In 1676, Robert Plot discovered a large bone in a quarry in Cornwall, England. He observed that the bone looked similar to a hum

an femur, but it was much
too large. Plot did not know what to make of this new discovery and thought it was possibly from an elephant. Many years later, in 1815, William Buckland
located fossils similar to the one Robert Plot discovered. Buckland named these fossils Megalosaurus, meaning large lizard, based on the jawbones and teeth
he observed. Buckland's discoveries were the first scientific evidence that dinosaurs existed in the past.
How did this new evidence change how scientists viewed organisms from the past?

Wear _______________________ when handling batteries, because they can explode or leak.
Basile [38]

The answer is: b. Safety glasses and acid-resistant gloves.

Battery acid (sulfuric acid) has pH = 0.

Sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄) is a strong acid, it means that the solution of sufuric acid is more acidic (pH<7) than water (pH = 7).

Chemical dissociation of sulfuric acid in water:  

H₂SO₄(aq) → 2H⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq).  

Sulfuric acid can come in contact with eyes and hands, so it is important to wear safety glasses and acid-resistant gloves.

An industrial chemist is studying a sample of an unknown metal. Describe two ways he could change the metal physically and two w
Trava [24]

Answer:

Some of the physical changes used by the industrial chemist in order to identify it is by scratching it with other metals in order to find the hardness of it. Trying to deform it in order to find the malleability, and to heat it and measure the temperature in order to find the melting point.  

Some of the chemical changes used by the industrial chemist in order to identify it is by inserting it in water to observe that whether it reacts with it or not, if the reaction is violent, then the metal belongs to either group I or group II. The other method is to insert it in acids of distinct strength and to observe its reaction. The metals belonging to the second group react briskly with acids. The other metals react gradually with acids and others are almost inert.

Which of the following atoms has the greatest atomic radius? Oxygen (o) fluorine (F) Chlorine (CL) Carbon (C)
Andrei [34K]

Periodic Trend:

The Atomic radius of atoms generally decreases from left to right across a period

Group Trend:

The atomic radius of atoms generally increases from top to bottom within a group. As atomic number increases down a group, there is a increase in the positive nuclear charge, however the co-occurring increase in the number of orbitals wins out, increasing the atomic radius down a group in the periodic table

Answer :

The Atom with the greatest atomic radius is chlorine. Fluorine can be ruled out because it is in the same period as oxygen and further to the right down the period. Chlorine has the largest atomic size because it is farthest down the group of any of the above elements listed.

HW) Aspirin Poisoning
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

The answer is: the body contains chemicals called buffers that resist changes in pH

When you exercise vigorously, the muscle will produce more carbon dioxide which will makes the blood more acidic. Human blood have some mechanism that could prevent the blood pH to stray further from the optimal range. One of the buffer that keep carbon dioxide acidity would be sodium bicarbonate.

Pachacha [2.7K]
<h2><u>Full Question:</u></h2>

In hemoglobin, a single amino acid change at position 6 from Glu to Val has major consequences on hemoglobin structure that makes the molecule defective leading to sickle cell anemia. Predict whether the following hypothetical change would or would not have a major effect at position 6. Briefly explain (1-2 sentences). Glu to Leu Hint: Look at the structures of the R groups and consider their chemical properties

<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2>

The structure of the haemoglobin, hence the RBC won't be same as normal.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Both the leucine and glutamic acid are alpha amino acids which have an alpha carboxylic acid group and an alpha amino group. The variable in case of glutamic acid is propyl acid while the variable in case of leucine is isobutyl.

The glutamic acid is the normal amino acid of the 6th position of Beta chain of hemoglobin. Its an acid group, so can form bonds with another base inside the haemoglobin, or can form other hydrogen bonds. But the isobutyl group is an alkyl group. So it doesn't have that much effect in the recovering the structure, and sickle cell anemia prevails.
