Answer:

NaCl is salt. Salt is ionic. It breaks down water.

Answer:

Because it will cause you to urinate more

Explanation:

Salt like NaCl will turn into ion when absorbed. These ions will increase the osmotic pressure of the blood and in turn, will takes water around. If the volume of blood keeps increasing, it will increase the burden of heart to pump blood too. Ion also can alter electrolyte concentration and This condition can be dangerous if left without a response. The human body will try to eliminate the NaCl by filtering it using a kidney. But NaCl will take away water molecule so it increases the volume of urine you produce.

If the concentration of NaCl from the solution you drink is higher than the concentration of NaCl of the urine, you remove more water via urine than gain it from drinking.

A brick has a mass of 4.0 kg and the Earth has a mass of 6.0 × 1027 g. Use this information to answer the questions below. Be su

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

a) $2.4\times 10^{24} kg$ is the mass of 1 mole of bricks.

b) $2.5\times 10^3$ moles of bricks have a mass equal to the mass of the Earth.

Explanation:

a) Mass of brick = 4.0 kg

1 mole = $N_A=6.022\times 10^{23}$ particles/ atoms/molecules

Mass of $N_A$ bricks :

$=6.022\times 10^{23}\times 4.0 kg=2.4088\times 10^{24} kg\approx 2.4\times 10^{24} kg$

$2.4\times 10^{24} kg$ is the mass of 1 mole of bricks.

Mass of the Earth = M = $6.0\times 10^{27} kg$

Mass of 1 mole of brick = m= $2.4\times 10^{24} kg$

Let the moles of brick with equal mass of the Earth be x.

$m\times x=M$

$x=\frac{M}{m}=\frac{6.0\times 10^{27}kg}{2.4\times 10^{24} kg}=2.5\times 10^3$

$2.5\times 10^3$ moles of bricks have a mass equal to the mass of the Earth.
