What is tetanus? What are the symptoms and consequences of the disease? Who is at risk of developing tetanus? How do vaccines wo

rk? What is the history of the tetanus vaccine? Who should receive the tetanus vaccine? When should people receive the tetanus vaccine? Why is this schedule important? Has there been a change in tetanus incidence in the United States since the vaccine became available? What are the risks of vaccination versus non-vaccination? Do the risks outweigh the benefits? Are there areas in the world in which tetanus is prevalent? If so, does this affect the recommendations for US vaccination?

Answer:

The tetanus vaccine is a dose of the bacterium Clostridium Tetani, in inactive form or even a surface molecule that helps the body to actively form the antibody.

The tetanus vaccine has coverage for life, it is mandatory in those countries where the disease became common, such as the USA, Argentina, Chile, Uruguay among others.

Before a surgical act or a suspicion of exposure with this bacterium, the booster of the tetanus vaccine should be administered quickly.

Explanation:

Tetanus disease generates a tetanization of all the muscles of the organism, generating spasmodic contractions, which make it impossible to function and develop life when it affects the diaphragm as it makes breathing impossible.

Tetanization does not affect differently in age or sex, it only consists of contamination with the bacteria to be sufficient.

The sources of contagion are areas of mud or earth, rusty cutting or sharp elements, and poorly hygienic or abandoned areas. In order for the bacteria to be transmitted or the transmission route to be fulfilled, there must be a lesion of loss of continuity of the epithelium or mucosa.

In this reaction, what roll does the lead (II) nitrate play when 50.0 mL of 0.100M iron (III) chloride are mixed with 50.0 mL of
Aloiza [94]

Answer: The roll of lead (II) nitrate is that it is a limiting reactant of the reaction.

Solution : Given,

Molarity of FeCl_3 = 0.1 M

Volume of FeCl_3 = 50.0 ml = 0.05 L     (1 L = 1000 ml)

Molarity of Pb(NO_3)_2 = 0.1 M

Volume of Pb(NO_3)_2 = 50.0 ml = 0.05 L

First we have to calculate the moles of FeCl_3 and Pb(NO_3)_2.

\text{ Moles of }FeCl_3=\text{ Molarity}\times \text{ Volume in L}

\text{ Moles of }FeCl_3=(0.100M)\times (0.05L)=0.005moles

\text{ Moles of }Pb(NO_3)_2=\text{ Molarity}\times \text{ Volume in L}

\text{ Moles of }Pb(NO_3)_2=(0.100M)\times (0.05L)=0.005moles

The balanced chemical reaction is,

2FeCl_3+3Pb(NO_3)_2\rightarrow 2Fe(NO_3)_3+3PbCl_2

From the balanced chemical equation, we conclude that

3 moles of lead nitrate react with 2 moles of ferric chloride.

Thus 0.005 moles of lead nitrate react with =\frac{2}{3}\times 0.005=0.0033 moles of ferric chloride.

Moles of ferric chloride will be left unreacted = 0.005 - 0.0033 =0.0017 moles

Limiting reagent is the reagent in the reaction which limits the formation of product.

Excess reagent is the reagent in the reaction which is in excess and thus remains unreacted.

Therefore, in the given reaction, lead nitrate is the limiting reagent and ferric chloride is the excess reagent.

need help plz !The reaction between hydrogen and nitrogen to give ammonium is a reversible reaction. if why or why not.Answer it
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

We get ammonia because the forward and reverse reactions are happening at the same rates.

If 3 mol of  

H

2

is mixed in a sealed vessel with 1 mol  

N

2

under suitable conditions then they will react to form ammonia  

N

H

3

:

N

2

+

3

H

2

→

2

N

H

3

At the start of the reaction the concentration of the  

N

2

and  

H

2

are high. As soon as some  

N

H

3

is formed the reverse reaction will start to occur:

2

N

H

3

→

N

2

+

3

H

2

The rate of the reaction depends on concentration so the forward reaction will be fast at first when the concentration of the reactants is high. It will slow down as their concentration decreases.

By the same reasoning the reverse reaction will be slow at first then increase. These two processes continue until a point is reached when the rates of the forward and reverse reactions are equal.

We now state that the reaction has reached equilibrium which we show by:

N

2

+

3

H

2

⇌

2

N

H

3

It is described as "dynamic" because the forward and reverse reactions are happening at the same time although the concentrations of all the species remain constant.

So although  

N

H

3

is constantly breaking down, more is being formed at a constant rate.

In the Haber Process the system is actually not allowed to completely reach equilibrium as the process is continuous, as described in Mukhtar's answer.
