Answer is: carbon dioxide (CO₂) can affect the end point of the titration.

Carbon dioxide, or carbon(IV) oxide, reacts with water and form carbonic acid, which can affect the end point of the titration, because more base is needed for neutralization of partially neutralized stomach acid.

Balanced chemical reaction of carbon dioxide and water: CO₂ + H₂O → H₂CO₃.

A solution of NaOH is titrated with H2SO4. It is found that 20.05 mL of 0.3564 M H2SO4 solution is equivalent to 43.42 mL of NaO

Darya [45]

Answer : The concentration of NaOH is, 0.336 M

Explanation:

To calculate the concentration of base, we use the equation given by neutralization reaction:

$n_1M_1V_1=n_2M_2V_2$

where,

$n_1,M_1\text{ and }V_1$ are the n-factor, molarity and volume of acid which is $H_2SO_4$

$n_2,M_2\text{ and }V_2$ are the n-factor, molarity and volume of base which is NaOH.

We are given:

$n_1=2\\M_1=0.3564M\\V_1=20.05mL\\n_2=1\\M_2=?\\V_2=43.42mL$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$2\times 0.3564M\times 20.05mL=1\times M_2\times 43.42mL$

$M_2=0.336M$

Thus, the concentration of NaOH is, 0.336 M

) Any gas exerts a pressure against its surroundings. For example, if you put more gas in a balloon, it exerts more pressure and

kolezko [41]

Explanation:

As we know that molecules of a gas move far away from each other because they are held by weak Vander waal forces. So, when a balloon is filled by a gas then molecules of a gas strike at its walls leading to more number of collisions.

This will also lead to more expansion of the balloon. As we know that pressure is the force exerted n per unit area of a substance or object.

Thus, more is the kinetic energy of the molecules of the gas more will be the force exerted by them. Hence, more will be the pressure exerted.

Which action is an example of an organism maintaining homeostatis

VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

$\color{Blue}\huge\boxed{Answer}$

The body regulates those levels in an example of homeostasis. When levels decrease, the parathyroid releases hormones. If calcium levels become too high, the thyroid helps out by fixing calcium in the bones and lowering blood calcium levels. The nervous system helps keep homeostasis in breathing patterns.
