Biology
1 answer:
Pie3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

c. Bound to hemoglobin.

Explanation:

The oxygen is relatively insoluble in plasma. At normal atmospheric pressure, only 0,3% of oxygen dissolves. That why there are respiratory pigments that <u>elevate almost 70 times</u><u> the capacity to transport O₂ of blood</u>. The most common respiratory pigments are hemoglobin (in all vertebrates and some invertebrates) and hemocyanin (in mollusks and arthropods).

A certain buffer is made by mixing a weak acid HA and its conjugate base A–. When HA is present at a concentration of 0.5 mM and
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:The ratio of the concentrations of HA  and A^- when the buffer has a pH of 7.02 is 0.69

Explanation:

The dissociation constant for formic acid = K_a=1.8\times 10^{-4}

Concentration of HA= 0.5 mM

Concentration of A^-= 0.1 mM

pH = 6.16

First we have to calculate the value of K_a.

Using Henderson Hesselbach equation :

pH=pK_a+\log \frac{[A^-}{[HA]}

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

6.16=pK_a+\log (\frac{[0.1]}{0.5})

pK_a=6.86

To calculate the ratio of the concentrations of HA  and A^- when the buffer has a pH of 7.02.

Using Henderson Hesselbach equation :

7.02=6.86+\log \frac{[A^-]}{[HA]}

7.02=6.86+\log \frac{[A^-]}{[HA]}

\frac{[A^-]}{[HA]}=1.44

\frac{[HA]}{[A^-]}=0.69

Thus the ratio of the concentrations of HA  and A^- when the buffer has a pH of 7.02 is 0.69

The table below shows the number of the sub-atomic particles in an atom of nitrogen.
oee [108]

Answer:

14amu

Explanation:

Given subatomic particles:

  Number of protons  = 7

  Number of Neutrons  = 7

  Number of electrons  = 7

Unknown:

Atomic mass unit; amu of nitrogen

Solution:

The atomic mass unit of a substance is the number of protons and neutrons in such an atom;

     Atomic mass unit  = number of protons + number of neutrons

This is because the mass of an atom is concentrated in the nucleus;

   For the given specie;

        Atomic mass unit  = 7 + 7 = 14amu
