Between 1.00 & 1.5 grams would be the normal amount

3 0

the amount of elements may vary from person to person however based on analysis, averages and trends the composition of human body is like it mainly contains about 60% of oxygen by mass, 23% of carbon by mass, 10% hydrogen,2.5% nitrogen and then near by 1.4-1.5% of calcium

Thus if a man is weighing 60kg then the approximate or expected amount of calcium will be :

1.4% X 60kg = 0.84 kg

We may say that it will have 800-900 grams of calcium in its body.

What is the molarity of a NaOH solution if 28.2 mL of a 0.355 M H2SO4 solution is required to neutralize a 25.0-mL sample of the
Verdich [7]

Answer:

[NaOH} = 0.4 M

Explanation:

In a reaction of neutralization, we determine the equivalence point of the titration. In this case, we have a strong base and a strong acid.

(H₂SO₄, is considered strong, but the first deprotonation is weak)

2NaOH  +  H₂SO₄  →  Na₂SO₄  + 2H₂O

As we have 2 protons in the acid, we need 2 OH⁻ from the base to form 2 molecules of water.

In the equivalence point we know mmoles of base = mmoles of acid

Let's finish the excersise with the formula

25 mL . M NaOH = 28.2 mL  .  0.355M

M NaOH = (28.2 mL  .  0.355M) / 25 mL → 0.400

Write the appropriate symbol for each of the following isotopes: (a) Z 74, A 186; (b) Z 80, A 201; (c) Z 34, A 76; (d) Z 94, A 2
beks73 [17]

Answer:  a)  _{74}^{186}\textrm{W}

b) _{80}^{201}\textrm{Hg}

c)  _{34}^{76}\textrm{Se}

d) _{94}^{239}\textrm{Pu}

Explanation:

General representation of an element is given as:_Z^A\textrm{X}

where,

Z represents Atomic number

A represents Mass number

X represents the symbol of an element

Mass number is defined as the sum of number of protons and neutrons that are present in an atom.

Mass number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons

In an atom, when neutrons or protons are lost or gains, it directly affects the mass number of an atom.

Atomic number is defined as the number of protons or number of electrons that are present in an atom.

It is characteristic of a particular element.

Atomic number = Number of electrons = Number of proton

a) Z 74, A 186: _{74}^{186}\textrm{W}

b) Z 80, A 201: _{80}^{201}\textrm{Hg}

c) Z 34, A 76: _{34}^{76}\textrm{Se}

d) Z 94, A 239.: _{94}^{239}\textrm{Pu}

Notice that "SO4" appears in two different places in this chemical equation. SO42− is a polyatomic ion called "sulfate." What nu
vichka [17]

Answer:

3.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, it is convenient to write the chemical reaction as:

CaSO_4+AlCl_3\rightarrow CaCl_2+Al_2(SO_4)_3

Which balanced turns out:

3CaSO_4+2AlCl_3\rightarrow 3CaCl_2+Al_2(SO_4)_3

Thus the number that should be in front of the calcium sulfate is 3 in order to balance the reaction.

Best regards.

What combination of forces was the closest match? Why?
Virty [35]

Answer: COMBINED FORCES

When forces act in the same direction, they combine to make a bigger force. When they act in opposite directions, they can cancel one another out. If the forces acting on an object balance, the object does not move, but may change shape.
