How does the alcohol enter the body? Describe the process. Where does most of the absorption take place?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Nata [24]2 years ago
3 0

Explanation: Once swallowed, a drink enters the stomach and small intestine, where small blood vessels carry it to the bloodstream. Approximately 20% of alcohol is absorbed through the stomach and most of the remaining 80% is absorbed through the small intestine.

Rank these acids according to their expected pKa values.ClCH2COOHClCH2CH2COOHCH3CH2COOHCl2CHCOOHIn order of highest pka to lowes
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

CH₃CH₂CH₂COOH > CH₃CH₂COOH > ClCH₂CH₂COOH  > ClCH₂COOH

Explanation:

Electron-withdrawing groups (EWGs) increase acidity by inductive removal of electrons from the carboxyl group.

Electron-donating groups (EDGs) decrease acidity by inductive donation of electrons to the carboxyl group.

  • The closer the substituent is to the carboxyl group, the greater is its effect.
  • The more substituents, the greater the effect.  
  • The effect tails off rapidly and is almost zero after about three C-C bonds.

CH₃CH₂-CH₂COOH —  EDG —                         weakest —  pKₐ = 4.82

      CH₃-CH₂COOH — reference —                                     pKₐ = 4.75

  ClCH₂-CH₂COOH — EWG on β-carbon— stronger —     pKₐ = 4.00

           ClCH₂COOH — EWG on α-carbon — strongest —  pKₐ = 2.87

Please calculate the mixed volume (Vmix) when 0.300 mol of ethanol and 0.200 mol of water are mixed. Hint: The partial molar vol
Grace [21]

Answer:

If we assume the molar volumes of water and ethanol 17.0 and 57.0 cm³/mol, respectively, Vmix = 20.5 cm³.

Explanation:

The molar volume of a substance is the ratio between the volume and the number of moles of the substance. It represents the volume that 1 mol of it occupies. Because we don't have access to page 24, let's assume the molar volumes of water and ethanol 17.0 and 57.0 cm³/mol, respectively.

The volume of mixture (Vmix) is the sum of the volume of each substance, which is the number of moles multiplied by molar volume, so:

Vmix = 0.300*57 + 0.200*17

Vmix = 17.1 + 3.4

Vmix = 20.5 cm³

If the distance between a point charge and a neutral atom and is multiplied by a factor of 5, by what factor does the force on t
dexar [7]

Given :

The distance between a point charge and a neutral atom and is multiplied by a factor of 5.

To Find :

By what factor does the force on the neutral atom by the point charge change.

Solution :

We know, electrostatic force between two object is directly proportional to product of charge and inversely proportional to distance between them.

Now, charge in neutral atom is 0 C.

So, the electrostatic force between two of them is also 0 N.

Therefore, by changing distance between the charge the forces did no change ( it remains zero).
