Answer:

d. white blood cells

Explanation:

It is the white blood cells that have the least tendency to cross the blood- brain barrier.

Blood- brain barrier is psychological barrier and restricts substances that circulate into the blood from crossing over the central nervous system.

Water, glucose as well as sodium ions can easily cross the barrier. As these are good for body supply energy to the brain.

How many moles of H2 are in a flask with a volume of 2500 mL at a pressure of 30.0 kPa and a temperature of 27oC?
quester [9]

Answer:

0.0300 moles of H₂

Explanation:

The original equation is PV = nRT. We need to change this to show moles (n).

n = \frac{PV}{RT}

It's important to convert your values to match the constant (r) in terms of units.

30.0 kPa = 0.296 atm

2500 mL = 2.50 L

27 °C = 300 K

Now, plug those values in to solve:

n = \frac{(0.296)(2.50)}{(0.0821)(300)}    -  for the sake of keeping the problem clean, I didn't include the units but you should just to make sure everything cancels out :)

Finally, you are left with n = 0.0300 moles of H₂

A 14.60g sample of an unknown compound, composed only of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, produced 28.6g of CO2 and 14.6g of H2O in
o-na [289]

Answer: The empirical formula for the given compound is C_{2}H_{5}O

Explanation:

The chemical equation for the combustion of compound having carbon, hydrogen and oxygen follows:

C_xH_yO_z+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O

where, 'x', 'y' and 'z' are the subscripts of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen respectively.

We are given:

Mass of CO_2=28.6g

Mass of H_2O=14.6g

We know that:

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

For calculating the mass of carbon:

In 44 g of carbon dioxide, 12 g of carbon is contained.

So, in 28.6 g of carbon dioxide, \frac{12}{44}\times 28.6=7.8g of carbon will be contained.

For calculating the mass of hydrogen:

In 18 g of water, 2 g of hydrogen is contained.

So, in 14.6 g of water, \frac{2}{18}\times 14.6=1.6 of hydrogen will be contained.

For calculating the mass of oxygen:

Mass of oxygen in the compound = (14.60) - (7.8 + 1.6) = 5.2 g

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

Step 1: Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Carbon =\frac{\text{Given mass of Carbon}}{\text{Molar mass of Carbon}}=\frac{7.8g}{12g/mole}=0.65moles

Moles of Hydrogen = \frac{\text{Given mass of Hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of Hydrogen}}=\frac{1.6g}{1g/mole}=1.6moles

Moles of Oxygen = \frac{\text{Given mass of oxygen}}{\text{Molar mass of oxygen}}=\frac{5.2g}{16g/mole}=0.32moles

Step 2: Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 0.32 moles.

For Carbon = \frac{0.65}{0.32}=2.03\approx 2

For Hydrogen  = \frac{1.6}{0.32}=5

For Oxygen  = \frac{0.32}{0.32}=1

Step 3: Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of C : H : O = 2 : 5 : 1

Hence, the empirical formula for the given compound is C_{2}H_{5}O_{1}=C_{2}H_{5}O

I2 + Ti+4 ----> Ti + IO3- reducing agent
Schach [20]

In order to identify the reducing agent let us check the oxidation states

I2 + Ti+4 ----> Ti + IO3- reducing agent

I2 : oxidation state of I = 0

Ti^+4 = oxidation state of Ti = +4

Ti : oxidation state = 0

IO3^-1 , oxidation state of Iodine = +5

So here the Ti undergoes reduction hence it is oxidizing agent

Where iodine undergoes oxidation hence it is reducing agent
