Answer:

Body tissues/hormones

Explanation:

Excluding water and fat, the human body is made up almost entirely of protein. Protein is the main component of muscles, bones, organs, skin, and nails. Excluding water, muscles are composed of about 80% protein, making this nutrient especially important for athletes.

1) Protein hormones (or polypeptide hormones) are made of chains of amino acids. An example is ADH (antidiuretic hormone) which decreases blood pressure. 2) Steroid hormones are derived from lipids.

You wish to prepare an HC2H3O2 buffer with a pH of 4.24. If the pKa of is 4.74, what ratio of C2H3O2 /HC2H3O2 must you use?
LenaWriter [7]

To solve this problem, we can use the Henderson-Hasselbalch Equation which relates the pH to the measure of acidity pKa. The equation is given as:<span>

<span>pH = pKa + log ([base]/[acid])                ---> 1</span></span>

Where,

[base] = concentration of C2H3O2 in molarity or moles

<span>[acid] = concentration of  HC2H3O2 in molarity or moles</span>

 

For the sake of easy calculation, let us assume that:

[base] = 1

[acid] = x

<span>
Therefore using equation 1,
4.24 = 4.74 + log (1 / x) 

<span>log (1 / x) = - 0.5

1 / x = 0.6065 </span></span>

x = 1.65<span>

The required ratio of C2H3O2 /HC2H3O2 <span>is 1:1.65 or 3:5. </span></span>

1. Describe how an acidic solution forms when HCl is mixed in water and how a basic solution forms when NaOH is mixed in water.
NeX [460]

Answer:

Dissociation

Explanation:

When HCl and NaOH are mixed with water, the HCl and NaOH molecules interacts with the water, forming what is known as ions. Ions are atoms with electric charge.

When HCl, it forms H+ and Cl-. The mixture is acid because what define a mixture as acid is the amount of H+ ions.

When NaOH mixes with water, it forms Na+ and OH- ions. The amount of OH- ions in a mixture defines it as basic.

A plot of 1/[BrO-] vs. time is linear and the slope is equal to 0.056 M-1s-1. If the initial concentration of BrO- is 0.65 M, ho
finlep [7]

Answer:

time taken for one-half of the BrO⁻ ion to react is t= 27.45 secs

Explanation:

equation of reaction

3BrO⁻(aq) → BrO₃⁻(aq) + 2Br⁻(aq) (second order reaction)

given

the slope of the graph is 0.056M⁻¹s⁻¹ = k(constant)

initial concentration [A]₀ = 0.65M

for second order reaction,we can calculate the time taken for one-half of the BrO- ion to react using:

\frac{1}{[A]} =\frac{1}{[A]}₀ ⁺ k × t

where initial concentration [A]₀ = 0.65M

[A] = [A]₀÷2 = 0.325M

\frac{1}{0.325M} = \frac{1}{0.65M} + 0.056M⁻¹s⁻¹ × t

3.077= 1.54 + 0.056t

3.077-1.54=0.056t

1.537=0.056t

t= 27.45 secs

Is the electronegativity of argon greater than sodium?
mixas84 [53]
Electronegativity refers to the ability of an atom to attract shared electrons in a covalent bond. The higher the value of the electronegativity, the more strongly that element attracts the shared electrons.
