Answer:

The liver

Explanation:

The liver -

In human beings the location of liver is just in the upper right portion of the abdomen , exactly below the diaphragm .

Liver is present in specifically vertebrates , and is responsible for various metabolism , like producing hormones , decomposition of the red blood cells , regulating the storage of glycogen and the synthesis of proteins .

Liver is the main site for the process of gluconeogenesis , amino acid catabolism .

Liver is the very organ , that has full urea cycle .

Hence , from the given information of the question ,

The correct term is the liver .

Explain how intermolecular attractions between molecules influence the bulk of properties of a material
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

<em><u>Intermolecular forces determine bulk properties, such as the melting points of solids and the boiling points of liquids. Liquids boil when the molecules have enough thermal energy to overcome the intermolecular attractive forces that hold them together, thereby forming bubbles of vapor within the liquid.</u></em>

Se tiene una solución acuosa 2M de carbonato de potasio. Expresar su concentración en %p/v y Normalidad.
zepelin [54]

Answer:

Normalidad = 4N

%p/V = 27.6%

Explanation:

La solución 2M de carbonato de potasio contiene 2moles de carbonato por litro de solución. La normalidad son los equivalente de carbonato de potasio (2eq/mol) por litro de solución:

2moles * (2eq/mol) = 4eq / 1L = 4N

El porcentaje peso volumen es el peso de carbonato en gramos dividido en el volumen en mL por 100:

%p/V:

Masa K2CO3 -Masa molar: 138.205g/mol-

2moles * (138.205g/mol) = 276g K2CO3

Volumen:

1L * (1000mL/1L) = 1000mL

%p/V:

276g K2CO3 / 1000mL * 100

<h3>%p/V = 27.6%</h3>

What is the ph of a 0.25 m solution of c6h5nh2 given that its kb is 1.8 x 10-6?
IrinaK [193]

The pH a 0.25 m solution of C₆H₅NH₂ is equal to 3.13.

<h3>How do we calculate pH of weak base?</h3>

pH of the weak base will be calculate by using the Henderson Hasselbalch equation as:

pH = pKb + log([HB⁺]/[B])

pKb = -log(1.8×10⁻⁶) = 5.7

Chemical reaction for C₆H₅NH₂ is:

                          C₆H₅NH₂ + H₂O → C₆H₅NH₃⁺ + OH⁻

Initial:                     0.25                           0            0

Change:                    -x                             x             x

Equilibrium:        0.25-x                           x             x

Base dissociation constant will be calculated as:
Kb = [C₆H₅NH₃⁺][OH⁻] / [C₆H₅NH₂]

Kb = x² / 0.25 - x

x is very small as compared to 0.25, so we neglect x from that term and by putting value of Kb, then the equation becomes:

1.8×10⁻⁶ = x² / 0.25

x² = (1.8×10⁻⁶)(0.25)

x = 0.67×10⁻³ M = [C₆H₅NH₃⁺]

On putting all these values on the above equation of pH, we get

pH = 5.7 + log(0.67×10⁻³/0.25)

pH = 3.13

Hence pH of the solution is 3.13.
