Answer:

b. potassium.

Explanation:

Potassium-sparing diuretics and salt substitutes are diuretics that eliminate salt and water but save potassium. They act by inhibiting the conducting sodium channels in the collecting tubule, such as amiloride and triamterene, or by blocking aldosterone, such as spironolactone.

Concomitant use of potassium-sparing diuretics together with salt substitutes may result in dangerously high blood levels of serum potassium. For this reason, it is important to consult a physician before taking these substances at the same time to avoid potential problems with potassium accumulation.

When 2.69 g 2.69 g of a nonelectrolyte solute is dissolved in water to make 345 mL 345 mL of solution at 26 °C, 26 °C, the solut

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

The molar concentration of this solution is 0.0463 mol/L

Explanation:

Step 1 : Data given

Mass of a nonelectrolyte solute = 2.69 grams

Volume of water = 345 mL = 0.345 L

Temperature = 26.0°CC = 273 + 26 = 299 K

The osmotic pressure = 863 torr

⇒ 863torr /760 = 1.13553 atm

Step 2: Calculate the molar concentration of this solution

Π = i*M*R*T

⇒with Π = the osmotic pressure = 1.13553 atm

⇒with i = the van't Hoff factor of the nonelectrolyte solute = 1

⇒with M = the molar concentration = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒with R = the gas constant = 0.08206 L*atm/mol*K

⇒with T = the temperature = 299 K

1.13553 atm = 1 * M * 0.08206 L*atm/mol*K * 299 K

M = 1.13553 / (0.08206*299)

M = 0.0463 mol/L

The molar concentration of this solution is 0.0463 mol/L

What is the energy of a wave with wavelength of 4.2 x 10-7 m. (Hint: Calculate for frequency first.)

erik [133]

Answer:

Option B. 4.74×10¯¹⁹ J.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Wavelength (λ) = 4.2×10¯⁷ m

Energy (E) =.?

Next, we shall determine the frequency of the wave. This can be obtained as follow:

Wavelength (λ) = 4.2×10¯⁷ m

Velocity (v) = constant = 3×10⁸ m/s

Frequency (f) =.?

v = λf

3×10⁸ = 4.2×10¯⁷ × f

Divide both side by 4.2×10¯⁷

f = 3×10⁸ / 4.2×10¯⁷

f = 7.143×10¹⁴ s¯¹

Therefore, the frequency of the wave is 7.143×10¹⁴ s¯¹.

Finally, we shall determine the energy of the wave using the following formula

E = hf

Where

E is the energy.

h is the Planck's constant

f is the frequency

Thus, the enery of the wave can be obtained as follow:

Frequency (f) = 7.143×10¹⁴ s¯¹.

Planck's constant = 6.63×10¯³⁴ Js

Energy (E) =..?

E = hf

E = 6.63×10¯³⁴ × 7.14×10¹⁴

E = 4.74×10¯¹⁹ J

Therefore, the energy of the wave is 4.74×10¯¹⁹ J.

Determine the possible traits of the calves if:

White raven [17]

Answer:

1. All red calves i.e. RR

2. All roan calves i.e RW

3. 2 red calves (RR) and two roan calves (RW)

Explanation:

According to this question, a gene coding for fur colour in cattle is involved. Red alleles (R) and white alleles (W) are co-dominant to produce a roan cattle (RW). The possible traits of the following crosses are (see attached punnet square):

1) A red bull (RR) is mated to a red (RR) cow: All red calves i.e. RR

2) A red (RR) bullis mated with white (WW) cow: All roan calves i.e RW

3) A roan bull (RW) is mated with red (RR) cow: 2 red calves (RR) and two roan calves (RW).
