Density is the mass of compound divided by its volume can be shown as follows:

$d = 0.5 g /mL = m /V = m /40 = 0.5$

$m = 20 g$

40 mL of snow having 20 g of mass calculated from density.

Now, 10 cm of snow = 3.93 inches = 20 g

As, 10 inches of rain will produce 11 inches of ice as the volume of ice is bigger than rain water.

10 inches rain = 11 inches snow

3.93 inches of snow produced by

$= (3.93 * 10) /11 = 3.57 inches rain.$

Thus, 3.57 incehs of rain produces by 10 cm snow.

Control of Blood pH by respiratory rate.

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

A) During this procedure ( hypoventilation ) The CO2 in the arterial blood vessels and the lungs increases and this drives the PH level in the system lower, and the equilibrium will shift to the right. this is because the Blood-PH level is controlled by CO2 - bicarbonate buffer system

B) The blood PH may rise to 7.60 during Hyperventilation because the removal of CO2 from the lungs causes the increase in $H^+$ which is directly proportional to the increase in Blood PH levels

C) Hyper ventilation before a dash would be useful because it will remove excessive Hydrogen ions and and raise the Blood PH levels in preparedness of the production of acids like Lactic acid

Explanation:

$CO_{2} +H_{2} O$ ⇄ $H^+ + HCO^-_{3}$

B) The blood PH may rise to 7.60 during Hyperventilation because the removal of CO2 from the lungs causes the increase in $H^+$ which is directly proportional to the increase in Blood PH levels

C) Hyper ventilation before a dash would be useful because it will remove excessive Hydrogen ions and and raise the Blood PH levels in preparedness of the production of acids like Lactic acid

The molar heat of vaporization of water is 40.7 kJ mol . How much heat must be absorbed to convert 50.0 grams of liquid water at

podryga [215]

Molar mass of water 18g/mol

Number of mols = 50.0g/18g/mol =2.78 mol

Heat absorbed = 40.7 kj/mol * 2.78 mol = 113.1 kj.

Elden [556K]

Answer:

When copper(II) chloride and sodium carbonate solutions are combined, solid copper(II) carbonate precipitates, leaving a solution of sodium chloride. Write the conventional equation, total ionic equation, and net ionic equation for this reaction.

Explanation:

The word equation for the reaction is:

Copper (II) chloride(aq) + sodium carbonate (aq) ->sodium chloride (aq) + copper carbonate(s)

The balanced chemical equation of the reaction is:

$CuCl_2(aq)+Na_2CO_3(aq)->2NaCl(aq)+CuCO_3(s)$
