Answer:by decreasing bicarbonate excretion and increasing acid excretion

Explanation:

The condition in which Carbondioxide, CO2 levels are high in the blood, the phenomenon is known as acidosis which is the opposite of alkalosis which is the decrease in Carbondioxide,CO2 level in the blood. In human blood, there is acid and there is base as well. Both acid and base present in human beings' blood must be balanced for proper functioning of the body system.

There are ways the organs in our bodies respond to deviations Which is the reason behind the kidney compensate by decreasing bicarbonate excretion and increasing acid excretion.

Elevated carbon dioxide mean too much acid in the blood. Increase acid excretion (intercalated cells secrete H+ into tubules) and decrease bicarbonate excretion. They also make new bicarbonate to add to the plasma.

Paladinen [302]

The sample having solid substance is considered as titanium.

<h3>Which sample was titanium?</h3>

That sample is considered as Titanium which is still present as a solid substance because all the other samples turns into liquid state due to high temperature.

While on the other hand, the sample which contains titanium has a solid particles and still solid on high temperature so we can conclude that the sample having solid substance is considered as titanium.

How many moles are in 4177g of aluminum chloride

Luden [163]

The mole is the unit of measurement in the International System of Units (SI) for amount of substance. It is defined as the amount of a chemical substance that contains as many representative particles, e.g., atoms, molecules, ions, electrons, or photons, as there are atoms in 12 grams of carbon-12 (12C), the isotope of carbon with relative atomic mass 12 by definition.
so to solve the moles, divide the mass with molar mass

moles = 4177 g / 133.34 g/mol
moles = 31.33 moles

Iteru [2.4K]

The metals will lose electrons while the non metals will gain electrons in order to attain octet structure.

An ion can be cation (positively charged) or anion (negatively charged).

Cations attain octet structure (8) by losing electron(s) while anions become stable or attains octet structure (8) by gaining electron(s).

The remaining elements are completed as follows to attain octet structure;

Element--valence electron--electrons to gain--electrons to lose--ion formed

O ------------ 6 ---------------------- 2 ------------------------ none -------------- $O^{2-}$

Ca -------- 2 ----------------------- none ---------------------- 2 ------------------ $Ca^{2+}$
