HCl is a very strong acid. If the concentration of HCl is 0.1M, you can assume that there are 0.1M H+ ions in the solution. What would the pH of that solution be?
- A.
1
- B.
0
- C.
10
- D.
2
- E.
-1
Correct Answer
A. 1Explanation
The pH of a solution is a measure of its acidity or alkalinity. It is calculated using the formula pH = -log[H+]. In this case, the concentration of H+ ions is given as 0.1M. Taking the negative logarithm of 0.1 gives a pH value of 1. This means that the solution is highly acidic.Rate this question:

A buffered solution at 7.0 is distrubed by the addition of HCl. How will it manage to stay at a pH of 7?
- A.
Weak acid of the buffer will add more H+
- B.
Weak acid of the buffer will remove H+
- C.
Weak base of the buffer will add more H+
- D.
Weak base of the buffer will remove H+
Correct Answer
D. Weak base of the buffer will remove H+Explanation
When HCl is added to the buffered solution, it will release H+ ions. The weak base in the buffer will then react with these H+ ions, forming water and removing them from the solution. This reaction helps to maintain the pH of the solution at 7. Therefore, the weak base of the buffer will remove H+ ions to keep the pH at 7.Rate this question:

Which of the following would be classified as hydrophobic?
- A.
Glucose
- B.
Sucrose
- C.
NaCl
- D.
Lon chain fatty acid
- E.
Pepsin
Correct Answer
D. Lon chain fatty acidExplanation
A long chain fatty acid would be classified as hydrophobic because it is nonpolar and does not dissolve in water. Hydrophobic substances tend to repel water and are insoluble in it. Glucose and sucrose are both carbohydrates that are hydrophilic, meaning they dissolve in water. NaCl, also known as table salt, is an ionic compound that dissociates into ions in water and is therefore hydrophilic. Pepsin is an enzyme that is also hydrophilic and soluble in water.Rate this question:

If CO2 is added to water, the pH will..
- A.
Go up
- B.
Go down
- C.
Not change
- D.
Barney Stinson.
Correct Answer
B. Go downExplanation
When CO2 is added to water, it reacts with water molecules to form carbonic acid (H2CO3). This carbonic acid dissociates into hydrogen ions (H+) and bicarbonate ions (HCO3-). The increase in hydrogen ions leads to an increase in acidity, causing the pH of the water to decrease. Therefore, the correct answer is "go down."Rate this question:
-
- 9.
Adding bicarbonate to a solution will cause the pH to..
- A.
Go up
- B.
Go down
- C.
Not change
- D.
Barney Stinson.
Correct Answer
A. Go upExplanation
When bicarbonate is added to a solution, it acts as a base and reacts with water to release hydroxide ions (OH-). The increase in hydroxide ions leads to an increase in the concentration of hydroxide ions relative to the concentration of hydrogen ions (H+), resulting in a higher pH. Therefore, adding bicarbonate to a solution causes the pH to go up.Rate this question:

Concerning intracellular and extracellular fluid, we know that extracellular fluid contains..
- A.
More K+
- B.
More Na+
- C.
More phosphate
- D.
More magnesium
- E.
All are true
Correct Answer
B. More Na+Explanation
Extracellular fluid contains more Na+ because Na+ is the primary cation in extracellular fluid, while K+ is the primary cation in intracellular fluid. This is due to the sodium-potassium pump, which actively transports Na+ out of the cell and K+ into the cell, maintaining the concentration gradient. Therefore, it is true that extracellular fluid contains more Na+.Rate this question:

During which phase of mitosis do the centromeres line up along the equater of the cell?
- A.
Interphase
- B.
Prophase
- C.
Metaphase
- D.
Anaphase
- E.
Telophase
Correct Answer
C. MetaphaseExplanation
During metaphase of mitosis, the centromeres line up along the equator of the cell. This is the stage where the chromosomes, consisting of two sister chromatids, are fully condensed and attached to spindle fibers. The centromeres are located at the center of each chromosome and are responsible for connecting the sister chromatids. The alignment of centromeres at the equator ensures that the sister chromatids will be separated correctly during the subsequent stage of mitosis, anaphase. This alignment is essential for the equal distribution of genetic material to the daughter cells.Rate this question:

If a cell has 46 chromosomes, how many centrosomes would it have when it is in metaphase?
- A.
46
- B.
23
- C.
1
- D.
2
Correct Answer
D. 2Explanation
During metaphase, the cell's chromosomes align in the middle of the cell. Each chromosome is attached to a spindle fiber by a structure called a centromere. Since a cell with 46 chromosomes would have 2 copies of each chromosome, it would also have 2 centrosomes, one at each end of the cell, each responsible for organizing the spindle fibers and ensuring proper chromosome alignment during cell division.Rate this question:
