What element is found in liver and is needed to prevent anemia or tired blood.

Chemistry
1 answer:
DochEvi [55]3 years ago
3 0


The element found in the liver that helps prevent anemia is iron.

Iron is an essential element for blood production. Close to 70% of the body's iron is found in the red blood cells. In the red blood cells it is a vital ingredient of hemoglobin, the red pigment that gives blood its red color. In the muscle cells, iron is found as myoglobin.

Iron is stored mostly in the liver as ferritin or hemosiderin.

When iron stores are finished or exhausted, the condition is called iron depletion. When the shortage of iron is severe, it results in a condition known as iron deficiency anemia whereby the red blood cells do not have enough hemoglobin.

a sample of water with a mass of 648.00 kg at 298 K is heated with 87 kh of energy. the specific heat of water is 1 J-1 kg K-1.
Stels [109]

q = mCΔT

The correct specific heat capacity of water is <em>4.187 kJ/(kg.K)</em>.

ΔT = q/mC = 87 kJ/[648.00 kg x 4.187 kJ/(kg.K)] = 87 kJ/(2713 kJ/K) = 0.032 K

Tf = Ti + ΔT = 298 K + 0.032 K = 298.032 K

Which of the following weak interactions would require the least amount of energy to disrupt? Group of answer choices
SpyIntel [72]

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A hydrogen bond is defined as a weak bond that is formed between an electropositive atom (generally hydrogen atom) and an electronegative atom like oxygen, nitrogen and fluorine.

An ionic bond is defined as a bond formed between a metal and a non-metal and in this bond transfer of electron takes place from metal to non-metal. And, due to the presence of opposite charges on the combining atoms there exists a strong force of attraction.

Vander waal forces are defined as the weak electric forces which tend to attract neutral molecules towards each other in gases, liquefied and solidified gases.

Vander waal forces are very weak forces.

Thus, we can conclude that Van der walas interactions are weak interactions would require the least amount of energy to disrupt.

A chemist titrates 150.0 mL of a 0.2653 M carbonic acid (H2CO3) solution with 0.2196 M NaOH solution at 25 °C. Calculate the pH
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

9.3

Explanation:

This is long and complicated so get ready

We are going to use the conjugate base of carbonic acid with water to make carbonic acid and OH- (Na is simply a spectator ion and is irrelavent here)

Let the conjugate base be A- and Carbonic acid be HA

A- + H20 ⇄ HA + OH-

To find the concentration of A- we must find the concentration of the reactants given. We know this will be equal because it is a strong base and all of it disassociates.

to get moles of acid we take the concentration and multiply by liters to cancel

.2653 x .150 = .039795 mol HA

Because it is at equivalence point we know the moles will be equal. We are given the concentration so we only have to solve for liters

We plug it into the equation and found: .181 L

Now use moles and combined volums to fins concentrarion which is .120 M

Now plug that use the Ka converted to Kb to find the cincentrations of HA and OH-

Ka is (10^-3.60) = 2.4E-4

Kb x Ka is 10^-14

Kb = 3.98E-11

Now we know Kb = [HA] [OH] / [A-]

Solve for this through algebra by using x for the values you dont know

youll find x^2 = 3.3E-10

X = 1.8 E -5

this is the OH- concentration

-log [oh] = pOH

pOH = 4.73

We know 14-pOH = ph so pH= 9.3
