They are also called the noble gases or inert gases. They are virtually unreactive towards other elements or compounds. They are found in trace amounts in the atmosphere. Their elemental form at room temperature is colorless, odorless and monatomic gases. They also have full octet of eight valence electrons in their highest orbitals so they have a very little tendency to gain or lose electrons to form ions or share electrons with other elements in covalent bonds.

Explain why aluminum does not react with potassium nitrate (KNO3) although it reacts with copper nitrate
Ratling [72]

Answer:

Potassium is more reactive than aluminium, so no reaction takes place. But aluminium is more reactive than copper, so it replaces the copper in copper nitrate

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

More reactive metal compound + less reactive metal

-> no reaction

However

Less reactive metal compound + more reactive metal

-> more reactive metal compound + less reactive metal

This is called substitution reaction where the more reactive metal replaces the less reactive metal in the compound.

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:

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

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

Which symbol can be used to indicate the pressure at which a chemical reaction is carried out? 25 degrees Celsius over a right a
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

2 atm

Explanation:

Chemical reactions are carried out at a certain rate. Sometimes that rate is quite slow, so we want to speed things up, which is usually used by increasing temperature, increasing pressure or adding a catalyst (a substance that increases the rate without changing itself).

If this is the case, then, when writing a chemical equation, we state these special conditions over a right arrow.

Now let's look at the answers:

- 25°C is a value and unit of temperature

- ∆ is a symbol that denotes change

- 2 atm is a value and unit of pressure (atmosphere is old unit for pressure)

- Pt is a chemical symbol for platinum, an element often used as a catalyst.

So, the correct answer is C) 2 atm
