Decribe an example of how external temperature may affect human body functions

1 answer:

4 0

If your body temperature falls to 95°F (35°C) or lower, you have “hypothermia.” This condition can potentially lead to cardiac arrest, brain damage, or even death. If your body temperature rises as high as 107.6°F (42 °C), you can suffer brain damage or even death.

A glass marble is rubbed against a piece of silk. As a result the piece of fabric acquires extra electrons. What happens to the

Natalija [7]

Answer:

There was an electron transfer where the marble has lost the same amount of electrons (being positively charged) that the piece of silk has gained (being negatively charged).

Explanation:

As a result of this transfer of electrons and the charges induced in the objects they will attract.

When a body is endowed with electrical properties, that is, it acquires electrical charges, it is said to have been electrified.

Electrification is one of the phenomena that studies electrostatics.

To explain how static electricity originates, we must consider that matter is made of atoms, and atoms of charged particles, a nucleus surrounded by a cloud of electrons. Normally, matter is neutral (not electrified), it has the same number of positive and negative charges.

Some atoms are easier to lose their electrons than others. If a material tends to lose some of its electrons when it comes into contact with another, it is said to be more positive in the Triboelectric series. If a material tends to capture electrons when it comes into contact with another material, that material is more negative in the triboelectric series.

The amount ofcalcium present in milk can be determined by adding oxalate to asample and measuring the massof calcium oxalate pre

Sauron [17]

<u>Answer:</u> The mass percent of calcium in milk is 0.107 %

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ .....(1)

Given mass of calcium oxalate = 0.429 g

Molar mass of calcium oxalate = 128.1 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of calcium oxalate}=\frac{0.429g}{128.1g/mol}=0.0033mol$

The given chemical equation follows:

$Na_2C_2O_4(aq.)+Ca^{2+}(aq.)\rightarrow CaC_2O_4(s)+2Na^+(aq.)$

Sodium oxalate is present in excess. So, it is considered as an excess reagent. And, calcium ion is a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of product.

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of calcium oxalate is produced from 1 mole of calcium ion

So, 0.0033 moles of calcium oxalate is produced from = $\frac{1}{1}\times 0.0033=0.0033mol$ of calcium ions

Now, calculating the mass of calcium ions by using equation 1, we get:

Moles of calcium ions = 0.0033 moles

Molar mass of calcium ions = 40 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.0033mol=\frac{\text{Mass of calcium ions}}{40g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of calcium ions}=(0.0033mol\times 40g/mol)=0.132g$

To calculate the mass percentage of calcium ions in milk, we use the equation:

$\text{Mass percent of calcium ions}=\frac{\text{Mass of calcium ions}}{\text{Mass of milk}}\times 100$

Mass of milk = 125 g

Mass of calcium ions = 0.132 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Mass percent of calcium ions}=\frac{0.132g}{125g}\times 100=0.107\%$

Hence, the mass percent of calcium in milk is 0.107 %

In solids, the particles of matter are not in constant motion.

True because in a solid particles dont move so it wouldn't be in a constant motion.
