A client comes to the emergency department with status asthmaticus. His respiratory rate is 48 breaths/minute, and he is wheezin

g. An arterial blood gas analysis reveals a pH of 7.52, a partial pressure of arterial carbon dioxide (PaCO2) of 30 mm Hg, PaO2 of 70 mm Hg, and bicarbonate (HCO3??') of 26 mEq/L. What disorder is indicated by these findings?

Answer:

The disorder is called Respiratory alkalosis

Explanation:

A client with asthma can hyperventilate (excess of O2). This oxygen excess can lead also to a lack of carbon dioxide (CO2) (acid substance) which can causes alkalosis (increasing the pH values in blood and body).

In this medical condition (respiratory alkalosis), the bicarbonate (HCO3-) hosted in the kidneys has a late response, so the  HCO3- level  in the client remains normal.

The PaCO2 (partial pressure of arterial carbon dioxide) is low in comparison with normal values so that indicates loss of CO2 in the respiratory system.

How many moles of aspartame are present in 1.00 mg of aspartame?
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:- There are 3.40*10^-^6 moles.

Solution:- It is a unit conversion problem where we are asked to convert mg of aspartame to moles. Aspartame is C_1_4H_1_8N_2O_5 and it's molar mass is 294.31 grams per mole.

mg are converted to grams and then the grams are converted to moles as:

1.00mg Aspartame(\frac{1g}{1000mg})(\frac{1mole}{294.31g})

= 3.40*10^-^6 moles of aspartame

So, there would be 3.40*10^-^6 moles of aspartame in 1.00 mg of it.

If gas pressure is held constant and the temperature is decreased, gas volume will _____
saw5 [17]

Answer:

Increase

Explanation:

If temperature is held constant, the equation is reduced to Boyle's law. Therefore, if you decrease the pressure of a fixed amount of gas, its volume will increase.
