Livor mortis refers to the bluish-purple discoloration (lividity) under the skin of the lower body parts due to gravitation of blood after death. ... Dark pinpoint spots (Tardieu spots) are seen when capillaries rupture due to increased gravitational pressure (e.g. in the legs of a hanged person)

Explanation:  Lividity is unnatural color  or discoloration of the skin after death. It starts within 20-30 minutes of death, but is not visible by human eye until two hours. Amount of reduced haemoglobin determines the intensity of color. Capillaries bursts because of increased gravity.The body parts  which are in contact with any object or ground are not affected by this because capillaries are compressed.

A 100.0 ml sample of 0.20 m hf is titrated with 0.10 m koh. determine the ph of the solution after the addition of 200.0 ml of k
xeze [42]
The balanced equation for the reaction between KOH and HF is 
KOH + HF ---> KF + H₂O
stoichiometry of KOH to HF is 1:1
the number of HF moles reacted - 0.20 mol/L x 0.1000 L = 0.020 mol
the number of KOH moles reacted - 0.10 mol/L x 0.2000 L = 0.020 mol
KOH is a strong base and HF is a strong acid therefore they completely ionise into their corresponding ions
KOH --> K⁺ + OH⁻
HF ---> H⁺ + F⁻
number of H⁺ moles reacted = number of OH⁻ moles reacted
solution is completely neutralised no excess hydroxide or hydrogen ions
therefore when solution is neutral , pH = 7
pH of solution = 7

Calculate the moles of Cu in 7.4×1021 atoms of Cu.
IceJOKER [234]
1 moles -------- 6.02x10²³ atoms
 ?? moles ----- 7.4x10²¹ atoms

moles = 7.4x10²¹ / 6.02x10²³

 = 0.01229 moles

hope this helps!

What is the rate constant of a first-order reaction that takes 5.50 minutes for the reactant concentration to drop to half of it
bulgar [2K]
For a first order reaction, the half life is inversely proportional to the rate constant. 
The formula is
half life = ln(2)/k = 0.693/k
where k is the rate constant

t = 5.50 minutes

k = ln(2)/5.50 = 0.126 min^-1

Your rate constant is 0.126 min^-1.
