Answer:

The doctor is discussing an Ocular Hypertension disease.

Explanation:

If we have a small space with a defined volume like in this case an eye, when we fill this space with a liquid, the liquid will occupy the whole volume available, and when it is much liquid or fluid, and the volume of the eye can not expand it will start to generate an internal pressure. This higher pressure is called Hypertension.

A gold wire has a diameter of 1.00 mm. What length of this wire contains exactly 1.00 mol of gold? (density of Au = 17.0 g/cm3)
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 7160 cm

Explanation:

Data

diameter = 1 mm

length = ?

amount of gold = 1 mol

density = 17 g/cm³

Process

1.- Get the atomic mass of gold

Atomic mass = 197 g

then, 197g ------------ 1 mol

2.- Calculate the volume of this wire

density = mass/volume

volume = mass/density

volume = 197/17

volume = 5.7 cm³

3.- Calculate the length of the wire

Volume = πr²h

solve for h

h = volume /πr²

radius = 0.05 cm

substitution

h = 5.7/(3.14 x 0.05²)

h = 5.7 / 0.0025

h = 7159.2 cm ≈ 7160 cm

Place each charge form of alanine under the pH condition where it would be the predominant form. The pKa values for the carboxyl
damaskus [11]

Answer:

(A) pH < 1 the predominant form is the cation: H3C-C(H)(NH3+)-COOH  

(B) pH = pl the predominant form is the zwitterion H3C-C(H)(NH3+)-COO-

(C) pH > 11 the predominant form is the anion: H3C-C(H)(NH2)-COO-

(D) Does not occurs in any significant pH: H3C-C(H)(NH2)-COOH

Explanation:

Amino acids are bifunctional because they have an amine group and a carboxyl group. The amine group is a weak base and the carboxyl group is a weak acid, but the pKa of both groups will depend on the whole structure of the amino acid. Also, every amino acid has an isoelectric point (pI), which means the pH were the predominant form of the amino acid is the zwitterion. The structure of the alanine (CH3CH2NH2COOH) shows it has the carboxyl group at C1 with a pKa1 of 2.3  and the amino group at C2 whit the pKa2 of 9.7. The isoelectric poin (pI) of Alanine is 6. Consequently, the protonation of the molecule will depend on the pH of the solution. There are three possibilities:

1) If the pH is under the pKa of the carboxyl group (2.3) the predominant form will be with the amino group protonated, forming a cation (CH3CH(NH3+)COOH).

2) If the pH is between pKa1 (2.3) and pKa2 (9.7) the predominant form will be the zwitterion (CH3CH(NH3+)(COO-)).

3) If the pH is upper the pKa2 of the amino group (9.7) the predominant form will be with the carboxyl group deprotonated, forming an anion (CH3CHNH2(COO-)).

The temperature at the boiling point remained constant despite the continued addition of heat by the bunsen burner. What was the
Paul [167]

Concept:

<em><u>Latent Heat of Vaporization</u></em>: It is defined as the amount of heat required to change the state of mater without changing of its temperature.

From the given question, the temperature at the boiling point remained constant despite the continued addition of heat by the Bunsen burner. <em>Actually,</em> this amount of heat is used by water to break the intermolecular bonds between the water molecules in the form of latent heat that converts the liquid state of water into vapor state of water.

Hence, the correct option will be d.<u>The energy was used to break the intermolecular bonds between the water molecules. </u>

Calculate the ratio of effusion rates of cl2 to f2 .
Lelechka [254]
<span>Answer: Graham's law of gaseous effusion states that the rate of effusion goes by the inverse root of the gas' molar mass. râšM = constant Therefore for two gases the ratio rates is given by: r1 / r2 = âš(M2 / M1) For Cl2 and F2: r(Cl2) / r(F2) = âš{(37.9968)/(70.906)} = 0.732 (to 3.s.f.)</span>
