Cell death

Explanation:

If a cell is placed in an environment too acidic or basic, the cell will eventually die. A too acidic or basic environment leads to cell shrinkage and eventual death of the cell.

  • The pH of cells are buffered and they occur within a specific range.
  • Cells are typically designed to resist changes in pH conditions.
  • When a cell is placed in an acidic environment, there is movement of materials outwards from the cells.
  • This can eventually kill off the cell as the the life sustaining materials therein cannot function properly well again

Write a balanced chemical equation for the standard formation reaction of solid calcium hydroxide .
AveGali [126]

Calcium Hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) can actually be formed by the reaction of Calcium Oxide (CaO) with water (H2O). The complete balanced chemical reaction is:

<span>CaO  +  H2O  -->  Ca(OH)2</span>

 

<span>The subscript 2 in (OH) means that there are 2 O and 2 H on the product side. Hence, the equation is balanced already.</span>

An atom has 24 protons and 23 electrons and 28 neutrons what charge does this atom have?
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

1+

Explanation:

the number of protons tells you which element it is in the periodic table, you can notice that there is 1 less electron that then there is protons which means that the element had to give 1 electron away. When you get rid of 1 e- you have 1 proton more that electrons so that's why it's 1+

also the element is Cr

Carbon has a neutral overall charge, an atomic mass of about 12 and an atomic number of 6. How many electrons does carbon have?
Artist 52 [7]
For the atom to be neutral, it must have the same number of electrons and protons. The aromic number indicates the number of protons. Since Carbon has 6 protons, it would have to have 6 electrons for it to be neutral

Assume that 25 ml of 0.440M NaCl are added to 25 ml of 0.320M AgNO3.
Genrish500 [490]
The balanced chemical equation would be as follows:

<span>NaCl + AgNO3 -> NaNO3 + AgCl

We are given the amounts of the reactants. We need to determine first which one is the limiting reactant. We do as follows:

0.0440 mol/L NaCl (.025 L) = 0.0011 mol NaCl -----> consumed completely and therefore the limiting reactant
0.320 mol/L AgNO3 (0.025 L) = 0.008 mol AgNO3

0.0011 mol NaCl ( 1 mol AgCl / 1 mol NaCl) = 0.0011 AgCl precipitate produced
