Answer:

$m=243.72g$

Explanation:

Hello,

For the given chemical reaction:

$CaO(s) + 3 C(s) \rightarrow CaC_2(s) + CO(g)$

Whose heat of reaction is 464.8 kJ/mol which means that energy is absorbed due to the chemical reaction, we can compute the moles of calcium carbide via the following relationship:

$n=\frac{1770kJ}{464.8 kJ/mol}\\ \\n=3.81mol$

Then, since the molar mass of calcium carbide is 64 g/mol, the yielded mass turns out:

$m=3.81mol*\frac{64g}{1mol}\\ \\m=243.72g$

Best regards.

Answer: The molecules of oxygen gas that will be reduced to water are 42 molecules

Explanation:

We are given:

$E^o_{(NO_2^-/NH_4)}=-0.41V\\E^o_{(O_2/H_2O)}=0.82V$

The substance having highest positive $E^o$ potential will always get reduced and will undergo reduction reaction. Here, oxygen will undergo reduction reaction will get reduced.

$NH_4$ will undergo oxidation reaction and will get oxidized.

Substance getting oxidized always act as anode and the one getting reduced always act as cathode.

The half reactions follows:

Oxidation half reaction: $NH_4\rightarrow NO_2^-+6e^-$ ( × 4)

Reduction half reaction: $O_2+4e^-\rightarrow 2H_2O$ ( × 6)

Overall reaction: $4NH_4+6O_2\rightarrow 4NO_2^-+12H_2O$

We are given:

Molecules of $NH_4$ = 28

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

4 molecules of $NH_4$ reacts with 6 molecules of oxygen gas

So, 28 molecules of $NH_4$ will react with = $\frac{6}{4}\times 28=42$ molecules of oxygen gas

Hence, the molecules of oxygen gas that will be reduced to water are 42 molecules

An individual is hospitalized and the initial blood work indicates high levels of $HCO_{3} ^{-}$ in the blood and a pH of 7. 47. This would indicate the individual probably has compensated respiratory acidosis.

A chronic illness usually leads to compensated respiratory acidosis because the kidneys have time to adjust to the delayed onset. Even if the $PCO_{2}$ is elevated in a compensated respiratory acidosis, the pH is within the usual range.

The kidneys counteract a respiratory acidosis by increasing the amount of $HCO_{3}$ that tubular cells reabsorb from the tubular fluid, the amount of $H^{+}$ that collecting duct cells secrete while also producing $HCO_{3}$ , and the amount of $NH_{3}$ buffer that is formed through ammoniagenesis.

Respiratory acidosis is frequently brought on by hypoventilation as a result of: breathing depression , paralysis of the respiratory muscles, diseases of the chest wall , abnormalities of the lung parenchyma and abdominal squeezing.

sattari [20]

Answer

False

Explanation

Specific heat is the amount of heat per unit mass required to rise the temperature of a substance by one degree celsius.It is expressed in units of thermal energy per degree temperature.A calorimeter is used when measuring the heat capacity of a reaction.Molar heat capacity is amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance by one degree Celsius.
