Answer:
(a) 0.047 g (b) 0.0016 oz (c) 0.0001 lb
Explanation:
The given mass of the sodium in the slice = 47 mg
(a) Mass has to be calculated in grams
The conversion of mg to g is shown below as:
1 mg = 10⁻³ g
So,
<u>Mass of sodium = 47 × 10⁻³ g = 0.047 g</u>
(b) Mass has to be calculated in ounces
The conversion of ounces to g is shown below as:
453.6 g = 16 oz
Or,
1 g = 16 / 453.6 oz
So,
<u>Mass of sodium = (0.047 × 16) / 453.6 oz = 0.0016 oz</u>
(c) Mass has to be calculated in pounds
The conversion of pounds to g is shown below as:
1 lb = 453.6 g
Or,
1 g = 1/ 453.6 lb
So,
<u>Mass of sodium = (0.047 × 1) / 453.6 oz = 0.0001 lb</u>
The second option only.
<h3>Explanation</h3>
A base neutralizes an acid when the two reacts to produce water and a salt.
Sulfuric acid H₂SO₄ is the acid here. There are more than one classes of bases that can neutralize H₂SO₄. Among the options, there are:
Metal hydroxides
Metal hydroxides react with sulfuric acid to produce water and the sulfate salt of the metal.
.
The formula for calcium sulfate
in option A is spelled incorrectly. Why? The charge on each calcium
is +2. The charge on each sulfate ion
is -2. Unlike
ions, it takes only one
ion to balance the charge on each
ion. As a result,
and
ions in calcium sulfate exist on a 1:1 ratio.
.
Ammonia, NH₃
Ammonia NH₃ can also act as a base and neutralize acids. NH₃ exists as NH₄OH in water:
.
The ion
acts like a metal cation. Similarly to the metal hydroxides, NH₃ (or NH₄OH) neutralizes H₂SO₄ to produce water and a salt:
.
The formula of the salt (NH₄)₂SO₄ in the fourth option spelled the ammonium ion incorrectly.
As part of the salt (NH₄)₂SO₄, the ammonium ion NH₄⁺ is one of the products of this reaction and can't neutralize H₂SO₄ any further.
Answer:
Explanation:
Mechanical digestion involves physically breaking down food substances into smaller particles to more efficiently undergo chemical digestion. The role of chemical digestion is to further degrade the molecular structure of the ingested compounds by digestive enzymes into a form that is absorbable into the bloodstream.
