Answer:

Nitropruside

Explanation:

Shock is a serious medical condition where oxygen levels in the body are low,  causing a low blood pressure which can lead to organ damage and sometimes death. Shock can be caused by low blood volume or inadequate pumping action of the heart.

Nitropruside is a very potent vasodilator. It acts on the arterial and venous smooth muscles, causing smooth muscle relaxation and leading to decreased cardiac preload and afterload. A reduction in afterload gives rise to an increased cardiac output and blood supply to the cells is increased. This in turn reduces the need for the heart to pump more blood (a compensatory response by the heart due to the low oxygen levels), thereby reducing the oxygen demand of the heart.

1.<br> Draw the Dot Structure for Na!
stepladder [879]

Answer:

Na ·

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the Lewis dot structure of any element illustrates the number of valence electrons at the outer shell; we can set up the electron configuration of sodium to obtain:

Na^1^1\rightarrow 1s^2,2s^2,2p^6,3s^1

We can see there is only one valence electron, for that reason the Lewis dot structure is:

Na ·

Whereas the dot represents the valence electron.

Best regards!

How man grams of cl2 are consumed to produce 12.0 g of KCl
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

5.71 g

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation

2 K + Cl₂ ⇒ 2 KCl

Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 12.0 g of KCl

The molar mass of KCl is 74.55 g/mol.

12.0 g × 1 mol/74.55 g = 0.161 mol

Step 3: Calculate the moles of Cl₂ needed to produce 0.161 moles of KCl

The molar ratio of Cl₂ to KCl is 1:2. The moles of Cl₂ needed are 1/2 × 0.161 mol = 0.0805 mol

Step 4: Calculate the mass corresponding to 0.0805 moles of Cl₂

The molar mass of Cl₂ is 70.91 g/mol.

0.0805 mol × 70.91 g/mol = 5.71 g

What information does the third quantum number of an electron give? A. The direction the electron in spinning B. The energy leve
Juli2301 [7.4K]

The information that the third quantum number of an electron gives is the direction the electron in spinning. That is option A.

<h3>What are quantum numbers?</h3>

Quantum number are those numbers that are used to specify the properties of the atomic orbitals and the electrons in those orbitals.

The types of quantum numbers include the following:

  • principal,

  • azimuthal,

  • magnetic, and spin.

The third quantum number is shows the direction of the electron while spinning through specifying its angular momentum.
