Answer:

True

Explanation:

Carbon dioxide is transported by the blood in the dissolved form. carbonic anhydrase is the enzyme which is a metalloenzyme having zinc at active site converts carbon dioxide into carbonic acid which dissolves in the blood.

Thus,  

H₂O (l) + CO₂ (g) ⇔ H⁺(aq) + HCO₃²⁻(aq)

The kidneys in the body help to control the acid base balance. The hydrogen ion secretion in the body leads to the generation and reabsorption of the bicarbonate ions to form carbon dioxide in order to nullify the effect of the acid generated and thus the pH of the blood is maintained.

Determine the [h3o+] of a 0.210 m solution of formic acid.
Nataly [62]
When the Pka for formic acid = 3.77
and Pka = -㏒ Ka 
   3.77 = -㏒ Ka
∴Ka = 1.7x10^-4 

when Ka = [H+][HCOO-}/[HCOOH]

when we have Ka = 1.7x10^-4 &[HCOOH] = 0.21 m
so by substitution: by using ICE table value
1.7x10^-4 = X*X / (0.21-X)
(1.7x10^-4)*(0.21-X) = X^2      by solving this equation for X

∴X = 0.0059
∴[H+] = 0.0059
∴PH= -㏒ [H+]
       = -㏒ 0.0059
       = 2.23

Write one paragraph!!!!!reasons why the minimum wage should be increased.
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

There are pros and cons, I will explain mostly pros. After all the pros outweigh the cons.

Explanation:

Increasing the minimum wage can be letting people work less or earn more. This can have a major impact on the economy in America. It can reduce poverty within some families households. A con concerning this though is that people who work for low pay can lose their jobs and their family can become poor. It can also affect the federal minimum wage.

How many moles of carbon dioxide gas should be produced when 10.0 g of C2H6 are combusted at STP?
Finger [1]

Answer:

                    0.665 moles of CO₂

Explanation:

                     The balance chemical equation for the combustion of Ethane is as follow:

                            2 C₂H₆ + 7 O₂ → 4 CO₂ + 6 H₂O

Step 1: <u>Calculate moles of C₂H₆ as;</u>

                              Moles  =  Mass  /  M.Mass

Putting values,

                              Moles  =  10.0 g / 30.07 g/mol

                              Moles  =  0.3325 moles

Step 2: <u>Calculate Moles of CO₂ as;</u>

According to balance chemical equation,

                    2 moles of C₂H₆ produced  =  4 moles of CO₂

So,

             0.3325 moles of C₂H₆ will produce  =  X moles of CO₂

Solving for X,

                      X  =  0.3325 mol × 4 mol ÷ 2 mol

                      X = 0.665 moles of CO₂
