Chemistry
1 answer:

The correct answer is the bicarbonate buffer system.  

The bicarbonate buffer system refers to an acid-base homeostatic mechanism taking part in the balance of bicarbonate ion, carbonic acid, and carbon dioxide in order to sustain the pH in the duodenum and blood, among other tissues, to support the entire metabolic activities.  

The bicarbonate buffer system plays a vital role in the human body systems. In the duodenum and the stomach, the bicarbonate buffer system functions to both neutralize gastric acid and steady the intracellular pH of epithelial cells through the secretion of bicarbonate ion into the gastric mucosa.

You are a chemist working in your laboratory. In your storage closet you have a cabinet that holds only samples of pure elements

Answer:

Mercury

Explanation:

While it is true that most metals are solid at room temperature, mercury is liquid at room temperature hence mercury is often designated as the 'liquid metal'.

Thus, if i find a bottle on the shelf that has no solid in it, only liquid and i know that only pure metals are stored in that area of the laboratory, then i will quickly relabel it as mercury.

Why neon is special from other chemical elements​
kupik [55]
Noble gases react very unwillingly, because the outermost shell of electrons orbiting the nucleus is full, giving these gases no incentive to swap electrons with other elements. As a result, there are very few compounds made with noble gases. Like its noble gas comrades, neon is odorless and colorless.

Please help with this lab !

To get out the iron filings put everything in to a container and then put the magnet to the side to attract them. Pull them out of the container. Then, I don’t know how to separate the sand and salt. Maybe evaporate the salt? I joke you can figure it out. Best of luck! :)
