Answer:

It has been approximately 6 hours after death.

Explanation:

This is because between 2-6 hours after death, the body starts becoming stiff from top to bottom, then spreading to the limbs. Since there is only rigor in his upper body, that would mean that with normal temperature and body conditions, it would be 4 or 5 hours after death. But since he is obese and in cold temperature, there is slower progression of rigor, leading to the maximum time in the first rigor mortis phase, 6 hours.

Forming a hypothesis is accomplished through _______ reasoning.
vfiekz [6]
Deductive reasoning involves making broad observations and examining possibilities to reach a specific, logical conclusion, which is required in the formation of a hypothesis. Conversely, inductive reasoning involves taking specific observations and making broad generalisations from these. Therefore the answer is A.

Consider the following equilibrium: H2CO3+H2O = H3O+HCO3^-1. What is the correct equilibrium expression?
mylen [45]

Equilibrium expression is Keq = \frac{[H3O+][HCO3^-]}{[H2CO3]}\\

<u>Explanation:</u>

Equilibrium expression is denoted by Keq.

Keq is  the equilibrium constant that is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants each raised to the power its stoichiometric coefficients.

Example -

aA + bB = cC + dD

So, Keq = conc of product/ conc of reactant

Keq = \frac{[C]^c [D]^d}{[A]^a [B]^b}

So from the equation, H₂CO₃+H₂O = H₃O+HCO₃⁻¹

Keq = \frac{[H3O^+]^1 [HCO3^-]^1}{[H2CO3]^1 [H2O]^1}

The concentration of pure solid and liquid is considered as 1. Therefore, concentration of H2O is 1.

Thus,

Keq = \frac{[H3O+][HCO3^-]}{[H2CO3]}\\

Therefore, Equilibrium expression is Keq = \frac{[H3O+][HCO3^-]}{[H2CO3]}\\
