Can You Tell? Pepsinogen is released in the stomach. Why can't it digest stomach walls?

Chemistry
1 answer:
miv72 [106K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Specific cells within the gastric lining, known as chief cells, release pepsin in an inactive form, or zymogen form, called pepsinogen. By doing so, the stomach prevents the auto-digestion of protective proteins in the lining of the digestive tract.

The volume of 7.91 M HCl needed to make 196.1 mL of 2.13 M HCl is ____.
Alona [7]

Answer:

a. 52.8

Explanation:

To find the number of moles of HCl we use the relation M₁V₁=M₂V₂

where M₁ is the initial molarity, M₂ the new molarity, V₁ the initial volume used, and V₂ the final volume obtained.

M₁=7.91 M

M₂=2.13 M

V₁=?

V₂=196.1 mL

Replacing these values in the relationship.

M₁V₁=M₂V₂

7.91 M× V₁=2.13 M×196.1 mL

V₁=(2.13 M×196.1 mL)/7.91 M

=52.8 mL

Luke and Sian want to plant a vegetable garden in their yard. A soil testing kit measures the soil pH at 5.0, but the lettuce th
dexar [7]

Answer:

So, Luke and Sian has to increase the pH of the soil by adding base to it.

Explanation:

The pH is defined as the negative logarithm of the hydrogen ion concentration in their aqueous solution.

pH=-\log[H^+]

  • With increase in hydrogen ion concentration the pH value decreases.
  • With decrease in hydrogen ion concentration the pH value increases.

The pH of the soil after testing it on a kit comes out be 5.0, but they both need pH of the soil to 6.5.

Comparison of pH of soil:

  =  5.0 < 6.5

= High hydrogen ion concentration > High hydrogen ion concentration

So, Luke and Sian has to increase the pH of the soil by adding base .Doing so will decrease the hydrogen ion concentration in the soil (where as addition of acid lower the pH of soil).

Given: logK=nE∘0.0592 What is the value K for this redox reaction? Zn2+(aq) + 2 Cl−(aq) → Zn(s) + Cl2(
anygoal [31]

<em>K</em> = 2.4 × 10^(-72)

<em>Step 1</em>. Determine the <em>value of n </em>

Zn^(2+) + 2e^(-) → Zn

2Cl^(-) → Cl_2 + 2e^(-)

Zn^(2+) + 2Cl^(-) → Zn + Cl_2

∴ <em>n</em> = 2

<em>Step 2</em>. Calculate <em>K</em>

log<em>K</em> = <em>nE</em>°/0.0592 V = [2 × (-2.12 V)]/0.0592 V = -71.62

<em>K</em> = 10^(-71.62) = 2.4 × 10^(-72)

How does a volcano form?
stealth61 [152]
A volcano is formed when magma (Lava) spews up from deep within the earth. After each eruption the Volcano gets bigger and bigger, so basically after periods of time the volcano will get larger. Lava will rise in cracks in the earth or weak spots in the earths crust. The pressure is relieved thus resulting in a volcanic eruptions it forms the new crust and then eventually builds up in that spot making a volcano. They also form in places called hot spots and various other places.
