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

Increasing the amount of water in which the sugar is dissolved will increase the frequency of collisions between the sucrose mol
Sonja [21]

Answer: The given statement is true.

Explanation:

When we increase the amount of solvent which is water in this case then it means there will occur an increase in the molecules. Hence, there will be more number of collisions to take place with increase in number of molecules.

Therefore, more is the amount of interaction taking place between the molecules of a solution more will be its rate of hydrolysis.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement increasing the amount of water in which the sugar is dissolved will increase the frequency of collisions between the sucrose molecules and the water molecules resulting in an increase in the rate of hydrolysis, is true.

Given that the ka for hocl is 3.5 × 10–8, calculate the k value for the reaction of hocl with oh–.
Harlamova29_29 [7]
Following reaction is involved in above system
HOCl(aq)  ↔  H+(aq) + OCl-<span>(aq)
</span>OCl-(aq) + H2O(l)  ↔ HOCl(aq) + OH-<span>(aq)
</span>
Now, if the system is obeys 1st order kinetics we have
K  = [OCl-][H+<span>]/[HOCl]   ............. (1)
</span>∴ [HOCl-] / [OCl-] = [H+] (1 / 3.0 * 10-8<span>)   ............. (2)
</span>
and now considering that system is obeying 2nd order kinetics, we have
K  = [OH-][HOCl-] / [OCl-] ................. (3<span>)
</span>Subs 2 in 3 we get
K = [OH-][H+] (1 / 3.0 * 10-8<span>)
</span>we know that, [OH-][H+] = 10<span>-14

</span>∴K = 3.3 * 10<span>-7
</span>
Thus, correct answer is e i.e none of these

A substance with a pH of 10 is how much more basic than a substance with a pH of 2?
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

The same holds true for pH values above 7, each of which is ten times more alkaline (another way to say basic) than the next lower whole value. For example, pH 10 is ten times more alkaline than pH 9 and 100 times (10 times 10) more alkaline than pH 8.
