Chemistry
1 answer:
larisa [96]3 years ago

Answer:

d) Make it flexible  

Step-by-step explanation:

Raw hides dry out to form a hard material that can decay with an offensive smell when they become wet.

Tanning converts the protein of the raw hide into a stable material that will stay flexible and not decompose when it gets wet.

a) is <em>wrong</em>. The purpose of tanning is to soften the leather.

b) is <em>wrong</em>. You smooth the leather manually with fine sandpaper.

c) is <em>wrong</em>. Tanning does not impart water resistance. It prevents the leather from putrefying when it does get wet.

Potassium iodide reacts with lead(II) nitrate in this precipitation reaction: 2 KI(aq) + Pb(NO3)2(aq) → 2 KNO3(aq) + PbI2(s) Wha
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

a. 174 mL

Explanation:

Let's consider the following reaction.

2 KI(aq) + Pb(NO₃)₂(aq) → 2 KNO₃(aq) + PbI₂(s)

We have 155.0 mL of a 0.112 M lead(II) nitrate solution. The moles of Pb(NO₃)₂ are:

0.1550 L × 0.112 mol/L = 0.0174 mol

The molar ratio of KI to Pb(NO₃)₂ is 2:1. The moles of KI are:

2 × 0.0174 mol = 0.0348 mol

The volume of a 0.200 M KI solution that contains 0.0348 moles is:

0.0348 mol × (1 L / 0.200 mol) = 0.174 L = 174 mL

Mengapa dinding kapilari darah berbeza berbanding dinding vena dan arteri​
olga55 [171]

Answer:

Kapilari lebih kecil dan paling banyak saluran darah, mereka membentuk sambungan antara vesel yang membawa darah dari pendengaran (arteri) dan vesel yang mengembalikan darah ke jantung (urat)

Fungsi utama kapilari ialah pertukaran bahan antara sel darah dan tisu.

Veins membawa darah ke arah jantung; selepas ia melewati kapilari dan masuk melalui urat terkecil (venules).

Arteri membawa darah dari jantung; arteri sistemik mengangkut darah oksigen dari ventrikel kiri ke tisu badan.

Explanation:

(translated version)

Why blood capillary walls differ from veins and arteries

Capillaries are smaller and the most numerous of the blood vessels, they form the connection between the vessels that carry blood away from the hear (arteries) and the vessels that return the blood to the heart (veins)

The primary function of the capillaries is the exchange of materials between the blood and tissue cells.

Veins carries the blood towards the heart; after it passes through the capillaries and enters through the smallest veins (venules).

Arteries carries blood away from the heart; systemic arteries transport oxygenated blood from the left ventricle to the body tissues.

A. 0.5 m/s<br>b. 0.75 m/s<br>c. 2 m/s<br>d. 3 m/s ​
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Option a. 0.5 m/s

Explanation:

This graph shows a straight line, where "Y" axis would be "Position" and "X" graph would be "Time". The ecuation that would describe this straight line is Y= aX + 1 , where "a" is the slope or inclination for this graph, and would give us the speed of the object

How do we find the slope (and hence, the speed)?: if you notice this graph, you will check that:

-When X (Time) is zero, Y (Position) is 1

-When X (Time) is 2, Y (Position) is 2

With these 4 points, you can calculate the slope (which will call "m") for this graph with:

m = (Y2-Y1)/(X2-X1)   so: Y2=2, Y1=1, X2=2, X1=0

Which gives us: m=1/2 (0.5), the slope or speed of the object: 0.5 m/s
