Which postmortem parameter is fixed by 8 hours?

Chemistry
1 answer:
lara [203]3 years ago

Answer:

Algor mortis is the change which is an immediately sign of death. It involves the cooling of body. The body temperature decreases as the body after death looses the control over the circulation and exchange of gases and the control over the homeostasis. The temperature decreases until the body attains equilibrium with the external environmental temperature. The postmortem cooling or algor mortis gets fixed by 8- 10 hours after death. The temperature of the body after death can be used to determine the time since death. This can be measured by determining the temperature of the rectum which is proved to be most accurate or any other orifice such as nasal, ear and vaginal can also be used.

Answer:

<em />

  • <em>19. C₂H₂, HF, and H₂O₂ are molecular compounds</em>

<em />

  • <em>20. The formula is CuSO₄. 5H₂O</em>

Explanation:

<u><em>Question 19.</em></u>

The three the chemical formulae in red, C₂H₂, HF, and H₂O₂, represent compounds because a compound is the chemical union of two or more atoms of different kind.

The chemical union is done either by ionic bonds or covalent bonds.

C, H, F, and O are all non-metal elements. Non-metals combine each other through covalent bonds, which is the bond in which electrons are shared to complete the valence shell. Ionic bonds are formed by the electrostatic atraction between ions of different charge and is typical of the bond between a metal and a non-metal.

Thus, all the bonds are covalent and the compounds are molecular compounds.

<em></em>

<u><em>Question 20. </em></u>

<em></em>

You can determine the chemical formula using the molar masses of both Copper(II) sulfate and water.

  • Molar mass of copper(II) sulfate: 159.609 g/mol
  • Molar mass of water: 18.015 g/mol

Call n the number of water molecules in the molecular formula:

  • CuSO₄ . nH₂O

The ratio of water to copper(II) sulfate is:

  • n × molar mass of water / molar mass of the compound
  • n × 18.015 / (n × 18.015 + 159.609) = 36%
  • 18.015n = 0.36(18.015n + 159.609)
  • 18.015n = 6.4854n + 57.45924
  • 11.5296n = 57.45924
  • n = 4.9836 ≈ 5

Therefore, the formula of the hydrate contains 5 molecules of water and it is CuSO₄.5H₂O.

What results from a reaction of a base and a hydronium ion.
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

An acid

Explanation:

» The reaction of any hydrogen ion or hydroxonium ion with a base results into an acidic solution.

For hydrogen ions:

{ \rm{H {}^{ + }_{(aq)} +  Cl {}^{ - } _{(aq)} \:  \dashrightarrow \: HCl _{(aq)}  }}

For hydroxonium ions:

{ \rm{H _{3} O {}^{ + } _{(aq)}  +Cl {}^{ - }  _{(aq)} \:  \dashrightarrow \:HCl _{(aq)}   +  H _{2} O _{(l)}}}

VladimirAG [237]
To determine the concentration of the solution of sulfuric acid, the chemist should perform titration with the use of 1.0 M NaOH. This is the answer in the space provided. The 1.0 M NaOH is suitable in the titration because it is a base, which is used in titration in order to determine the unknown concentration.
