Answer:

Explanation:

The fingerprints are produced from a layer in the skin called the papillary layer, which is a layer within the dermis layer of skin. It produces an extra thick layer to form the ridges of fingerprints.

Answer:

Dermis

Explanation:

The inner layer of skin is called the dermis. It is thicker and provides the protection and support that the skin provides the body. The two layers are separated by the basement membrane. Fingerprints are produced by the epidermis.

Suppose a group of volunteers is planning to build a park near a local lake. The lake is known to contain low levels of arsenic

ale4655 [162]

A) 10.75 is the concentration of arsenic in the sample in parts per billion .

B) 7,633.66 kg the total mass of arsenic in the lake that the company have to remove.

C)It will take 1.37 years to remove all of the arsenic from the lake.

Explanation:

A) Mass of arsenic in lake water sample = 164.5 ng

The ppb is the amount of solute (in micrograms) present in kilogram of a solvent. It is also known as parts-per million.

To calculate the ppm of oxygen in sea water, we use the equation:

$\text{ppb}=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}}{\text{Mass of solution}}\times 10^9$

Both the masses are in grams.

We are given:

Mass of arsenic = 164.5 ng = $164.5\times 10^{-9} g$

$1 ng=10^{-9} g$

Volume of the sample = V = $15.3 cm^3$

Density of the lake water sample ,d= $1.00 g/cm^3$

Mass of sample = M = $d\times V=1.0 g/cm^3\times 15.3 cm^3=15.3 g$

$ppb=\frac{164.5\times 10^{-9} g}{15.3 g}\times 10^9=10.75$

10.75 is the concentration of arsenic in the sample in parts per billion.

Mass of arsenic in $1 cm^3$ of lake water = $\frac{164.5\times 10^{-9} g}{15.3}=1.075\times 10^{-8} g$

Mass of arsenic in $0.710 km^3$ lake water be m.

$1 km^3=10^{15} cm^3$

Mass of arsenic in $0.710\times 10^{15} cm^3$ lake water :

$m=0.710\times 10^{15}\times 1.075\times 10^{-8} g=7,633,660.130 g$

1 g = 0.001 kg

7,633,660.130 g = 7,633,660.130 × 0.001 kg=7,633.660130 kg ≈ 7,633.66 kg

7,633.66 kg the total mass of arsenic in the lake that the company have to remove.

Company claims that it takes 2.74 days to remove 41.90 kilogram of arsenic from lake water.

Days required to remove 1 kilogram of arsenic from the lake water :

$\frac{2.74}{41.90} days$

Then days required to remove 7,633.66 kg of arsenic from the lake water :

$=7,633.66\times \frac{2.74}{41.90} days=499.19 days$

1 year = 365 days

499.19 days = $\frac{499.19}{365} years = 1.367 years\approx 1.37 years$

Company claims that it takes 2.74 days to remove 41.90 kilogram of arsenic from lake water.

Days required to remove 1 kilogram of arsenic from the lake water :

$\frac{2.74}{41.90} days$

Then days required to remove 7,633.66 kg of arsenic from the lake water :

$=7,633.66\times \frac{2.74}{41.90} days=499.19 days$

1 year = 365 days

499.19 days = $\frac{499.19}{365} years = 1.367 years\approx 1.37 years$

It will take 1.37 years to remove all of the arsenic from the lake.

In animals, nitrogenous wastes are produced mostly from the catabolism of _____. In animals, nitrogenous wastes are produced mos

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

Proteins and nucleic acids

Explanation:

Nitrogen compounds in animals that are no longer of use, or are in access are excreted from the animals body, and are thus called nitrogenous waste. These nitrogenous waste can be excreted in three different ways.

1. Ammonia

2. Urea

3. Uric acid

An unknown compound is processed using elemental analysis and found to contain 117.4g of platinum 28.91 carbon and 33.71g nitrog

dlinn [17]

Answer:

1 mole of platinum

Explanation:

To obtain the number of mole(s) of platinum present, we need to determine the empirical formula for the compound.

The empirical formula for the compound can be obtained as follow:

Platinum (Pt) = 117.4 g

Carbon (C) = 28.91 g

Nitrogen (N) = 33.71 g

Divide by their molar mass

Pt = 117.4 / 195 = 0.602

C = 28.91 / 12 = 2.409

N = 33.71 / 14 = 2.408

Divide by the smallest

Pt = 0.602 / 0.602 = 1

C = 2.409 / 0.602 = 4

N = 2.408 / 0.602 = 4

The empirical formula for the compound is PtC₄N₄ => Pt(CN)₄

From the formula of the compound (i.e Pt(CN)₄), we can see clearly that the compound contains 1 mole of platinum.

If you had 15 molecules of H2 and an unlimited supply of N2, how many

Masja [62]

Answer:

10 molecules of NH₃.

Explanation:

N₂ + 3H₂ --> 2NH₃

As the N₂ supply is unlimited, what we need to do to solve this problem is convert molecules of H₂ into molecules of NH₃. To do so we use the stoichiometric coefficients of the balanced reaction:

15 molecules H₂ * $\frac{2moleculesNH_3}{3moleculesH_2}$ = 10 molecules NH₃

10 NH₃ molecules could be prepared from 15 molecules of H₂ and unlimited N₂.
