Answer:
Nitrifying Bacteria are a group of aerobic bacteria important in the nitrogen cycle as converters of soil ammonia to nitrates, compounds usable by plants. An example is nitrosomonas or nitrobacter and species in that family.
The schematic diagram is attached below, which summarises the oxidation of ammonia or free nitrogen in the soil to nitrates for the cowpea plant's utilisation.
Answer:
t = 7.58 * 10¹⁹ seconds
Explanation:
First order rate constant is given as,
k = (2.303
/t) log [A₀]
/[Aₙ]
where [A₀] is the initial concentraion of the reactant; [Aₙ] is the concentration of the reactant at time, <em>t</em>
[A₀] = 615 calories;
[Aₙ] = 615 - 480 = 135 calories
k = 2.00 * 10⁻²⁰ sec⁻¹
substituting the values in the equation of the rate constant;
2.00 * 10⁻²⁰ sec⁻¹ = (2.303/t) log (615/135)
(2.00 * 10⁻²⁰ sec⁻¹) / log (615/135) = (2.303/t)
t = 2.303 / 3.037 * 10⁻²⁰
t = 7.58 * 10¹⁹ seconds
The kidneys will excrete increased quantities of acid.
Explanation:
The kidneys will excrete excess H+ ions in the blood (remember H+ ions are responsible for acidity) until the acid-base balance is restored in the blood. Bicarbonates, on the other hand, will be aggressively reabsorbed by the renal tubules as the excess H+ are being excreted.
The acid base balance is mainly determined by the quantities of H⁺ and HCO₃⁻ ions in teh blood. These ions come from the dissociation of carbonic acid formed when carbon dioxide from tissues is dissolved in blood plasma.
The equilibrium constant expression for KSP of Sr3(PO4)2 is
KSP={(Sr^2+)^3 (PO4^3-)^2/ Sr3(PO4)2}
Explanation
write the ionic equation for Sr3(PO4)2
Sr3(PO4)2 → 3Sr^2+ + 2 PO4^3-
KSP is given by (concentration of the products raised to their coefficient /concentration of reactants raised to their coefficient)
Answer:
A carboxylate salt and water
Explanation:
A carboxylic acid is an organic compound that has general formula RCOOH, where R is a carbon chain. Because it's an acid, the neutralization will happen when it reacts with a base, such as NaOH.
When this reaction occurs, the base will dissociate in Na⁺ and OH⁻, and the acid will ionize in RCOO⁻ and H⁺, so the products will be RCOO⁻Na⁺ (a carboxylate salt) and H₂O (water).
