The kidneys perform several important functions in the human body. One of these is to regulate the amount of water that makes up

the liquid part of blood. If too much water is present, the kidney will increase the amount of urine produced and lower the amount of liquid water in the blood. If the amount of water is too low, the kidney will decrease the amount of urine produced in order to conserve water.
A person spends several days in a hot, dry desert environment with little water available to drink. Which statement BEST summarizes how the kidneys will function during this time?
A) the amount of urine produced will increase to allow the body to eliminate heat
B) the amount of urine produced will increase in order to eliminate waste products from the body
C) the amount of urine produced will decrease in order to maintain the proper amount of water in the bloodstream
D) the amount of urine produced will decrease because the body will not be

1 Ammonia, NH3, reacts with incredibly strong bases to produce the amide ion, NH2 -. Ammonia can also react with acids to produc
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

a) ammonium ion

b) amide ion

Explanation:

The order of decreasing bond angles of the three nitrogen species; ammonium ion, ammonia and amide ion is NH4+ >NH3> NH2-. Next we need to rationalize this order of decreasing bond angles from the valence shell electron pair repulsion (VSEPR) theory perspective.

First we must realize that all three nitrogen species contain a central sp3 hybridized carbon atom. This means that a tetrahedral geometry is ideally expected. Recall that the presence of lone pairs distorts molecular structures from the expected geometry based on VSEPR theory.

The amide ion contains two lone pairs of electrons. Remember that the presence of lone pairs causes greater repulsion than bond pairs on the outermost shell of the central atom. Hence, the amide ion has the least H-N-H bond angle of about 105°.

The ammonia molecule contains one lone pair, the repulsion caused by one lone pair is definitely bless than that caused by two lone pairs of electrons hence the bond angle of the H-N-H bond in ammonia is 107°.

The ammonium ion contains four bond pairs and no lone pair of electrons on the outermost nitrogen atom. Hence we expect a perfect tetrahedron with bond angle of 109°.
