Answer:

False hypermagnesaemia

Explanation:

Magnesium is predominantly an intracellular divalent action and it is important for optimal cellular function. It is an essential cofactor to many enzymes as well as being important for membrane function.

The body contain about 1 mol (approximately 25g) of magnesium.

Hemolyzed specimen will result in release of magnesium from intracellular to extracellular, causing elevation of the blood level of magnesium. This is a false hypermagnesaemia because it doesn't represent the real blood level.

When does heat naturally move from cooler objects to warmer objects
Blizzard [7]
<span>Conduction occurs when two object at different temperatures are in contact with each other. Heat flows from the warmer to the cooler object until they are both at the same temperature. Conduction is the movement of heat through a substance by the collision of molecules. At the place where the two object touch, the faster-moving molecules of the warmer object collide with the slower moving molecules of the cooler object. </span>

If a stock solution of 20.0 g of sugar per 100. ml of solution is available, how much of this stock is needed to prepare 10.0 ml
Vladimir79 [104]

You must use 2.50 mL of the concentrated solution to make 10.0 mL of the dilute solution.

We can use the dilution formula

<em>V</em>_1<em>C</em>_1 = <em>V</em>_2<em>C</em>_2

where

<em>V</em> represents the volumes and

<em>C</em> represents the concentrations

We can rearrange the formula to get

<em>V</em>_2 = <em>V</em>_1 × (<em>C</em>_1/<em>C</em>_2)

<em>V</em>_1 = 10.0 mL; <em>C</em>_1 = 5.00 g/100. mL

<em>V</em>_2 = ?; ____<em>C</em>_2 = 20.0 g/100. mL

∴ <em>V</em>_2 = 10.0 mL × [(5.00 g/100. mL)/(20.0 g/100. mL)] = 10.0 mL × 0.250

= 2.50 mL

In what way does the shape of a molecule affect how the molecule is
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

I'm not 100% sure, but B seems like the most likely answer because the shape of a molecule usually is a major factor in how molecules interact with each other.

I hope that helps.
