In a hospital laboratory, a 10.0 mL sample of gastric juice (predominantly HCl), obtained several hours after a meal, was titrat

ed with 0.1 M NaOH to neutrality; 7.2 mL of NaOH was required. The patient’s stomach contained no ingested food or drink, thus assume that no buffers were present. What was the pH of the gastric juice?

Answer: 1.14

Explanation:

HCl+NaOH\rightarrow NaCl+H_2O

To calculate the molarity of acid, we use the equation given by neutralization reaction:

n_1M_1V_1=n_2M_2V_2

where,

n_1,M_1\text{ and }V_1 are the n-factor, molarity and volume of acid which is HCl

are the n-factor, molarity and volume of base which is NaOH.

We are given:

n_1=1\\M_1=?\\V_1=10.0mL\\n_2=1\\M_2=0.1M\\V_2=7.2mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

1\times M_1\times 10.0=1\times 0.1\times 7.2\\\\M_1=0.072M

To calculate pH of gastric juice:

molarity of H^+ = 0.072

pH=-log[H^+]

pH=-log(0.072)=1.14

Thus the pH of the gastric juice is 1.14

¿Cuál de las siguientes configuraciones globales corresponde a un elemento químico que se comporta como metal? 1 punto [He]2s2 2
yuradex [85]

Answer:

[Ne]3s2

Explanation:

ahora tenemos que mirar cada una de las configuraciones electrónicas de cada átomo de cerca antes de tomar una decisión.

considerando la configuración electrónica más externa de cada una de las especies mostradas;

para la primera configuración, ns2 np6 corresponde a un gas noble.

para la segunda configuración ns2 np3 corresponde a un elemento no metálico del grupo 5.

para la tercera configuración, ns2 corresponde a un elemento metálico del grupo 2.

para la cuarta configuración, ns2 np4 corresponde a un elemento no metálico del grupo 6

How do I solve the following word problem: The half-life of Phosphorus - 32 is 14.3 days. It is used to study a plant's use of f
BaLLatris [955]

Half life is the time that it takes for half of the original value of some amount of a radioactive element to decay.

We have the following equation representing the half-life decay:

A=A_o\times2^{(-\frac{t}{t_{half}})_{}_{}}

A is the resulting amount after t time

Ao is the initial amount = 50 mg

t= Elapsed time

t half is the half-life of the substance = 14.3 days

We replace the know values into the equation to have an exponential decay function for a 50mg sample

A=\text{ 50 }\times2^{\frac{-t}{14.3}}

That would be the answer for a)

To know the P-32 remaining after 84 days we have to replace this value in the equation:

\begin{gathered} A=\text{ 50 }\times2^{\frac{-84}{14.3}} \\ A=0.85\text{ mg} \end{gathered}

So, after 84 days the P-32 remaining will be 0.85 mg
