What type of sweetener is used as a filler in pharmaceutical products such as pills because its gritty, hard crystals flow freel

y and are easily compacted for tablet pressing?

Answer:

Lactose is the sweetener that is used as a filler in tablets that makes compaction possible during tablet pressing.

Explanation:

<em>Lactose </em>is a naturally occurring large sugar molecule found in milk of mammals. It is composed of two simple sugars: <em>Glucose</em> and <em>Galactose</em>.

<em>Anhydrous Lactose</em> is produced by drying <em>lactose </em>solution on the surface of a heated drum. As a result small crystals of <em>anhydrous b-lactose</em> are formed with some<em> anhydrous a-lactose</em>. This anhydrous product has excellent compactability and high solubility due to its high <em>b-lactose</em> content. This highly compactable <em>lactose</em> powder is used in tablets for direct compression,

If you were to conduct an experiment to answer the question, "Does the volume of a caffeinated drink affect your reaction time?”
Ann [662]

Answer:

A Type of Drink

Explanation:

A controlled variable remains constant throughout the experiment.

In such experiment, you'd test the volume of one single caffeinated drink. You'd have to use the same type of drink every trial.

Automotive air bags inflate when sodium azide, NaN3, decomposes explosively to its constituent elements. How many moles of nitro
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

2.29 g of N2

Explanation:

We have to start with the <u>chemical reaction</u>:

NaN_3~->~Na~+~N_2

The next step is to <u>balance the reaction</u>:

2NaN_3~->~2Na~+~3N_2

We can continue with the <u>mol calculation</u> using the molar mass of

NaN_3 (65 g/mol), so:

3.55~g~NaN_3\frac{1~mol~NaN_3}{65~g~NaN_3}=0.054~mol~NaN_3

Now, with the<u> molar ratio</u> between NaN_3  and N_2  we can <u>calculate the moles</u> of N_2  (2:3), so:

0.054~mol~NaN_3\frac{3~mol~N_2}{2~mol~NaN_3}=0.0819~mol~N_2

With the molar mass of N_2 we can <u>calculate the grams</u>:

0.0819~mol~N_2=\frac{1~mol~N_2}{28~g~N_2}=2.29~g~N_2

I hope it helps!

20 ML of a gas at 200 K is heated until the new volume is 55ML what is the final temperature of the gas
MrRa [10]

Answer:

T2 = 550K

Explanation:

From Charles law;

V1/T1 = V2/T2

Where;

V1 is initial volume

V2 is final volume

T1 is initial temperature

T2 is final temperature

We are given;

V1 = 20 mL

V2 = 55 mL

T1 = 200 K

Thus from V1/T1 = V2/T2, making T2 the subject;

T2 = (V2 × T1)/V1

T2 = (55 × 200)/20

T2 = 550K
