What are the three parts of the body responsible for the excretion of excess water

The organs that are involved in the excretion of water from the body include:

1. Kidneys (Primary organ for water removal)

2. Skin

3. Lungs

The kidneys play a key role in maintaining the water balance of the body. The kidneys control the water levels in the body by conserve water when there is shortage, and they can expel excess water by diluting the urine.

The skin has water in it. This water gets lost to the atmosphere by the process of evaporation. This is independent of the process of sweating wherein the skin actively releases water in the form of sweat to cool the body.

Our breath has a lot of moisture in it. This moisture is present due to the evaporation process taking place within the lungs due to the heat of the body. Thus lungs also become a part of the water loss mechanism.

Heart rate. <span>From this site, the two channels of the autonomic nervous system originate the sympathetic and parasympathetic components. The sympathetic components increase heart rate by releasing the neural hormone catecholamines - epinephrine and norepinephrine. These hormones are cardio accelerators. Acceleration of the heart rate is called tachycardia.</span>

A student is collecting the gas produced
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

0.062 moles of hydrogen gas

Explanation:

We must first out down the reaction equation before we can attempt to solve the problem.

Mg(s) + 2HCl(aq) ----> MgCl2(aq) + H2(g)

Next we obtain the number of moles in 1.5 g of magnesium metal from;

Molar mass of magnesium = 24.3 gmol-1

Number of moles of magnesium= mass/molar mass = 1.5g/24.3gmol-1 = 0.062 moles

From the reaction equation;

1 mole of magnesium metal yields 1 mole of hydrogen gas

0.062 moles of magnesium metal will yield 0.062 moles of hydrogen gas

Therefore, reaction of 1.5g of magnesium metal with excess hydrochloric acid will yield 0.062 moles of hydrogen gas.
