I think the answer must be B, although A is technically somewhat true too. Though the liver can regulate acid secretion, thus helping to balance the pH of blood by increasing or decreasing the acid secretion (can rid the body of excess acid through urine), the question doesn't specify that it balances the pH levels of BLOOD, and equally, multiple factors in the body have a role in balancing bodily pH levels, thus it is not the primary function of the liver. Thus, it must be B. The cells in the liver release an enzyme called renin, which activates angiotensin, which in turn activates the hormone aldostrene, which controls salt retention and elimination of potassium in the kidneys, thus affecting blood pressure and fluid balance.

Answer:
0.056moles HF and 0.70M
Explanation:
When a strong acid is added to a buffer, the acid reacts with the conjugate base.
In the system, NaF and HF, weak acid is HF and conjugate base is NaF. The reaction of NaF with HCl (Strong acid) is:
NaF + HCl → HF + NaCl
Initial moles of NaF and HF in 60.0mL of solution are:
NaF:
0.0600L × (0.80mol / L)= 0.048 moles NaF
HF:
0.0600L × (0.80mol / L)= 0.048 moles HF
Then, the added moles of HCl are:
0.0200L × (0.40mol / L) = 0.008 moles HCl.
Thus, after the reaction, moles of HF produced are 0.008 moles + the initial 0.048moles of HF, moles of HF are:
<em>0.056moles HF</em>
<em></em>
In 20.0mL + 60.0mL = 80.0mL = 0.0800L, molarity of HF is:
0.056mol HF / 0.0800L = <em>0.70M</em>
Answer:
You see, plants need energy to grow and grow and grow. They use energy from sunlight to make a simple sugar, glucose. Whenever the plant needs energy, it can chomp a little glucose off of the starch.
without energy it wont get energy/food so it will eventually die
Explanation:
Answer:
C) It explains why mass is conserved
Explanation:
The experimental studies carried out by Antoine Laurent Lavoisier led him to conclude that in a chemical reaction, which takes place in a closed system, the sum of the masses of the reagents is equal to the sum of the masses of the products, as in the following scheme:
m (reagents) = m (products)
* Where m represents mass
Thus, for example, when 4 grams of hydrogen (H) react with 16 grams of oxygen (O), 20 grams of water (H₂O) are formed.
So also if 14 grams of carbon (C) react with 34 grams of oxygen, 48 grams of carbon dioxide (CO₂) are formed.
In short, the law of conservation explains that the proportion, by mass, of the elements that participate in the composition of a substance is always constant and does not depend on the chemical process by which the substance is obtained.
