Phoenix [80]3 years ago

There are two types of fluid in the body extracellular fluid and intracellular fluid (ECF and ICF), together they are account for total body water.
The Sodium (Na+) ion is at higher concentration in the extracellular fluid than in the intracellular fluid. The function of extracellular fluid is that it provide cells to watery environment so that they can easily live and perform their function.

I’m confused because this is the answer key and I don’t know how they got the answer to number 1)
Tems11 [23]

Question One

It's more a question of unscrambling what is there. The answer is correct.

If you look at your periodic table, there is such an element as Na which I suspect might be the problem.

It has an atomic mass of 23. It's atomic number is 11 which means it is the 11th member (by mass) on the periodic table. The other 2 are oxygen and hydrogen.  So Oxygen has an atomic mass of 16 and Hydrogen has an atomic  mass of 1.

Oxygen is number 8 on the periodic table and hydrogen is number 1.

Molecular Mass

Na = 23

O = 16

H = 1

Total 40, just as the answer key says. I've probably given you more than you wanted to know, but if you still have trouble, leave a note.

Which of the following mixtures would result in a buffered solution when 1.0 L of each of the two solutions are mixed?
drek231 [11]

Answer:

c. 0.2 M HNO₃ and 0.4 M NaF .

Explanation:

A buffer is defined as the mixture of a weak acid with its conjugate base or a weak base with its conjugate acid.

A weak acid or weak base are defined as an acid or base that partially dissociates in aqueous solution. in contrast, a strong acid or base are acids or bases that is dissociated completely in water.

Thus:

a. 0,2M HNO₃ and 0.4 M NaNO₃. This is a mixture of a strong acid with its conjugate base. <em>IS NOT </em>a buffer.

b. 0.2 M HNO₃ and 0.4 M HF . This is a mixture of two strong acids. <em>IS NOT </em>a buffer.

c. 0.2 M HNO₃ and 0.4 M NaF . NaF is the conjugate base of a weak acid as HF is.

The reaction of HNO₃ with NaF is:

HNO₃ + NaF → HF + NaNO₃

That means that in solution you will have a weak acid (HF) with its conjugate base (NaF). Thus, this mixture <em>IS </em>a buffer.

d. 0.2 M HNO₃ and 0.4 M NaOH. This is the mixture of a strong acid with a strong base, thus, this <em>IS NOT </em>a buffer.

I hope it helps!

What is the temperature of 0.5 moles of water vapor that occupies 120 dm3 and applies a pressure of 15,000 Pa to its container?
MArishka [77]
Use the ideal gas law:

PV = nRT

so, T = PV / nR

n=0.5
V= 120 dm^3 = 120 L  (1 dm^3 = 1 L)
R = 1/12
P = 15,000 Pa =  0.147 atm     (1 pa = 9.86 10^{-6} )

Put the values:

T = PV / nR
T = (0.147) (120) / (0.5) (1/12)
T= 426 K
