The specific heat capacity  the substance is calculated  using  the below formula

Q(heat) = Mc delta T
Q =1560  cal
m(mass) 312 g
delta T (change in temperature ) = 15 c
C= specific heat capacity=?

by making c the subject of the formula 
c=Q/m delta T
= 1560  cal/ 312g x 15 c = 0.33 cal/g/c (answer B)

From each drop-down menu, a solid has (a definite volume and a definite shape), a Liquid has (a definite volume) and gas has ( non of the above)

<h3>The features of different states of Matter:</h3>

Matter is defined as anything that has weight and occupies space.

There are three states of matter that is in existence which include:

  • Solid: The particles of solid are closely packed together and vibrate around fixed axes. That is why they have a definite shape and volume.

  • Liquid: The particles of liquid, though attracted to each other,move freely over each other. That is why they have definite volume but not a definite shape.

Therefore, a liquid occupies the shape of its container.

  • Gas: The particles of gas contain scattered molecules that are dispersed across a given volume.

Therefore, a gas neither has a definite shape nor volume.

A client has experienced excessive losses of bicarbonate and has subsequently developed an acid–base imbalance. How will this lo
IRISSAK [1]

The kidneys will excrete increased quantities of acid.

Explanation:

The kidneys will excrete excess H+ ions in the blood (remember H+ ions are responsible for acidity) until the acid-base balance is restored in the blood. Bicarbonates, on the other hand, will be aggressively  reabsorbed by the renal tubules as the excess H+ are being excreted.

The acid base balance is mainly determined by the quantities of H⁺ and HCO₃⁻ ions in teh blood. These ions come from the dissociation of carbonic acid formed when carbon dioxide from tissues is dissolved in blood plasma.
