metals. Neither will dissolve in hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid. The "oxidizing" acid nitric acid‚ HN03‚ is required. In acidic solutions the nitrate ion is an excellent oxidizer‚ and it will oxidize Ag(s) to Ag+(aq) and Cu(s) to Cu2+(aq). The reduction product is the gas NO. As the colorless nitrogen monoxide gas forms‚ it immediately reacts with the oxygen in the air to produce the orange-brown gas N02. The half-reactions for the oxidation of silver and copper by nitric acid are as follows:

1. Definitions: Omphalocele and gastroschisis represent two major congenital abdominal wall defects that are similar in presentation and appearance in the neonatal period‚ yet they have distinct differences that will affect treatments/outcomes. a. Omphalocele: an anterior abdominal wall defect at the base of the umbilical cord with herniation of abdominal contents through the umbilical ring. The herniated organs are covered by the peritoneal sac‚ amnion and Wharton’s jelly. With the large variation

Tables of Normal Values (As of January 2013) Note: Values and units of measurement listed in these tables are derived from several resources. Substantial variation exists in the ranges quoted as “normal” and may vary depending on the assay used by different laboratories. Therefore‚ these tables should be considered as directional only. Some values (e.g. hormones) vary by gender‚ age‚ time of day and condition (e.g. pregnancy) so a text on endocrinology should be consulted for complete data

potential‚ the sodium potassium pump is turned off. When a stimulus is applied to a neurone‚ the resting potential is (-70mV) is reversed – this is the action potential (depolarisation). The energy of the stimulus causes the intrinsic sodium voltage-gated channels to open‚ allowing sodium ions to diffuse into the axon along their electrochemical gradient. Entry of these Na+ ions causes the inside of the axon to be less negative. As threshold is reached‚ there is a greater influx of sodium ions and the
