The reason why distilled water is being added to the crucible after having It to be ignited with the magnesium ribbon is mainly because it is needed to decompose the magnesium nitride to produce a more better result in the experiment and prevent it from reacting more vulgar such as having it to explode.

Answer:

To decompose the Mg3N and release ammonium gas

Explanation:

Distilled water is the pure state of water, without mixing with other substances and microorganisms. It is obtained through the distillation process. Even though it is clean water, it is not suitable for consumption, however it can have several other applications, such as being added to the crucible after ignition of the magnesium metal, because it allows the decomposition of Mg3N and release of ammonium gas, avoiding the emergence of explosions.

IRISSAK [1]

The kidneys will excrete increased quantities of acid.

Explanation:

The kidneys will excrete excess H+ ions in the blood (remember H+ ions are responsible for acidity) until the acid-base balance is restored in the blood. Bicarbonates, on the other hand, will be aggressively  reabsorbed by the renal tubules as the excess H+ are being excreted.

The acid base balance is mainly determined by the quantities of H⁺ and HCO₃⁻ ions in teh blood. These ions come from the dissociation of carbonic acid formed when carbon dioxide from tissues is dissolved in blood plasma.

2.24g of iron combine with 0.96g of oxygen to form an oxide of iron. Determine the formula of this oxide of iron and use it to c
irakobra [83]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

Let us find the number of moles of each element

For iron = 2.24g/56 = 0.04 moles

For oxygen = 0.96 g/16 = 0.06 moles

Then we divide by the lowest ratio;

0.04/0.04      and     0.06/0.04

1                      and     2

We Thus obtain 1 : 1.5

Multiplying through by 2 we have; 2 : 3

The formula of the oxide formed is Fe2O3

The balanced equation is;

4Fe + 3O2 ------> 2Fe2O3
