (74.1 g/mol) are required to make 500 ml of a 3 M solution?
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

111.15 g are required to prepare 500 ml of a 3 M solution

Explanation:

In a 3 M solution of Ca(OH)₂ there are 3 moles of Ca(OH)₂ per liter solution. In 500 ml of this solution, there will be (3 mol/2) 1.5 mol Ca(OH)₂.

Since 1 mol of Ca(OH)₂ has a mass of 74.1 g, 1.5 mol will have a mass of

(1.5 mol Ca(OH)₂ *(74.1 g / 1 mol)) 111.15 g. This mass of Ca(OH)₂ is required to prepare the 500 ml 3 M solution.
