Chemistry

Answer:

(<em>i) Concentrated HNO3 can be stored and transported in aluminium containers as it reacts with aluminium to form a thin protective oxide layer on the aluminium surface. This oxide layer renders aluminium passive. (ii) Sodium hydroxide and aluminium react to form sodium tetrahydroxoaluminate(III) and hydrogen gas.</em>

The level of toxins in the fish's cell is equivalent to the level of toxins in the water. Therefore, in order to reduce the toxins further, we should replace the now contaminated water with clean water. After the level of toxins in the fish's cell stops reducing, we replace the water with clean water once again.
