Explain using the particle theory why objects generally expand when heated and contract when cooled?

Chemistry

seraphim [82]3 years ago

When heated, particles vibrate faster, thus increasing the distance between one another. The distance between these particles results in changes of state. Therefore, increased molecular motion results in expansion of an object. This works vice versa for cooling. As the vibrations slow down, the particles become closer together. This results in contraction.

Hydrogen ion secretion leads to bicarbonate ions reabsorption in order to maintain proper blood pH balance. Hydrogen ion secreti
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Carbon dioxide is transported by the blood in the dissolved form. carbonic anhydrase is the enzyme which is a metalloenzyme having zinc at active site converts carbon dioxide into carbonic acid which dissolves in the blood.

Thus,  

H₂O (l) + CO₂ (g) ⇔ H⁺(aq) + HCO₃²⁻(aq)

The kidneys in the body help to control the acid base balance. The hydrogen ion secretion in the body leads to the generation and reabsorption of the bicarbonate ions to form carbon dioxide in order to nullify the effect of the acid generated and thus the pH of the blood is maintained.
