Answer:

32 pounds

Explanation:

The amount of water in the 200 pound person is

200 * 60% = 200*0.6 = 120 pounds

Of the 120 pounds, a third of this is extracellular fluid, the amount of extracellular fluid is

120 / 3 = 40 pounds

20 % of this is in the blood, which amounts to

40 * 20% = 40 * 0.2 = 8 pounds

The rest is interstitial fluid, which is

40 - 8 = 32 pounds

Do you have to keep citing the same source
emmasim [6.3K]
I don't think so as long as you make it apparent that the information comes the same source. So citing over and over again is unnecessary as long as it's clear that the information is from the same website or source. If you can't make it clear that they are from the same website source, it would a safe choice to continue to cite to avoid allegations of plagiarism.

You are given five transparent objects: a calcite crystal, a diamond, a piece of window glass, a sample of quartz, and a piece o
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The calcite Crystal can be identified by carrying out an acid test on it. This is done by bringing it in contact with a weak acid which cause crack in it structure. Hence a little of carbondioxide gas is released.

Since diamond is the hardest object,it can be identified on a Mohs scale. Likewise it can be tested by bringing it in contact with a newspaper, if the letters on the paper are not seen, that shows it is a pure diamond.

Window glass is identified by the code on it.

While Quartz Crystal is identified by scratch test. When it is used to scratch all other softer stones and metal, it leaves mark on them.

7. Copper can be coated on the surface of iron but not on silver? why​
Lisa [10]

Answer:

Silver has greater electronegativity (pull on electrons) than copper, so it will be reduced rather than oxidized. Silver ions will plate out on copper metal. Sir the coating of iron with copper surface can be referred as IRON-COPPER PLATING.

Explanation:

Iron is used for the electroplating of so copper because iron falls above copper in the electrochemical series whereas silver will fall off below the copper in electrochemical series that makes it not reliable for the electroplating purpose
