Blood samples for research or medical tests sometimes have heparin added. Why is this done? ​

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: It is essential for accurate results that the correct volume of blood is sampled to achieve a correct concentration (and dilution, if liquid heparin is used), and that blood and anticoagulant are well mixed immediately after sampling.

Calculate the molar solubility of NiS in 3.1 M NH3. g

Answers

Answer:

The molar solubility of NiS is 7.7 * 10⁻⁷ M

Explanation:

To answer this question, we need to keep in mind two equilibriums.

First, we have the solubilization of NiS:

NiS ⇄ Ni²⁺ + S²⁻   ksp= 3.0 * 10⁻²¹  (we know this from standard tables)

Second, we have the formation of the complex:

Ni²⁺ + 6NH₃ ⇄ [Ni(NH₃)₆]²⁺   kf=2.0 * 10⁻⁸

Combine the two equilibriums and we have

NiS + 6NH₃ ⇄ [Ni(NH₃)₆]²⁺ + S²⁻  K= ksp * kf =6.0* 10⁻¹³=([S^(2-)][Ni(NH3)6^(+2)])/([NH3]^(6))

The molar solubility s is equal to both [Ni(NH₃)₆²⁺] and [S²]

At equilibrium, [NH₃]= 3,1 M - 6s

Thus, if we replace those terms in the formula for K, we're left with:

(s^(2) )/((3,1-6s)^(2))=6*10^(-13)

Using an approximation we can ignore the denominator and we have

  • s²=6.0 * 10⁻¹³
  • s=7.7 * 10⁻⁷

A balloon has a volume of 7.00 liters at a pressure of 740 mm Hg. If the temperature remains constant, at what pressure will the volume decrease to 2.00 liters?a. 749 mm Hg
b. 52.9 mm Hg
c. 211 mm Hg
d. 2590 mm Hg

Answers

Answer:

D

Explanation:

P1 x V1 = P2 x V2

7.00(740) = x(2.00)

2590 mm Hg

(b) How many atoms are directly bonded to the central atom in a trigonal bipyramidal molecule?

i. three
ii. four
iii. five
iv. six

(c) How many atoms are directly bonded to the central atom in an octahedral molecule?

i. three
ii. four
iii. six
iv. eight

Answers

Answer:

a) ii

b)iii

c)iii

Explanation:

three atoms directly bonded then only it is possible to achieve trigonal planar

trigonal bipyramidal means five atoms should attach to central atom

for octahedral six atoms must directly connected to central atom
