Answer:

A. AN INCREASE IN BLOOD ACIDITY NEAR THE TISSUES

B. AN INCREASE IN BLOOD TEMPERATURE NEAR THE TISSUES.

C. THE PRESENCE OF A PRESSURE GRADIENT FOR OXYGEN.

Explanation:

Metabolically active tissues need more oxygen to carry out theirs functions. They are involved during excercise and other active phsiological conditions.

There is the reduction in the amount of oxygen reaching these tissues resulting in carbon IV oxide build up, lactic acid formation and temperature increases.

The acidity of the blood near the tissues is increased due to the accumulation of carbon IV oxide in the tissues resulting into a decreased pH. This reduces the affinity of heamoglobin to oxygen in the blood near the metabollically active tissues.

There is also the increase in temperature causing rapid offload of oxygen from oxy-heamoglobin molecules.

The partial pressure of oxygen gradient also affects the rate of oxygen offload by the blood. In metabollically active tissues, the partial pressure of oxygen is reduced in the tissues causing a direct offloading of oxygen to the tissues.

A chemist wants to extract copper metal from copper chloride solution. The chemist places 0.50 grams of aluminum foil in a solut
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

Approximately 0.36 grams, because copper (II) chloride acts as a limiting reactant.

Explanation:

  • It is a stichiometry problem.
  • We should write the balance equation of the mentioned chemical reaction:

<em>2Al + 3CuCl₂ → 3Cu + 2AlCl₃.</em>

  • It is clear that 2.0 moles of Al foil reacts with 3.0 moles of CuCl₂ to produce 3.0 moles of Cu metal and 2.0 moles of AlCl₃.
  • Also, we need to calculate the number of moles of the reported masses of Al foil (0.50 g) and CuCl₂ (0.75 g) using the relation:

<em>n = mass / molar mass</em>

  • The no. of moles of Al foil = mass / atomic mass = (0.50 g) / (26.98 g/mol) = 0.0185 mol.
  • The no. of moles of CuCl₂ = mass / molar mass = (0.75 g) / (134.45 g/mol) = 5.578 x 10⁻³  mol.
  • <em>From the stichiometry Al foil reacts with CuCl₂ with a ratio of 2:3.</em>

∴ 3.85 x 10⁻³  mol of Al foil reacts completely with 5.578 x 10⁻³  mol of CuCl₂ with <em>(2:3)</em> ratio and CuCl₂ is the limiting reactant while Al foil is in excess.

  • From the stichiometry 3.0 moles of  CuCl₂ will produce the same no. of moles of copper metal (3.0 moles).
  • So, this reaction will produce 5.578 x 10⁻³ mol of copper metal.
  • Finally, we can calculate the mass of copper produced using:

mass of Cu = no. of moles x Atomic mass of Cu = (5.578 x 10⁻³  mol)(63.546 g/mol) = 0.354459 g ≅ 0.36 g.

  • <u><em>So, the answer is:</em></u>

<em>Approximately 0.36 grams, because copper (II) chloride acts as a limiting reactant.</em>

During an exothermic reaction, ΔH for the reactants was 890 kJ/mol. Which of the following statements is correct about the ΔH fo
kaheart [24]

Answer:-A. It is less than 890 kJ/mol because the amount of energy required to break bonds is less than the amount of energy released in forming bonds.

Explanation: Endothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy of the product is greater than the energy of the reactants. The total energy is absorbed in the form of heat and \Delta H for the reaction comes out to be positive.

Exothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy of the product is lesser than the energy of the reactants. The total energy is released in the form of heat and \Delta H for the reaction comes out to be negative.

In the formation of new bonds more energy is released than is required to break the existing bonds, heat is released.

In the formation of bonds less energy is released than is required to break the existing bonds, heat is absorbed.
