How is the akin of frog similar to a fish​

Chemistry

mestny [16]3 years ago

Answer:

Have you ever touched a fish? Most fish will feel a bit rough - due to their scales. Some, like sharks, will feel like sandpaper. Even fish with small, smoother scales will feel a bit like that. Amphibians don’t have scales, and most species will be wet to some degree - they have to keep their skin moist or they’ll die. A few groups, like toads and newts, have rougher skin, which is heavier and thicker, which allows them to retain moisture better away from water.

Functionally, the big thing about amphibian skin is that it is semi-permeable. Amphibians can breathe through their skin - all amphibians can get some oxygen through their skin, but some species of salamanders get all their oxygen that way - they have no lungs or gills. The skin can also allow water in - sort of like a paper towel. The bad thing is that other chemicals can pass through the skin, too - pollutants and other chemicals tend to affect amphibians far more than they do other groups.

Amphibians also shed their skin - fish do not. People don’t tend to see frogs shedding their skin often, though, since they eat it to regain nutrients and other resources in the skin.

Finally, since amphibian skin offers no defense against predators in the way that scales do, and limited barrier against disease the way non-amphibian skin does (shedding helps), the skin of many amphibians contain toxins, and some of them have anti-fungal properties (typically due to symbiotic bacteria). Many species have evolved chemical defenses in the skin, while others have glands that produce toxins that can be secreted outside of the skin.

The skin can withstand dessication more than the fish.

They have moist skin used as respiratory surface during deep sleep / hibernation.

They have moist skin due to secretion of mucus by glands under the skin.

How many grams of NaCl are required to make 150.0 mL of a 5.000 m solution
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

The  grams   of NaCl  that are required  to  make  150.0 ml of  a  5.000 M  solution is  43.875 g


calculation

Step 1:calculate  the  number of moles

moles =  molarity  x volume  in L

volume  = 150 ml / 1000 = 0.15 L

= 0.15 L  x 5.000  M  = 0.75  moles

Step 2:  calculate mass

mass =  moles x  molar mass

molar mass  of NaCl = 23 + 35.5 = 58.5 mol /L


mass is therefore =0.75  moles  x 58.5  mol /l =43.875 g

Use the van der waals equation to calculate the pressure exerted by 1.335 mol of cl2 in a volume of 4.920 l at a temperature of
nika2105 [10]
<span>Van der waal or ideal eqn is given by PV = NRT; P = NRT/ V. Where N = 1.335 is the number of moles. T = 272K is temperature. V = 4.920L is the volume. And R = 0.08205L. Substiting the values into the eqn; we have, P = (1.331* 0.08205 * 272)/ 4.920 = 29.7047/ 4.920 = 6.03atm.</span>

lesya [120]

Answer: The products of the saponification of glyceryl tripalmitate (tripalmitin) are one molecule of glycerol and three molecules of sodium salt of palmitic acid.

Explanation:

A chemical reaction in which triglycerides react with sodium hydroxide and leads to the formation of one molecule of glycerol and three molecules of a salt of fatty acid is known as saponification.

For example, when tripalmitin reacts with sodium hydroxide then it leads to the formation of one molecule of glycerol and three molecules of sodium salt of palmitic acid.

The reaction equation is as follows.

   C_{51}H_{98}O_{6} + NaOH \rightarrow C_{3}H_{8}O_{3} + 3C_{16}H_{31}O_{2}Na^{+}

Thus, we can conclude that the products of the saponification of glyceryl tripalmitate (tripalmitin) are one molecule of glycerol and three molecules of sodium salt of palmitic acid.
