Explanation:

All the elements of group 1 in the periodic table are known as alkali metals. These are lithium (Li), sodium (Na), potassium (K), rubidium (Rb), caesium (Cs), and francium (fr).

Characteristics of alkali metals are as follows.

  • Alkali metals are soft and can be cut with a knife.
  • They are good conductors of heat and electricity.
  • They have only 1 electron in their outermost sub-shell.
  • They are very reactive.
  • Alkali metals are ionic in nature.

Gennadij [26K]
First convert to moles:
0.5113 g / 17 g/mol = 0.0301 mol

Now create a ratio based on the reaction provided to solve for the unknown:

4 NH3 / -905.4 kJ = 0.0301 mol NH3 / x kJ
x = -6.808 kJ

A 28-kg child can consume a maximum of 23 children's acetaminophen tablets in an 8-h period without exceeding the safety-limit m
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

(b)90mg/lb

Explanation:

The child can consume a maximum of 23 tablets with 80mg of acetaminophen, the total acetaminophen ingest is:

23*80=1840mg

This value is for 8 hours, 8 hours is 1/3 of one day. This means that the dose that can be consumed in 24 hours is 3 times 1840mg.

1840*3=5520mg

To obtain the maximum allowable dose in mg per pound of body weight, divide this last value by the weight of the child in pounds.

Conversion of units: 28Kg(\frac{2.20lb}{1Kg} )=61.6lb

\frac{5520}{61.6} =89.61\approx90mg/lb

This increase in blood pHpH due to hyperventilation disrupts O2O2 transport by causing the deprotonation of various residues of
Genrish500 [490]

The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which has been provided in the attachment.

Answer:

1. sudden decrease

2. Respiratory alkalosis

Explanation:

Hyperventilation is a condition caused by the excess removal of the CO₂ from the blood which leads to the decrease in the pCO₂ of the arteries.

This decrease can cause fainting and death of the individual due to the malfunctioning of the body parts, especially the brain.

The decrease in the CO₂ amount of the blood causes the formation of bicarbonate and H⁺ ions which leads to respiratory alkalosis.

Therefore the selected options are correct.
