The mixture contains:

CaCO3 + (NH4)2CO3 in which the amount of carbonate CO3 = 60.7% by mass

Let, the total mass = 100 grams

Mass of CaCO3 = x grams

Mass of (NH4)2CO3 = y grams

Thus, x + y = 100 ------------(1)

Mass of CO3 = 60.7% = 60.7 g

Molar mass of CO3 = 60 g/mol

Total # moles of CO3 = 60.7 g/60 g.mol-1 = 1.012 moles

The total moles of CO3 comes from CaCO3 and (NH4)2CO3. Therefore,

moles CaCO3 + moles (NH4)2CO3 = 1.012

mass CaCO3/molar mass CaCO3 + mass (NH4)2 CO3/molar mass = 1.012

x/100 + y/96 = 1.012---------(2)

based on equation 1 we can write: y = 100-x

x/100 + (100-x)/96 = 1.012

x = 71.2 g

Mass of CaCO3 = 71.2 g

The osmolarity (osmotic concentration) of the filtrate does not change from the beginning to the end of the promixal convoluted

Alex Ar [27]

Answer:Although the kidneys are the major osmoregulatory organ, the skin and lungs also play a role in the process. Water and electrolytes are lost through sweat glands in the skin, which helps moisturize and cool the skin surface, while the lungs expel a small amount of water in the form of mucous secretions and via evaporation of water vapor.

Kidneys: The Main Osmoregulatory Organ

The kidneys, illustrated in Figure 22.4, are a pair of bean-shaped structures that are located just below and posterior to the liver in the peritoneal cavity. The adrenal glands sit on top of each kidney and are also called the suprarenal glands. Kidneys filter blood and purify it. All the blood in the human body is filtered many times a day by the kidneys; these organs use up almost 25 percent of the oxygen absorbed through the lungs to perform this function. Oxygen allows the kidney cells to efficiently manufacture chemical energy in the form of ATP through aerobic respiration. The filtrate coming out of the kidneys is called urine.

The active boundary between plates is a

eduard

Divergent boundaries are areas where plates move away from each other, forming either mid-oceanic ridges or rift valleys. These are also known as constructive boundaries. ... Subduction zones occur where an oceanic plate meets a continental plate and is pushed underneath it. Subduction zones are marked by oceanic trenches.

For the following reaction, Kc = 15 at 700 K. 2 NO(g) + Cl2(g) ⇄ 2 NOCl(g) If we have [NO] = 0.15 M, [Cl2] = 0.15 M, [NOCl] = 0.

Answer : The correct option is, The equilibrium will shift to the left until all the NOCl is used up.

Explanation :

Reaction quotient (Q) : It is defined as the measurement of the relative amounts of products and reactants present during a reaction at a particular time.

The given balanced chemical reaction is,

$2NO(g)+Cl_2(g)\rightarrow 2NOCl(g)$

The expression for reaction quotient will be :

$Q=\frac{[NOCl]^2}{[NO]^2[Cl_2]}$

In this expression, only gaseous or aqueous states are includes and pure liquid or solid states are omitted.

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get

$Q=\frac{(0.40)^2}{(0.15)^2(0.15)}=47.4$

The given equilibrium constant value is, $K=15$

Equilibrium constant : It is defined as the equilibrium constant. It is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants.

There are 3 conditions:

When $Q>K$ that means product > reactant. So, the reaction is reactant favored.

When $Q$ that means reactant > product. So, the reaction is product favored.

When $Q=K$ that means product = reactant. So, the reaction is in equilibrium.

From the above we conclude that, the $Q>K$ that means product > reactant. So, the reaction is reactant favored that means reaction must shift to the reactants to be in equilibrium or shift to the left side.

Hence, the correct option is, The equilibrium will shift to the left until all the NOCl is used up.
