Which system helps to prevent microscopic infection and also regulates body temperature?

Chemistry

Naya [18.7K]3 years ago

The body's immune system helps prevent microscopic infection and regulates the body's temperature. The immune system is a collection of organs, cells, and tissues that all work together to maintain the body's resistance to diseases. It has the ability to distinguish pathogens from the body's own tissues, so it can make the necessary responses to fight them.

Acetylene gas is often used in welding torches because of the very high heat produced when it reacts with oxygen gas, producing
disa [49]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

Acetylene C_2H_2 gas is often used in welding torches because of the very high heat produced when it reacts with oxygen O_2 gas, producing carbon dioxide gas and water vapor. Calculate the moles of oxygen needed to produce 1.5 mol of carbon dioxide. Be sure your answer has a unit symbol, if necessary, and round it to the correct number of significant digits.

Answer: 1.9 moles of oxygen are needed to produce 1.5 moles of carbon dioxide.

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

The balanced reaction for combustion of acetylene is:

2C_2H_2+5O_2\rightarrow 4CO_2+2H_2O

According to stoichiometry;

4 moles of carbon dioxide are produced by = 5 moles of oxygen

Thus 1.5 moles of carbon dioxide are produced by =\frac{5}{4}\times 1.5=1.9 moles of oxygen

Thus 1.9 moles of oxygen are needed to produce 1.5 moles of carbon dioxide.

What is the mole fraction of lif in an aqueous solution that contains 39.4% lif (weight/weight %)?
Nookie1986 [14]
The solution contains 39.4% of LiF. Assume that the solution is 100ml. The molar mass of LiF is 25.939, the amount of LiF in mole would be: 100ml * 1g/ml * 39.4%/ 25.939g/mol= 1.52 mol LiF
Then the mass of the water would be: 100gram- 39.4g= 60.6g
If the molar mass of water is 18.015 the mole of the water would be: 60.6g/ 18.015g/mol= 3.36 mol
.
The mole fraction would be:1.52 mol/ 1.52+3.36= 0.339

Complete the mechanism for the reaction by adding the missing curved arrows, atoms, bonds, charges, and nonbonding electron pair
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

In picture 1 attached, we have the starting structure. In picture 2, you have the answer for this.

Basically this is an acid base reaction to promove then, a condensation of the molecule.

In the first step, the carbonile substract a H atom from the HCl. Then, by resonance the OH+, pass the charge to the carbon, which is tertiary and can be easily stabilized. Now, after this, the Chlorine substract an Hydrogen to get a double bond on the carbon with the charge, and this be stable. Now, a second molecule of benzaldehyde reacts with this, so we can have a condensation product.

See picture 2 for complete mechanism.

How you can use atoms mass number atomic number and charge to determine how many protons neutrons and electrons
hoa [83]
The first thing you will need to do is find some information about your element. Go to the Periodic Table of Elements and click on your element. If it makes things easier, you can select your element from an alphabetical listing.

Use the Table of Elements to find your element's atomic number and atomic weight. The atomic number is the number located in the upper left corner and the atomic weight is the number located on the bottom, as in this example for krypton:

Krypton's data from the Table of Elements

Step 2 - The Number of Protons is...
The atomic number is the number of protons in an atom of an element. In our example, krypton's atomic number is 36. This tells us that an atom of krypton has 36 protons in its nucleus.

The interesting thing here is that every atom of krypton contains 36 protons. If an atom doesn't have 36 protons, it can't be an atom of krypton. Adding or removing protons from the nucleus of an atom creates a different element. For example, removing one proton from an atom of krypton creates an atom of bromine.

Step 3 - The Number of Electrons is...
By definition, atoms have no overall electrical charge. That means that there must be a balance between the positively charged protons and the negatively charged electrons. Atoms must have equal numbers of protons and electrons. In our example, an atom of krypton must contain 36 electrons since it contains 36 protons.

Electrons are arranged around atoms in a special way. If you need to know how the electrons are arranged around an atom, take a look at the 'How do I read an electron configuration table?' page.

An atom can gain or lose electrons, becoming what is known as an ion. An ion is nothing more than an electrically charged atom. Adding or removing electrons from an atom does not change which element it is, just its net charge.

For example, removing an electron from an atom of krypton forms a krypton ion, which is usually written as Kr+. The plus sign means that this is a positively charged ion. It is positively charged because a negatively charged electron was removed from the atom. The 35 remaining electrons were outnumbered by the 36 positively charged protons, resulting in a charge of +1.

Step 4 - The Number of Neutrons is...
The atomic weight is basically a measurement of the total number of particles in an atom's nucleus. In reality, it isn't that clean cut. The atomic weight is actually a weighted average of all of the naturally occurring isotopes of an element relative to the mass of carbon-12. Didn't understand that? Doesn't matter. All you really need to find is something called the mass number. Unfortunately, the mass number isn't listed on the Table of Elements. Happily, to find the mass number, all you need to do is round the atomic weight to the nearest whole number. In our example, krypton's mass number is 84 since its atomic weight, 83.80, rounds up to 84.

The mass number is a count of the number of particles in an atom's nucleus. Remember that the nucleus is made up of protons and neutrons. So, if we want, we can write:

Mass Number = (Number of Protons) + (Number of Neutrons)

For krypton, this equation becomes:

84 = (Number of Protons) + (Number of Neutrons)

If we only knew how many protons krypton has, we could figure out how many neutrons it has. Wait a minute... We do know how many protons krypton has! We did that back in Step 2! The atomic number (36) is the number of protons in krypton. Putting this into the equation, we get:

84 = 36 + (Number of Neutrons)

What number added to 36 makes 84? Hopefully, you said 48. That is the number of neutrons in an atom of krypton.

The interesting thing here is that adding or removing neutrons from an atom does not create a different element. Rather, it creates a heavier or lighter version of that element. These different versions are called isotopes and most elements are actually a mixture of different isotopes.

If you could grab atoms of krypton and count the number of neutrons each one had, you would find that most would have 48, others would have 47, some would have 50, some others would have 46, a few would have 44 and a very few would have 42. You would count different numbers of neutrons because krypton is a mixture of six isotopes.

In Summary...
For any element:

Number of Protons = Atomic Number
Number of Electrons = Number of Protons = Atomic Number
Number of Neutrons = Mass Number - Atomic Number
For krypton:

Number of Protons = Atomic Number = 36
Number of Electrons = Number of Protons = Atomic Number = 36
Number of Neutrons = Mass Number - Atomic Number = 84 - 36 = 48

Calculate the standard potential for a cell that employs the over-all cell reaction: 2Al(s) + 3 I2(s)→2 Al+3 + 6 I- From reducti
Valentin [98]

Answer:

Explanation:

2Al(s) + 3 I₂(s)   →    2 Al⁺³    +     6 I⁻

Aluminium is oxidised and iodine is reduced .

so cell potential = Ereduction - Eoxidation

Al⁺³ + 3e = Al          -  1.66 V

I₂ + 2 e = 2 I⁻             0.54 V

=  .54 - ( - 1.66 )

= 1.66 + .54

= 2.2  V
