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.

8. Balance the following nuclear equations:<br> ^65/30Ca -&gt; ^65/29Sc +_______
a_sh-v [17]

Explanation:

          ⁶⁵₃₀Ca   →   ⁶⁵₂₉Sc  +   ⁿₓH

The reaction above is nuclear reaction.

In a nuclear reaction, the mass number and atomic number must be conserved.

The mass number is the superscript before the atom

Atomic number is the subscript before the atom

  Conserving mass number:

       65 = 65 + n

        n = 0

   conserving atomic number:

    30 = 29 + x

     x = 1

The unknown atom is a positron i.e a positively charged electron:   ⁰₁e

              ⁶⁵₃₀Ca   →   ⁶⁵₂₉Sc  +  ⁰₁e

Under which conditions of temperature and pressure does a real gas behave most like an ideal gas
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

Generally, a gas behaves more like an ideal gas at higher temperature and lower pressure, as the potential energy due to intermolecular forces becomes less significant compared with the particles' kinetic energy, and the size of the molecules becomes less significant compared to the empty space between them.
