Which statement is true regarding carbonic acid (H 2CO 3)? If body fluids are too alkaline, carbonic acid is excreted through th

e respiratory system in the form of carbon dioxide and water. If body fluids are too alkaline, carbonic acid is retained through the respiratory system in the form of carbon dioxide and water. If body fluids are too acidic, carbonic acid is retained through the respiratory system in the form of carbon dioxide and water. If body fluids are too acidic, carbonic acid is excreted through the respiratory system in the form of carbon dioxide and water.

Answer:

the correct option is : If body fluids are too acidic, carbonic acid is excreted through the respiratory system in the form of carbon dioxide and water.

Explanation:

Metabolic acidosis is compensated by two systems, the renal and respiratory systems.

In the case of the respiratory system, the mechanism it uses to compensate for this phenomenon is to release the carbonic acid molecule dissociated into its components, that is, in the form of water and carbon dioxide.

The greater the acidosis, the more hyperventilation the person will have, and this is because they seek to eliminate carbonic acid more efficiently and quickly, along with renal excision.

The metabolic acidosis generated by carbonic acid is lethal, since the proteins in our body are denatured and the homeostasis of all systems is corrupted.

How many unit cells share an atom that is located at the center of a cube edge of a unit cell?
andre [41]

Answer:

zero

Explanation:

In a unit cell, an atom that is located at the center of a cube edge is not involved in sharing unit cells because a central atom of a unit cell belongs to the entire cell and only to that unit cell of the lattice.

Hence, the center atom of a unit cell do not share any unit cell and the correct answer is "Zero".

2. Consider the reaction 2NO(g) + O2(g) → 2NO2(g) Suppose that at a particular moment during the reaction nitric oxide (NO) is r
vredina [299]

Answer :

(a) The rate of NO_2 formed is, 0.066 M/s

(b) The rate of O_2 formed is, 0.033 M/s

Explanation : Given,

\frac{d[NO]}{dt} = 0.066 M/s

The balanced chemical reaction is,

2NO(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2NO_2(g)

The rate of disappearance of NO = -\frac{1}{2}\frac{d[NO]}{dt}

The rate of disappearance of O_2 = -\frac{d[O_2]}{dt}

The rate of formation of NO_2 = \frac{1}{2}\frac{d[NO_2]}{dt}

As we know that,

\frac{d[NO]}{dt} = 0.066 M/s

(a) Now we have to determine the rate of NO_2 formed.

\frac{1}{2}\frac{d[NO_2]}{dt}=\frac{1}{2}\frac{d[NO]}{dt}

\frac{d[NO_2]}{dt}=\frac{d[NO]}{dt}=0.066M/s

The rate of NO_2 formed is, 0.066 M/s

(b) Now we have to determine the rate of molecular oxygen reacting.

-\frac{d[O_2]}{dt}=-\frac{1}{2}\frac{d[NO]}{dt}

\frac{d[O_2]}{dt}=\frac{1}{2}\times 0.066M/s=0.033M/s

The rate of O_2 formed is, 0.033 M/s

In a group 1 analysis, a student obtained a precipitate containing both AgCl and PbCh. Which of the following reagents would ena
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

We can separate AgCl and PbCl₂ by adding hot water.

Explanation:

In order to separate group one salts/ions is important to consider their solubility.

PbCl₂ is more soluble in water then AgCl and, when we increase water's temperature, PbCl₂ solubility icireases significantly. However, AgCl solubility does not change considerably.

Therefore, when we add hot water to the solution, the PbCl₂ will be dissolved and AgCl will remain as a precipitate.

Solid nickel reacts with aqueous lead (II) nitrate to form solid lead. What is the net ionic equation for this reaction? • Hint:
hammer [34]

Answer:

Pb²⁺(aq) --> Ni²⁺(aq)

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is given as;

Ni(s) + Pb(NO₃)₂(aq) --> Pb(s) + Ni(NO₃)₂(aq)

In writing the ionic equation, we break the aqueous compound into ions. The solid and liquid compounds are ignored.

We have;

Pb²⁺(aq)  + NO₃²⁻(aq) -->  Ni²⁺(aq)  + NO₃²⁻(aq)

Canceling the spectator ions;

Pb²⁺(aq) --> Ni²⁺(aq)
