B, radon is correct. Interestingly, it often collects in basements from radioactive decay of rocks such as granite that contain uranium. Because it is an unreactive noble gas and because it is denser than air it sits in basements and must be pumped out. It collects in human lungs and is the second leading cause of lung cancer behind smoking.

Answer:

Skeletal system

Explanation:

The skeletal system is made up of all the bones, cartilage, and ligaments in the body. There are over 200 bones in the human skeleton, connected by joints which allow them to bend and rotate.

It protects the vital organs, gives our body form and structure, and allows us to move (or bust a move!)

To move, the skeletal system works with the muscles and nerves in the body.

In an acid-base neutralization reaction 38.74 ml of 0.500 m potassium hydroxide reacts with 50.00 ml of sulfuric acid solution.
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

0.2 M.

Explanation:

  • For the acid-base neutralization, we have the role:

The no. of millimoles of acid is equal to that of the base at the neutralization.

<em>∴ (XMV) KOH = (XMV) H₂SO₄.</em>

X is the no. of reproducible H⁺ (for acid) or OH⁻ (for base),

M is the molarity.

V is the volume.

  • For KOH:

X = 1, M = 0.5 M, V = 38.74 mL.

  • For H₂SO₄:

X = 2, M = ??? M, V = 50.0 mL.

∴ M of H₂SO₄ = (XMV) KOH/(XV) H₂SO₄ = (1)(0.5 M)(38.74 mL)/(2)(50.0 mL) = 0.1937 M ≅ 0.2 M.
