Answer:
True.
Explanation:
Yes, analyses of enzymes found in the blood are used as indicators of tissue damage in the heart, liver, muscle etc has occurred. This leakage of enzymes into the bloodstream tells us whether the tissue is damaged or not. Lactate dehydrogenase is a type of enzyme which is used as indicator which is responsible for the interconverts lactate and pyruvate. The concentration of this enzyme in the blood tells us about tissue damage.
Two types of stoichiometry are; molar mass and coefficients from balanced equation.
Answer:
- <em>Oxidation half-reaction</em>:
Fe²⁺(aq) → Fe³⁺(aq) + 1e⁻
- <em>Reduction half-reaction</em>:
Ce⁴⁺(aq) + 1e⁻ → Ce³⁺(aq)
Explanation:
The reaction that takes place is:
- Fe²⁺(aq) + Ce⁴⁺(aq) → Fe³⁺(aq) + Ce³⁺(aq)
The <em>oxidation half-reaction</em> is:
- Fe²⁺(aq) → Fe³⁺(aq) + 1e⁻
It is an oxidation because the oxidation state of Fe increases from 2+ to 3+.
The <em>reduction half-reaction</em> is:
- Ce⁴⁺(aq) + 1e⁻ → Ce³⁺(aq)
It is a reduction because the oxidation state of Ce decreases from 4+ to 3+.
An artery carries blood away from the heart, a vein carries blood to the heart.
Answer:
pH = 3.49
Explanation:
We have a buffer system formed by a weak acid (HNO₂) and its conjugate base (NO₂⁻ coming from KNO₂). We can calculate the pH of a buffer ssytem using the Henderson-Hasselbach equation.
pH = pKa + log [base] / [acid]
pH = -log Ka + log [NO₂⁻] / [HNO₂]
pH = -log 4.50 × 10⁻⁴ + log 0.290 M / 0.210 M
pH = 3.49
