The nurse should recognize this as Chvostek sign.

<h3>What is Chvostek sign?</h3>

A clinical indication that someone may have low blood calcium levels is the Chvostek sign (a decreased serum calcium, called hypocalcemia). The aberrant twitching of muscles that are stimulated (innervated) by the facial nerve  (also known as Cranial Nerve Seven, or CNVII) is known as the Chvostek sign.

The facial muscles on the same side of the face will occasionally contract when the facial nerve is touched in front of the ear (called ipsilateral facial spasm). Frequently, the muscles that regulate the nose, lips, and brows will spasm.

Answer:

Igneous rocks form when magma (molten rock) cools and crystallizes, either at volcanoes on the surface of the Earth or while the melted rock is still inside the crust.

Sedimentary rocks are erosion, weathering, dissolution, precipitation, and lithification. Erosion and weathering include the effects of wind and rain, which slowly break down large rocks into smaller ones.

Metamorphic rocks form when rocks are subjected to high heat, high pressure, hot mineral-rich fluids or, more commonly, some combination of these factors.

Answer:

1) CO₂

2) 0.2551 g

Explanation:

The balanced reactions are:

CaCO₃ + 2HCl → CaCl₂ + H₂O + CO₂

MgCO₃ + 2HCl → MgCl₂ + H₂O + CO₂

1) The gas produced is CO₂.

2) Calculate mass of CaCO₃:

(0.5236 g) (0.4230) = 0.2215 g CaCO₃

Convert to moles:

(0.2215 g CaCO₃) (1 mol / 100.1 g) = 0.002213 mol CaCO₃

Find moles of CaCO₃:

(0.002213 mol CaCO₃) (1 mol CO₂ / mol CaCO₃) = 0.002213 mol CO₂

Convert to mass:

(0.002213 mol CO₂) (44.01 g / mol) = 0.09738 g CO₂

Calculate mass of MgCO₃:

(0.5236 g) (0.5770) = 0.3021 g MgCO₃

Convert to moles:

(0.3021 g MgCO₃) (1 mol / 84.31 g) = 0.003583 mol MgCO₃

Find moles of MgCO₃:

(0.003583 mol MgCO₃) (1 mol CO₂ / mol MgCO₃) = 0.003583 mol CO₂

Convert to mass:

(0.003583 mol CO₂) (44.01 g / mol) = 0.1577 g CO₂

Total mass of CO₂:

0.09738 g CO₂ + 0.1577 g CO₂ = 0.2551 g CO₂
