As with any drug, aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) must remain in the bloodstream long enough to be effective. Assume that the rem

oval of aspirin from the bloodstream into the urine is a first-order reaction, with a half-life of about 3 hours. The instructions on an aspirin bottle say to take 1 or 2 tablets every 4 hours. If a person takes 1 aspirin tablet, how much aspirin remains in the bloodstream when it is time for the second dose? (A standard tablet contains 400. mg of aspirin.)

Answer:

180 mg

Explanation:

For a first-order reaction, we can calculate the amount of aspirine (A) at a certain time (t) using the following expression.

A=A_{0}.e^{-k.t}

where,

k: rate constant

A₀: initial amount

If we know the half-life (t_{1/2}) we can calculate the rate constant.

k=\frac{ln2}{t_{1/2}} =\frac{ln2}{3h} =0.2h^{-1}

When t = 4 h and A₀ = 400 mg, A is:

A=400mg.e^{-0.2h^{-1}\times 4h} =180mg

For most atoms, a stable configuration of electrons is attained when the atom __________. hints hint 1. (click to open) for most
sveticcg [70]

Correct answer: has a completely filled outermost shell

Atoms of the element with complete outermost shells are stable. So, in order to attain stability the atom either loses electrons or gains electrons to completely fill the outermost shell. The stable electronic configuration for the s and p-block elements is exhibited by the noble gases or the group 8 elements. All the unstable atoms try to attain the electronic configuration of the nearest noble gas with completely filled outermost shell.

2.0 L of Carbon dioxide is heated from -25.0 °C to Standard Temperature.
RideAnS [48]

The final volume of the gas that was heated from -25.0 °C to standard temperature is 2.2L.

<h3>How to calculate volume?</h3>

The volume of a given gas can be calculated using the Charles law equation as follows:

V1/T1 = V2/T2

Where;

  • V1 = initial volume
  • V2 = final volume
  • T1 = initial temperature
  • T2 = final temperature

  • V1 = 2L
  • V2 = ?
  • T1 = -25°C + 273 = 248K
  • T2 = 273K

2/248 = V2/273

273 × 2 = 248V2

546 = 248V2

V2 = 546/248

V2 = 2.2L

Therefore, the final volume of the gas that was heated from -25.0 °C to standard temperature is 2.2L

The weight of a sack potato in india is 50kgf. will the weight increase or decrease in bhutan. why​
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

Assume that the sack was initially close to the sea level. Its weight will increase even though its mass stays the same.

Explanation:

The weight of an object typically refers to the size of the planet's gravitational attraction (a force) on this object. That's not the same as the mass of the object. The weight of an object at a position depends on the size of the gravitational field there; on the other hand, the mass of the object is supposed to be same regardless of the location- as long as the object stays intact.

Let g denote the strength of the gravitational field at a certain point. If the mass of an object is m, its weight at that point will be m \cdot g.

Indeed, g \approx 9.81\; \rm N \cdot kg^{-1} on many places of the earth. However, this value is accurate only near the sea level. The equation for universal gravitation is a more general way for finding the strength of the gravitational field at an arbitrary height. Let G denote the constant of universal gravitation, and let M denote the mass of the earth. At a distance r from the center of the earth (where

\displaystyle g \approx \frac{G \cdot M}{r^2}.

The elevation of many places in Bhutan are significantly higher than that of many places in India. Therefore, a sack of potato in Bhutan will likely be further away from the center of the earth (larger r) compared to a sack of potato in India.

Note, that in the approximation, the value of g is (approximately, because the earth isn't perfectly spherical) inversely proportional to the distance from the center of the planet. The gravitational field strength

On the other hand, the weight of an object of fixed mass is proportional to the gravitational field strength. Therefore, the same bag of potatoes will have a smaller weight at most places in Bhutan compared to most places in India.
