Chemistry

Answer:

Species

Explanation:

Species is the group of organisms able to interbreed and produce fertile offspring.

Let's break down each word in the question:

"Organisms" means living thing. It can be a plant or animal like we usually think of, but it also includes the really small single-celled living things like some bacteria.

"Interbreed" means to mate with each other.

"Fertile" means that the living thing can also have babies.

"Offspring" means the children that are born.

"Fertile offspring" means that the children that are made must be able to have babies of their own. For example, if a frog and a bird could interbreed, they might produce offspring (children). But, if those frog-birds cannot also have children, then frog-bird is not a species.

The combination of potassium-sparing diuretics and salt substitutes can result in dangerously high blood levels of:

alisha [4.7K]

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.

Question List (4 items) (Drag and drop into the appropriate area) Find the volume of HCl that will neutralize the base. Find the

expeople1 [14]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is:

The solubility of slaked lime, $Ca(OH)_2$ , in water is 0.185 g/100 ml. You will need to calculate the volume of $2.50\times 10^{-3}$ M HCl needed to neutralize 14.5 mL of a saturated

<u>Answer:</u> The volume of HCl required is 290mL, the mass of $Ca(OH)_2$ is 0.0268g, the moles of

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given values:

Solubility of $Ca(OH)_2$ = 0.185 g/100 mL

Volume of $Ca(OH)_2$ = 14.5 mL

Using unitary method:

In 100 mL, the mass of $Ca(OH)_2$ present is 0.185 g

So, in 14.5mL. the mass of $Ca(OH)_2$ present will be = $\frac{0.185}{100}\times 14.5=0.0268g$

The number of moles is defined as the ratio of the mass of a substance to its molar mass.

The equation used is:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ ......(1)

Given mass of $Ca(OH)_2$ = 0.0268 g

Molar mass of $Ca(OH)_2$ = 74 g/mol

Plugging values in equation 1:

$\text{Moles of }Ca(OH)_2=\frac{0.0268g}{74g/mol}=0.000362 mol$

Moles of $OH^-$ present = $(2\times 0.000362)=0.000724mol$

The chemical equation for the neutralization of calcium hydroxide and HCl follows:

$Ca(OH)_2+2HCl\rightarrow CaCl_2+2H_2O$

By the stoichiometry of the reaction:

Moles of $OH^-$ = Moles of $H^+$ = 0.000724 mol

The formula used to calculate molarity:

$\text{Molarity of solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution (mL)}}$ .....(2)

Moles of HCl = 0.000724 mol

Molarity of HCl = $2.50\times 10^{-3}$

Putting values in equation 2, we get:

$2.50\times 10^{-3}mol=\frac{0.000724\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution}}\\\\\text{Volume of solution}=\frac{0.000725\times 1000}{2.50\times 10^{-3}}=290mL$

Hence, the volume of HCl required is 290mL, the mass of $Ca(OH)_2$ is 0.0268g, the moles of
