The answer is a. to increase surface area of a solute. The mortar and pestle can make the solute from bulk to powder. So the surface area will increase and the reaction rate or dissolving rate will also increase.

Answer : The correct option is, (a) to increase surface area of a solute

Explanation :

A mortar and pestle is a type tool that is used in the chemical laboratory for grinding and mixing the substances.

In the mortar and pestle, the pestle is a heavy or small substance that is made from porcelain material that has the rounded end. The mortar is a bowl type that is also made from porcelain material.

In the chemical laboratory, the scientists use a mortar and pestle due to increase the surface area of a solute. That means by the girding of the solute, the surface area will increases.

Hence, the correct option is, (a) to increase surface area of a solute

Genrish500 [490]

The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which has been provided in the attachment.

Answer:

1. sudden decrease

2. Respiratory alkalosis

Explanation:

Hyperventilation is a condition caused by the excess removal of the CO₂ from the blood which leads to the decrease in the pCO₂ of the arteries.

This decrease can cause fainting and death of the individual due to the malfunctioning of the body parts, especially the brain.

The decrease in the CO₂ amount of the blood causes the formation of bicarbonate and H⁺ ions which leads to respiratory alkalosis.

Therefore the selected options are correct.

Identify the products in the reaction HCl+NaOH=NaCl+H2O

valentina_108 [34]

NaCl and H2O.

The products are typically the elements/compounds on the right side of the equation or the right side of the arrow. The left side of the arrow would be the reactants of the equation.

Hope this helps!

Draw the simplified curved arrow mechanism for the reaction of butan-2-one and CH3Li to give the major product.

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

Follows are the solution to this question:

Explanation:

Please find the image file of the chemical reaction in the attachment:

In a water medium, the CH3- type CH 3Li is a heavy nucleophile that attacks the carbonyl carbon atom to form the alkoxide ion, which will then be protonated to form alcohol.
