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

hi, I need help with this question. Is it possible to determine the position and energy of an electron at the same time? why or
butalik [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

I searched it up:

"The Heisenberg uncertainty principle states that the exact position and momentum of an electron cannot be simultaneously determined. This is because electrons simply don't have a definite position, and direction of motion, at the same time! ... We know the direction of motion."

Hope this helps :D

After the reaction between sodium borohydride and the ketone is complete, the reaction mixture is treated with water and H2SO4 t
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

The hydrogen can be gotten from the added Acid or water during "workup".

Explanation:

Basically we can say that the reaction describe in this question is a Reduction reaction because of the chemical compound called sodium borohydride. In the reaction described above we can see that there is a Reduction of ketone to alcohol by the compound; sodium borohydride.

For the reduction Reaction to occur the C-O bond must break so as to enable the formation of O-H bond and C-H bond.

So, "the reaction mixture is treated with water and H2SO4 to produce the desired alcohol", thus, the oxygen will definitely pick up the hydrogen from H2SO4 or H2O.

What is the similarities of freezing of water and electrolysis of water​
erastova [34]

Answer:

Electrolysis of water is the process of using electricity to decompose water into oxygen and hydrogen gas. Hydrogen gas released in this way can be used as hydrogen fuel, or remixed with the oxygen to create oxyhydrogen gas, which is used in welding and other applications.Ordinarily, the freezing point of water and melting point is 0 °C or 32 °F. The temperature may be lower if supercooling occurs or if there are impurities present in the water which could cause freezing point depression to occur. Under certain conditions, water may remain a liquid as cold as -40 to -42°
