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.

Consider the combustion of methanol at some high temperature in a constant-pressure reaction chamber: 2ch3oh (g) + 3o2 (g) \long
Monica [59]

The balanced reaction is

2CH3OH (g) + 3O2 (g) ⟶ 2CO2 (g) + 4H2O (g)

as per equation two moles of methanol gas will react with 3 moles of oxygen

one mole of gas occupies 22.4 L of volume

so the moles and volume goes in same ratio

it means two unit volume of methanol will react with three unit volume of oxygen

therefore 1L of methanol gas will react with 3 /2 L of oxygen

Or 18 L of methanol gas will react with 3 x 18 /2 = 27  L of oxygen

So here oxygen is limiting reagent

As per balanced equation

10L of oxygen will react with = 2 X 10 /3 L of methanol = 6.67 L of methanol gas to give 6.67 L of CO2 gas and 13.33 L of water gas

So overall there will be = 18 - 6.67 L of left out methanol = 11.33 L

And 6.67 L of CO2 + 13.33 L of water = 20 L

Total volume of gas = 11.33+ 20 = 31.33 L

Which step ONLY occurs in the formation of coal?
quester [9]

"Decaying swamps are covered with seawater" step ONLY occurs in the formation of coal.

<u>Option:</u> B

<u>Explanation:</u>

Coal production continues in regions of swampy wetlands because groundwater is near to or just above the topsoil. Because of this, organic matter is created quickly by the flora present-faster even than it can be broken down. Layers of organic matter are deposited in these areas, and then buried.

Based on the plants and circumstances present, the mechanism that produces coal varies somewhat in various areas but the ultimate method is similar. Coal production has two primary phases: peatification, and coalification. It is a solid black, readily combustible fossil fuel containing a large quantity of carbon-based material-about 50 percent of its mass.
