Iron is listed below zinc in the activity series.

Why would two poles of different magnets attract each other?

Kruka [31]

When two magnets are brought near each other, like poles repel; opposite poles attract. When a magnet is brought near a piece of iron, the iron also gets attracted to the magnet, and it acquires the same ability to attract other pieces of iron.

Which is the most active nonmetallic element in group 16?

timama [110]

Oxygen

For metals, reactivity increases as we move through the elements in the period table from top to bottom, and left to right. In contrast, for nonmetals, reactivity increases as we move through the elements in the periodic table, as we move from bottom to the top, and right to left.

Group 16 on the periodic table is also called the oxygen family or chalcogens. It includes the following elements from top to bottom: Oxygen, Sulfur, Selenium, Tellurium, and Polonium. Of these, only Oxygen, Sulfur, and Selenium are nonmetals. Since reactivity of nonmetals increases going up the periodic table, oxygen is therefore the most reactive nonmetal in the group. Shown in the figure below is the reactivity trend in the periodic table.

How does carbonic acid work to maintain blood pH? (Select all that apply.) Check All That Apply When blood is too basic, carboni

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

When blood is too basic, carbonic acid can ionize to bicarbonate and H+ ions, adding H+ ions to the blood.

When blood becomes too acidic, bicarbonate combines with extra H+ ions to form carbonic acid, removing H+ ions from the blood.

Carbonic acid can raise or lower the pH of blood.

Explanation:

A buffer is a solution that resists changes to its pH when small quantities of acids or bases are added to it. The human blood serves as a buffer as it contains a buffer of carbonic acid (H2CO3) and bicarbonate anion (HCO3-) which serves to maintain blood pH between 7.35 and 7.45. Other buffering systems in blood exist such as the Hydrogen ion and oxygen gas which affects oxygen binding to haemoglobin, however the carbonic-acid-bicarbonate buffer is the most important buffer for maintaining acid-base balance in the blood.

A buffer solution is made up of an acid and its conjugate base or a base and its conjugate acid. For carbonic acid-bicarbonate buffer, carbonic acid serves as the acid while bicarbonate serves as the base. When a little quantity of a base as hydroxide ions is added to a buffer, the acid reacts with it and remove it from the solution. On the other hand, when a little quantity of an acid as hydrogen ions are added to a buffer, the conjugate base reacts with it and remove it from the solution, thus keeping the pH of the solution fairly constant.

In the carbonic acid-bicarbonate buffer:

When blood is too basic, carbonic acid can ionize to bicarbonate and H+ ions, adding H+ ions to the blood.

When blood becomes too acidic, bicarbonate combines with extra H+ ions to form carbonic acid, removing H+ ions from the blood.

Thus, carbonic acid can raise or lower the pH of blood.
